84. I feel for you - last yr I fell on my back

Tue Oct 21, 2025, 10:25 PM

Tuesday

I was in bad pain for 3 months. Friend brought me some Advil 800 ‘s - they made a huge difference

My friend with MS uses a combo of cannabis & Valium for nerve pain plus LDN (low dose naltrexone). Lots of those with chronic pain trying LDN. Lots of LDN forums on web at Facebook , Reddit etc. An average dose of naltrexone is 50 mg but compounding pharmacies make 1.5 to 4.5 - tiny doses. This tiny dose can increase endorphins & cut inflammation.

On Amazon, you can buy ice pack clothing for your back.
