Same thing happened to me...worked great the first time, but then it never helped again...nasal ketamine and medical marijuana help me more than anything else
Has anyone had reverse shoulder replacement surgery?
I had rotator cuff surgery on both shoulders (2yrs apart) many years ago. Now doctors are telling me the surgeries have failed and I need shoulder replacement surgery on both. I just finished… read more
Lately it seems as though there are several people weaning off medications by their own personal choice. I'm not referring to those of you that are being forced to get off of meds. I'd be interested in hearing your results; comments. If you have been force to get off of narcotics and had good results, please share. Jean
@A MyChronicPainTeam Member neurontin helps but for some it doesn't work by itself I'm on 3600 mg a day and still need my pain meds. Which I too have been abruptly taken off of because of fear of… read more
I am looking into using CBD oil or marijuana. I am not a regular pot user. I tried some cookies laced with it and it started my heart racing and felt fidgety, which I don't want. Is there something I can use for pain and mild anxiety when needed? They just recently started opening dispensaries here. Trying to find relief without adding other issues. Thanks.
Hello peaceandlove, CBD oil works great plus you have better control on its use. A few drops can be some relief. Feel better, lori k
Is anyone staying abreast of this whole #opioidscrisis #opioidepidemic #dea #Kolondny going on?
And, are you concerned about losing your medications or have you already lost them?

My husband told me that Pres. Trump said he’d like to do away with half of all pain meds use! I’ve been on pain meds off and on from 21 to mid 30’s since I had received approx. 20+ surgeries in that time. Then 20 years ago ruptured L-4 and L-5, L-5 S-1. Pain was unbearable . I’ve been on them straight since then , Oct 21st at 1:10 pm ,1997. You don’t forget the date that changed your life. I’ve been treated like a drug seeker all my life on meds. Once and awhile you’ll find a dr who knows pain… read more
Hey Kiddo, Believe half of what you HEAR and all of what you SEE!! If Trump wants to be president--he knows--the drugs are for street use. That is what he wants to stop. We have to believe in… read more
I have had chronic pain for 10 years and I am currently at the end of my tether. Tried lots of different medications and other things to help but never free of pain which is beginning to impact on my mood.
I know how you feel I go through it everyday
I have AR and nerves in spine, one pinched in upper back makes hands numb which I also have AR in them. I also have bone spurs. My Dr, refuses to give pain meds. Shots in back did nothing. If you had this done please tell me if I should or not have it done. I have used every rub out. Does not help. Even hemp oil. Drugs have destroyed help for those who need them. Dr, said not allowed to. Does anyone know of anything that helps? God Bless.
I had nerve endings burned several years ago over a period of weeks. I'm sorry to say that for me it was not any kind of solution. As I said this has been over 12 years ago. The next doctor I was… read more
@A MyChronicPainTeam Member oh my goodness-the poor thing! I'm glad that she has had success with ketamine. I have heard amazing stories about it!
