@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

Yes I agree. Im on morphine and Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen and yours as well. I have some others also. If I want to work in the back yard, I am sleep mode if I set down. The next morning and at night is paying with great pain. Its a hard road in many ways. We have to keep going best as we can. Have a smile and good day to you. I have the stimulator too.

Ambassador@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.

Hello everyone, how are you doing?
A new study has found that spinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapies could be a game-changer for those living with chronic back or leg pain. These therapies use electrical pulses to modify pain signals in the spinal cord, reducing the intensity of the pain. Compared to conventional medical management, which includes pain medications and physical therapy, both traditional and newer SCS therapies were found to be more effective. The newer types, like high-frequency and burst stimulation, showed the greatest improvements in reducing pain, increasing mobility, and enhancing quality of life.
If chronic back or leg pain is part of your journey, have you explored spinal cord stimulation therapies as an option? What’s your experience with managing pain through other methods, and would you consider trying advanced treatments like these?
