Pain

What does your doctor do for you when you you are in pain besides giving you meds? I've been to my doctor over and over for pain and all she says can be done is try this New med I've had side affects to so many meds that i don't want to be a guinea pig anymore. I need something that actually is going to help any suggestions? it's come to the point where I'm suffering everyday.

My husband was and never has been into taking anything but ibprophen for pain. It got so bad for him after his rectal prolapse surgery that he finally broke down and bought thc. Finally 2 puffs on a pipe and the pain was all gone. He only smokes it when he isn't going anywhere ,driving especially! So, as I've said so many times before, thc, cbd's, medicine etc, we're all individuals and what works for one may not work for others. We can't judge others and call it just an excuse for taking marijuana for pain because if it works, that's awesome! No judgements here! I hope we can all find help for our pain! @A MyFibroTeam Member

Have you considered Medicinal Cannibis ?. After over 20 years of having Fibro and living almost 49 yesrs with Chrones Disease, medical cannabis has been a life saver for Physical and Mental Pain

I started the CBD oil after our last conversation, and at the moment I am only taking pure CBD oil with a hint of THC. It really does work, and it helps to take the edge off the pain. It has helped with sleep, my pain, moods, only problem is that I have such a high tolerance, and the dose/amount I would need to take regularly does not fit into my budget. So I just take it when I need to take the edge off. When I am finished school and working again, the price will be more manageable.

I use medixal marijuana and its by far been the best pain reliever. You coule start with CBD by itself.

I'm sensitive to a lot of medications. They sleep is very important so I talked to my PCP to

get his thoughts on medicinal marijuana. So I got my medical I.D. and vape every night.

Some flowers focus on certain symptoms. Good Luck !!
