You managed to get off Fentanyl? God bless you!
After getting over the withdrawal from the fentanyl, I tried going as long as I could stand it without taking a pain pill, but that did not work.
Oops, no, you didn't stay off:
Until I can find something to help curb the pain, I do not think I will be able to stop taking them.
I'm sorry for all this chronic pain - a lifetime of hard work in a fishing boat - our bones wear out. All the cartilege between the joints also wears out.
#CBG
I was just reading about Delta 8 and 9, after Eric @ericvancewalton wrote in a reply to @owasco's post on chickens, My Mom has had great luck with THC for sleep, anxiety and arthritis.
CBG, or cannabigerol, shows promise for pain relief by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system, potentially reducing pain signals without the psychoactive effects associated with THC.
Praying you find some pain relief!!
I'm so sorry to hear about your chronic pain @myjob! I'll share some of what I've learned researching for my Mom's arthritis and neuropathy. CBD oil and Delta 9 gummies work amazingly well for pain. The Delta 9 (5-10mg of the Indica strain) can be used at night before bed and the CBD oil or Delta 9 (5mg Sativa strain) during the day (Cycling Frog is one of my favorites).
I also was turned on to an amazing homeopathic remedy for my own rotator cuff injury— it's Young Living's Deep Relief. This stuff was a Godsend for me while my shoulders were healing.
Also, we learned researching for my Mom's conditions that it helps TREMENDOUSLY to get on an anti-inflammatory diet. Sugar is the biggest culprit and seed oils. Anything in the diet that causes inflammation makes chronic pain a whole lot worse.
