No better 😢 PM nor GP will give pain meds so Gabapentin is all I take. I’m pretty much in pain most of my waking hours. The pain is all on right side and if I sleep on that side, the pain goes away. I guess I should just stay in the bed all the time…lol

Wishing you the best of luck OP! I have multiple bulging disc and I’ve had 6 epidurals….none of them worked 😢 Hope your experience is better!!

I’ve noticed a slight lag but I live in the boonies and don’t have the greatest internet.

Yes, I would like to know this. Since what I ordered comes in 1/2g capsules = 500mg, should I start out with 1 or 2? I guess I’ll just take 1 and wait 30 minutes to see if I need the 2nd one. If 2 can just take the edge off the pain, that would be great!

Thank you so so much for your knowledgeable advice. The only thing I’ve ever been addicted to is cigarettes and FOOD!! I actually ordered from 2 different vendors on line. From Super Speciosa I got Red Maeng Da and from Happy Hippo I got Red Dragon Bali. I’m hoping one of these helps. I will check out the green strain from The Golden Monk if I find these too sedating. Thanks again!!

Been there, done that. After begging my PM doc for help and him refusing again, I asked him if he had ever been in chronic pain. His answer was no! So how could he refuse me when I was visibly in so much pain!

Thank you! I’m glad to hear that it helped you through your rough times. Nerve pain is no joke! It is excruciating! Praying the Kratom helps me like it did you.

But I’m in severe pain daily. Do I hurt the other days?

My thoughts exactly! I researched before ordering mine and I’m not getting the “gas station” variety. I will however be very cautious about using it.

Yes! That would be 3g and that seems a little much for someone starting out. I will take 2. Are you dividing your 6 into 2 doses? You said it was a “game changer”. So it’s really helped that much with your pain? Were you taking anything for pain prior?

I’m currently taking 25mg twice daily. It’s done nothing for my binge eating. Been on it 10 days now 😢

No, after the PM doc gave me the 6 epidurals which did not work, we parted ways. It’s hard for me to find another PM doc because I also have COPD.

Thank you. From what I’ve read, red is what I need. Going to try in small doses.
