Has anyone with ELP tried Low Dose Naltrexone. It is prescribed by Functional Medicine MDs? I have oral LP and am considering taking this, hoping it will help and possibly prevent ELP. Low Dose Naltrexone has a large following and is popular for many conditions, including autoimmune.

I started with OLP about 12yrs ago dx'd by a dentist. I have ulcerative. Have had two biosies. It was off and on for a few years the suddenly just stopped going away.

I have been choking on my saliva for years. I have gerd with hot burning regurgitation seemingly out of nowhere.

I fell and injured/?tore my gluteal muscle 5 months ago but cant get a dr to diagnose or even look at me. Its gotten much worse that i can barely walk even with my crutches.
I say that because my dr put me on prednisone 15mg 3xweek she says it's safe but it doesnt feel like a long term solution. I've had her for 4 years and she only looked in my mouth for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I have always felt like I get good care. Now I don't know.

I have never heard of ELP. I see my gastro next month. Will ask.

I don't have the resilience the rest of you do. I'm overwhelmed with pain even on prednisone. I want to just run away.

I have other autoimmune stuff like chronic pain CRPS, hashimotos, etc.
