@rwinney @patrick17 Hi Guys, we received an order from a pharmacy in NJ about 2 months ago and it too has been "just sitting" on a counter. Linda is a good candidate as she takes no opiates whatsoever. But on any given night she worries so much about getting to sleep that she is afraid it might affect it negatively. I believe her plan is to wait until the weather cools down to start it, as she feels she sleeps better when it's not hot out. I too want to express my thanks to you Patrick, for thinking to update us on your status. Sorry to hear it hasn't helped so far. Wishing for it to start to work at the 5mg dose. Best, Hank

@jesfactsmon Hi Hank, I can understand your wife’s reluctance to take low dose naltrexone. I think it is often prescribed to take at night. I tried taking it at night, but I was tossing and turning all night. After a couple of nights I switched to taking it in the morning. I didn’t have problems with sleeping then. There’s a low dose naltrexone group on Facebook and some people there said they take LDN in the morning. Apparently it still helps them. The unfortunate thing with LDN is that for some people it takes several months before it works, if it does work. On the positive side, there are few side effects and you can stop taking it at anytime.
