He mentioned that stopping low dose naltrexone (which he said was helping him) coincided with his relapse. Seems like an important detail.

There are lots of awesome videos on this channel that tell this story! They helped me get back to running as much as I want each week in the mountains and back to full time construction and rock climbing. Recovery can be slow but I think I am stronger than I was before I was ill and have many more skills like the guest mentions in this video. It’s a blessing in disguise

Thank you Raelan and Dermot ☘️.When I saw the cap I knew you were a Paddy 💚 Dermot I am originally from Ireland and having lived here in Canada now for almost Fifty years One may adapt to the new country in many ways .But for some or alot of us our country of heritage still leaves a strong imprint in our personality . Now a retired nurse and after so many years of shift work and on call with a lot of responsibility placed on me became of my choice of work environment. I got very worn out and did not listen to my body ..I believe it was a precursor for me getting so Ill with Covid plus a few more factors. I find the boundaries issues is one of the hardest to enforce. As us Irish are very sociable people.We love to make people feel welcome.Its just who we are as a people.😊 I am still going through Long Covid since Spring 2024 😞But I am improving...I believe pacing is one of the most important aspects to this illness. Saying No to people and certain situations is of upmost importance.I am also finding others things that are helping me...Its a very personal journey as you have mentioned. Be kind to Thanking you for sharing your experience all the best with a full recovery.🙏 Blessings to you your wife and your expected baby. Gerri on Vancouver Island ☘️🙏☕

Loved this, a gentle walk together through the journey and not a monologue of sickness. (I hope i can do that when i finally come on!!Though nerves might make that harder.) Yes, make stickers and t-shirts and sell Raelan merch! Haha. Also Dermot, try to actively envison a wonderful time with your baby and wife and try to interrupt the catastrophising thoughts. Instead of what if...negative, think what if...positive. in fact, imagine the best possible outcomes and imagine them in detail regularly. This is brain retraining. And can we stop using the word 'selfish'? It's not selfish to show self-compassion or self-kindness, place healthy boundaries, or use our voice to speak ❤

Thank you, Raelan and Dermot. 😊 I'm on Low Dose Naltrexone too and it's helped the daily headaches and brain fog, which has been great, but it's only very, very, minimally helped with energy for me, of course we are all different. All the best Dermot, especially with the arrival of your precious little baby. I hope your energy returns to it's fullest soon. Blessings to all. ❤

Low Dose Naltrexone is also part of my recovery plan but it’s been very helpful it that it’s brought my inflammation markers back towards normal range. I’ve been on it for a couple of months and I’m feeling the benefits of waking more refreshed in the morning. It’s only one piece of the jigsaw puzzle.

@@Truerealism747 LDN is a powerful tool but it doesnt address the cause of the pain - the cause is still the brain generating it - it can bring the inflammation down and put you in a nice place to then do more work with the brain and its learnt patterns

Lots of repressed anger and conflict avoidance with this that needs to be addressed. I was like this plus a people pleaser and I had to lots of work feeling the repressed anger and processing it, work on toxic shame, and becoming empowered (and feeling good enough) with good boundaries.

Makes you wonder if you can try to catch CFS early or you have to let it take its course hmm
@XMagiX21 28 күн бұрын
I have thought about this. I think everybody has to go through the stages of shock/confusion/fear, anger/ grief, acceptance, before going towards recovering - maybe these stages are actually all a part of recovery itself. Maybe one can try to go through them quicker by gathering a lot of knowledge, but go through them, you will.

It is normal to worry. You can do it with the baby. I have experience with a very small child and cfs. I learned a lot of parenting things much faster, because I had to. And because of it we have a very harmonic beautiful relationship.

How much is low dose Naltrexone?My doctor doesn't prescribe it.
@jog5289 26 күн бұрын
Hi there. In NZ, LDN costs $100, for a 3 mths supply of 4.5mg capsules, from a Compounding Pharmacy. My Functional and Integrative Dr prescribes it for me and recommends the LDN Research Trust website for good information about LDN. I don't know if you can get LDN cheaper elsewhere, but there are a list of prescribers for various countries on the website, and the lady who runs the website is very helpful if you need more help. Most conventional doctors don't know about LDN; it's mainly used by alternative practitioners. (Originally titrating the dose up was quite expensive for me, as it was prescribed in a tonne of 0.5mg capsules, but once I was on the full dose my Dr recommended, it was the price I said above.) I hope that helps. All the best.😊

Ai, that is so not true. Many people who have recovered have had numerous infections, flu's covid, and still dont get cfs anymore. Even Raelan told she got sick but didnt had a relapse. If yoi have a relapse it means that you are not fully recovered yet. And that is oke.
