Guest guest Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 No, I have not tried LDN for the fibro pain. I don't know if I'm looking for a miracle here but from things I've read got the impression that the Fibro will go away after i am able to clear my rt3 and treat thyroid. The thought of any more meds makes me sad. I hope my expectations aren't too high. Any imporvement would be life changing at this point - I'll take anything I can get. I believe you - this is the right place for me. Thanks- holly > > Holly, the symptoms you posted sound like me 25 years ago prior to > being diagnosed with hashi's and having my adrenals dealt with.
