Gosh I'd hoped it would've gotten better for you.


We have decided to go with edible mmj for my hubby. My gosh what a difference it has made.


So, so happy to hear that finally something really makes a difference!

Yes, finally. Thank you.

I'm curious as to how you are feeling? was the doctor able to help?



I'm Sorry I Forgot to update the thread. I'm doing better, haven't had an episode for a week now and I'm getting a MRI in February and hopefully a diagnosis.



Very glad to hear it! Hope the February appointment provides some useful information.


Thank you

Good luck! My thing about meds or edibles, is that for my personal level of nerve pain, they just mask symptoms and do nothing to kill the condition itself. So, basically they leave you walking around high all the time, which is cool, but not very functional for outside of the house stuff. Depending on where the nerve pain is, physical therapy can help, but I don't see that doing much for nerve pain in the dome (though I have had dr's tell me that high tension in the upper back could possibly contribute to nerve pain through the head. I've also had dr's shrug that suggestion off). So...ymmv, as they say. Anyway, good luck!

That's why I don't want to take this stuff. Honestly I'd rather just "sit it out" but that's not the best solution in the long run.

I had no luck with it, but some have had success knocking it out with a steroid shot. I tried muscle relaxers for a pinch...did nothing but make me loopy as a motherfucker.
