Neuropathy: What works and what are scams?

Howdy. I want to thank you for bringing Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) to my attention. I have chronic pain, non-diabetic, caused by treatment for cancer ten years ago. It looks like the LDN dosage is low, 1 mg - 1.5 mg. I am going to talk to my primary care about this.

Did LDN help you sleep better? Did you combine it with physical therapy?

Thanks again for bringing up this topic. Best, CB

My LDN dosage wound up being 4.5mg and I had to take it at lunchtime (or earlier) to not affect my sleep (vivid dreams). From a pain reduction standpoint, yes it helped with sleep.

No PT involved as mine is purely sensory related. I do combine it with a metric ton of supplements as LDN was 70-75% effective and was able to get to 95-99% with supplements that target inflammation.

Of course now it is probably 35-40% effective and supplements providing another 10-15% which either means I have grown used to the dose or my condition has worsened. My guess is the latter.
