Has anyone tried Low Dose Naltrexone for pain relief?

Very helpful comments! Thank you!🙏 The only thing I've noticed so far is that my (self diagnosed) PTSD is gone. I noticed that when I had a flare up this past week, I didn't mentally spiral at any point. I am finding it easier to stay present and feel more in control of how I'm feeling emotionally at any point. Overall I feel less anxious. Seems like that is a good enough reason to stay on it for me!

Hi, I have EDS and am on LDN and love it. There’s a doctor near me who gives it to most of the EDS patients and some do amazing and some it doesn’t help at all. I couldn’t tell if it was helping or not until the pharmacy had issues and I couldn’t take it for a week. Suddenly any time something or someone touched me, it hurt. That’s when I realized it helped a lot with those symptoms. Keep in mind that it takes a long time to build up in your system so it’s effect may not be obvious, especially the first few months.

I have some and don’t use it all the time anymore, just when I have a flare up but I love it.

I have been on LDN for like 2 years. I have fibromyalgia and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. It has helped me a lot. There is a YouTube video that shows exactly what it does and stuff, I will look it up for you

I’ve been using LDN for about 6 months now. I’ve had no side affects. I use it for inflammation/aches and pains caused by POTS and autoimmune issues. My doctor was able to send it to an online pharmacy based in Canada. I order online 👍

LDN is still being researched as far as I understand. Using it for fibro is an off label use of the drug. But it is very effective for many fibro patients myself included. It cut my pain from an 8/10 to a 4/10 on average and adding lyrica on top of the LDN most days im pain free and max pain of 2/10 unless I do something major to trigger a flare. It’s a low risk medication with very few side effects. I get every side effect there is and then some with most meds and I have no negative side effects from LDN. Not sure about taking it while pregnant though as I don’t yet have children and am not trying to at this time.
