Hi Colleen Welcome to the tmic. LDN stands for low dose naltrexone. A website that explains its use is www.lowdosenaltrexone.org. I had forgotten about the discussion that was on the list about a year ago until Akua mentioned it in her post so I went to the website to read about it again. It's a drug designed to help heroin adicts and alcholics, but has been found to help many people suffering from various autoimmune diseases when used at very low doses. That's all I dare say without going back and quoting the website.
I'm at 4.5 yrs of TM and always looking for something to help with pain that doesn't cause loss of memory and concentration.
