I take low-dose naltrexone (current dosage is 2 mg/day), and I have found it to be very effective for the muscle aches and pains that I was having. It certainly isn’t a cure and doesn’t help with my fatigue or post-exertional malaise, but I am better with it than I was without it.

May I ask how you are working through the post exertions malaise? This is a new symptom for me and I’m finding it very challenging to understand and manage.

Hi Athena,

My LC Dr. wanted me to try this and I was reluctant. I read that it was used to treat alcoholism? Also, it had a pretty large co-pay and comes from a specialty drug provider. Co-pay was like $160. Right now I’m fighting SSD and can’t work. I just started Cymbalta. It helps a bit on nuero pain, but like yourself, nothing else.
