Re: Bone Pain
I am taking a wide amount of vitamins to stop the inflammation, including 10,000 iu vitamin D daily, 400 iu vitamin e, and 15,000 iu vitamin A.
That is a lot of vitamin A if it is true vitamin A and not beta carotene. That level of true vitamin A daily can cause bone deterioration.
I am starting on something called low dose naltrexone or LDN, it is used to help proper immune system function to combat the inflammation.
Naltrexone is also known as Narcan because it is a narcotic antagonist. Personally I can think of many much better and safer ways to reduce inflammation in the body such as focusing directly on the adrenals with natural vitamin C and pantothenic acid sources as well as adaptogenic herbs. This will also help with the elevated rT3 levels. Also make sure to stay away from stimulants like caffeine.
For the inflammation directly there are also herbs such as Chinese licorice root and yucca root that are steroidal anti-inflammatories and both support adrenal function. On the licorice root make sure it is the Chinese licorice root (G. uralensis), which is calming, and not the American variety (G. glabra), which is stimulating.
