What I'm hearing is that the government has tied the drs. hands so badly that no matter how much they want to help they aren't allowed to. And since they're on the front lines, it seems like they're the ones that don't want to help.

A few people on this site are organizing petitions etc... to get the government to stop punishing people that are suffering from chronic pain and not lumping them into the same category as people that are overdosing from street drugs.

Maybe someone that has more info about this can reach out to you to tell you how you can help make a change.

Hugs to you and I hope you have a manageable pain day.

Sad to say yes, I know of people that have gone that route. With the government cracking down on how the doctors are prescribing meds, its a natural choice. Drug addicts have made it hard for pain patients get pain relief in hospitals, and from your very own dr. I hope you don't have to go to that route, you never know what you are getting unless you happen to know the seller. I know some people will disagree with my post. But when you are in painand there is no relief in sight, you do what you have to do.

Valery, does Florida have the medical Cannibus available through your doctor? I’m finding that it is helping me get through the day with a controllable amount of pain.

Kimi, when pain becomes so bad we will almost do anything to try and make it go away or alleviate it, so don't be too hard on yourself. I have never done street drugs never will but believe me I have spent just as much on supplements claiming relief, programs claiming relief and all for nothing! So hang in there and like the rest of us just keep going...xoxoxoxoxo

I have tried kratom and it does boost energy but overall wasnt big on any pain reliefe, if anything i was overdoing it.
