To Marivel, ME and CFS

[Guest guest]

Hi, I wanted to comment on your inquiry about LDN.

The web site (low dose naltrexone.org) states that there should be a

50% improvement of CFS on LDN.

For fibromyalgia it is as much as 95% in pain improvement and energy.

I know of two people that used very small doses, about 1.5 mg to 2 mg

of Naltrexone that had ME. They complained of being extra tired.

One quit taking it that had ME.

The person I know that has CFS and ME is still on it at 4.5 mg and

said she has good improvement with more energy and can get up earlier

and go to bed later. She is not going to stop taking LDN.

I have fibromyalgia and chronic back problems. I take 75% less pain

meds now after being on it for almost 6 months. I wake up more

refreshed with less pain and stiffness.

I didn't take my 3.5 mg of LDN for two nights, thinking I might not

need it anymore. By the second morning I was feeling like I did

before I started taking LDN, which means that all my symptoms came

back in full flare. I know it works very well for fibromyalgia. My

pressure point pain is almost non-existant when I take my nightly

pill.

I hope this helps you decide to try it. The main reason for using it

is to fool the brain into making more endorphins, our body's natural

pain reliever. It also stimulates our T-cells into establishing

better immunity against over production of antigens that " fight

against ourselves. " (A simple way to put a complicated explanation

of cellular activities.) I hope this helps you. mymisspriss
