Being on the topic of pain, I have severe pain in my rotator cups on my shoulders. I’ve just adjusted to pain, when it’s extremely severe, I will take something to deal with the pain at night. The other half has rubbed some kind of CBD oil on my shoulders before and it has helped but I try not to make a habit of it.

The have CBD without the thc. The only way you’ll know is to try it. It’s affects everyone differently. I smoked weed almost every day, for about 10 years. Always enjoyed it. Once I decided to quit, before getting my CDL, only because of DOT drug testing. I’d go for days, and when I did smoke, the effects were awful. I went from a very high tolerance to being very sensitive to it. No desire for it since. Fun while it lasted. Same with alcohol. I enjoy having a clear mind for almost 39 years now. Took a while to get out of the fog. Everything affects everyone differently, sometimes at different stages of use. Brain chemistry can change at any time. Doctors still push the Opioids despite the reforms put in place. Once only used for terminal patients, the drug companies lobbied for controlled everyday use, using questionable research. They made Billions. Literally causing the current epidemic. I’ve seen so many people hooked on them. Including my own Mother and her friend’s. They’d trade, borrow, loan one another Oxy pills. They didn’t even know they were drug addicts. Others I’ve seen have resorted to using street heroin when their Doctor cut off their Oxy. Quite a few of my childhood friends died from heroin use. Opioids are so addictive. They use to tell me to never try it. They couldn’t quit. Glad I never tried it. They have their use for surgery, and hospice. The idea that they can be taken daily in controlled amounts is very controversial. Turns into a full time obsession of supply and availability. They’re always looking forward to their next pill. Best to avoid at all costs. Only as a last resort. I went to a pain management center once. It’s not pretty. Everyone looks like a Zombie. They had me on Vicadin for a couple months. Doing BS physical therapy. The pain in my leg was worse than I ever thought possible. I had surgery on my back, and luckily it was successful. Pain meds work by blocking signals to the brain. You have to take another pill before the last one wears off. Long term, your always sedated.

DO NOT go the route of opiods. Unless you exhaust every option first. I have know a good bit of friends have success with edibles. Plus zero side affects, no addiction risk and will put you in a good mood!....lol
Good luck and I hope you find what works for you!broke down plumber, Sirscrapntruckalot, Big Road Skateboard and 1 other person Thank this. -
Knew a straight laced guy when after accident and a bad surgery who got hook on then. He was as clean as a person comes. He did end up beating it, but took a few years.
Thats why even under a prescription that stuff scares me.broke down plumber, Big Road Skateboard and Rideandrepair Thank this.
