Well...since the genie is out of the bottle anyway...I used to partake in my younger days and have not tried it for pain since all the problems began . I have been on a course of extended release morphine for 5 years for ARD (adhesion related disorders). I have to tell you it isn't touching the muscle pain and the deep pain in my bones.I could increase the morphine because I keep myself on 30 mgs a day which is a farely low dose,but I hate the lovely side effects , meaning constipation.
What got my attention at the start of this thread was the pain location.I too have felt pain in my er..umm...tootie

. Pins and needles right up the leg to my business. Is the "alternative" medication helpful for this?? I wonder if it is legal in my state for medical use?
