LDN and Raynaud's Phenomenon or Syndrome

[Guest guest]

I had Reynauds before LDN and I still have it and have been on LDN for about four years, There was some initial improvement but that was short lived....It is always worse in the cold weather.... But hell, I'm not complaining, it's helped so much else........

I've been on LDN since March 2010 for FM/CFS and it's worked awesome. I lost 35

lbs. without trying in 28 days and then another 25 lbs a few months later and

again I was not trying. I went from a size 14 to a size 2. I've been under a

lot of stress since June 28th and in July I started noticing something that is

called Raynaud's Phenomenon/Syndrome happening to me when I'm stressed out and

some times even when the temperature is cold.

Have any of you experienced Raynaud's after starting LDN?

Thank you in advance for your responses.

Rae,I have Raynauds and have been on the LDN for about 3 months. First at 1.5 for about 40 days and now I am on 3.0 m.g. I still am having problems with my hands in the cold. I live in VA and we have been having very cold weather. My hands just get very cold and so do my feet. I sometimes cannot get warm. I can't say that the LDN has helped my Raynauds, but it has seemed to help my fibro pain, connective tissue, and some Sjogrens symptoms especially my dry mouth.Don't think that it would cause Raynauds. It seems once you have one auto-immune issues you can always get others. (my opinion from my experience).Hang in there.From: Rae <raehamilton07@...>low dose naltrexone Sent: Mon, January 3, 2011 1:29:48 PMSubject: [low dose naltrexone] LDN and Raynaud's Phenomenon or Syndrome

I have also been on LDN 1.5mg for 5 weeks, and have had

severe Raynaud's for 7 years. LDN has not helped, but

something else might have given minor relief: 7.5mcg

slow-release T3 daily (but consult thyroid group, they

recommend fast-release, not slow-release).

Nara,

up your LDN dose to a more therapeutic dose like 2mg, 3mg.
