I fractured two vertebra when I was 18 and for 20 years I've tried various remedies with very little success...from regular pain killers
and muscle relaxers, experimental research from UCLA(out of my own pocket), epidurals, pain block medication, etc etc. Nothing
worked very well, until I found out I had cancer and after the surgery I was given several pain killers including Perc*cet(the only pill
to rid me of back pain completely) Nothing helped the pain from the stent that was in me during recovery. I will say that after the stent
was out I had a few weeks of recovery time in which I was in no pain whatsoever, I didn't know I could be that happy....eventually
no more pills, but that was fine I didn't want to constantly take Perc*cet...so I went back to my grumpy ass self....
there are other injuries to my back, and discs that are jacked....but you get the idea.

Today I only take one prescription to help block pain because I must drive for work and I can't do that after taking MMJ.
However I stopped taking the pain killers and muscle relaxers...thanks to cannabis, and a book called Pain Free. It is
the best and safest way for me to control my pain.
