We have quite a mix of issues around the house. My wife has to deal with T1 diabetes. Rheumatoid Arthritis is my primary demon. 800 mg ibuprofen at bedtime for the last 25 years. It is getting less effective as the RA gets worse. I don't visit my doctor often. I did have an appointment last week with sleep apnea and RA on my topic of discussion. No action yet. Between the RA pain and the apnea AND my wife's low glucose alarms going off, it is getting more difficult to get a decent night's sleep.

Thanks for the recommendation. At this point I have zero prescription drugs to treat issues. All OTC and relatively cheap.

Prednisone can help with quick relief from RA. Though many rail against it, it works. Also, Hydroxychloroquine used to be a common Rx for RA, but thanks to Biden and Fauci it is a challenge to obtain in the USA. Blame Trump. It is OTC in Canada and many other countries. If you know anyone in Canada or just visiting there, have them pick you up some. It is relatively inexpensive. . I would love to have a 10 year supply. The HCQ you can make at home.

Naltrexone is dirt cheap because you are cutting up the pill into at least 1/10. Several people here use it with Wellbutrin for auto immune issues but Wellbutrin gets so many bad reviews for side effects I dont do it.

The LDN trust has places to get the drug if your Doctors don’t cooperate with a prescription. It really is worth a try unless it is contraindicated for you.

I have a hydroxychloriquine prescription but elected to try LDN first. If you do HCQ you have to keep a watch on your eyes....and watch to see how it effects you given it relies on P450 enzymes to metabolize as per newly released study.

The one thing that really worked for me was doxycycline but it is too risky for me to take that on a long term basis because you might get hit with a super bug and then doxy doesn’t work. I felt the best I have felt in years when taking that doxy.
