Hello, most of us have pain, and take many different avenues for relief. I have in the past, called 911!!! The pain was very bad and i had neurological pain (very bad). I now have a morphine pump implant in my stomach and it stops me from screaming. I think this pump has worked for me in more ways than one. I hope i never use anything else. I have had success with the morphine pump and i do not want to chance being without it.

I get relief the minute, it should start...yes, you do have break thru pain with the pump...i do not want to experience, the pain again!! It works for me and gives me a chance to live a near normal life. So, i am happy with the treatment.

Respectfully, mickey

I take Celebrex twice daily and cymbalta nightly. I have had 25 knee operations as well as numerous others. I have problems with my SI joint as well. I take 1-2 Percocet every 6-8 hours. Plus I ice and heat constantly.

For the bone pain, ONLY oxycodone works. For spasticity of the muscles I have found dry needling to work the best

After a car crash a couple of years ago, my neck hurt so much that turning my head felt impossible some days. Painkillers helped only for a little while, and I needed something that lasted longer. That's when I thought about trying physiotherapy. I ended up going to the Ottawa Physical Rehab Clinic for help. Dr. Greg was my physio there, and it was like he knew just what I needed. He showed me special exercises meant just for my kind of neck pain and did some treatments that really helped. It didn't make the pain go away right away, but after a while, I started to feel a lot better. Dr. Greg also taught me ways to keep the pain down on my own, which has been great.

@HelloKitty I started taking kratom when I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia, it means I have constant pulling of my neck and shoulder muscles. Botox is the primary treatment , 6 to 8 shots targeting muscles but its hit and miss. I told a friend about this and he told me about kratom, so I went to a kratom shop and talked to the owner. He learned I was an Army Veteran and sold me some capsules. Unbelievable the kratom knocked out the pain and relieved some of the spasms and pulling that was 5 years ago, and I am still taking it for chronic pain. I have found the vendors to trust and a fbook website to share experiences with others. Like all things kratom must be handled with common sense, and reading info on the web helps educate us all. IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS WITH MY CHRONIC PAIN

@Somya.P My neurologist gave me a script through the state dispensary for aid with sleep. It helps with sleep. The script is for low dose THC, so it aids with minor pain. I have learned through my trials of product that CBD gummies help with sleep, but not pain. In my state, CBD gummies can be bought at local corner stores.
