Low-dose naltrexone-anyone here use it?

I was reading about this on Facebook and it looked interesting. I'm not sure how it's supposed to help and whether it does help.

 

Thoughts? Experiences?

Hi,

 

Been giving it to my DS23 for about a year now....4.5 mg every night. Started lower though.

 

Honestly, can't say that I've seen any improvement with it, I have asked our LLMD to stop it but they said no...supposed to be good for the immune system.

Everyone in my family has been taking this for 2.5 years. I cannot tell if it helps, as it works to regulate the immune system and we are still working through infections.

 

One thing that I find intriguing is that for 20 years I was ANA+ with no specific dx, although I was worked up for Lupus but did not meet the criteria. After 2.5 years of treating Lyme & Co and yeast with meds and supps, I am no longer ANA+. Not sure if the LDN had anything to do with this, but our doc is adamant about us all taking it.
