Chronic back problems constant pain tried CBD for

First time it helps. I've been going to a chiropractor for electronic acupuncture and got medication from a pain doctor for anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxer. Slowly getting worse pain shoots through legs when walking try this for the first time and it's working better than the chiropractor or the pain medication... call I'm getting my first shot ever in my back of cortisone on Wednesday but I had to try something the pain was too much

I absolutely feel for people who have chronic back issues because I remember how miserable I was when I had just a temporary back issue for a few weeks, it just wore me down.

I tried CBD oil, gummies and chocolate with 10 grams per square. Didn't help at all. The gummies and chocolate gave me a real good buzz but didn't touch the pain.

I also have scoliosis which is probably contributes to the pain. The cortisone shots are the only things that truly help me and the relief is almost immediate. I hope that they work for you. Stay strong.

My last surgery (#4) helped a lot. I’m usually pain free these days. But I went to my sons game today and sat in the bleachers. That’s the worst pain I’ve had in quite awhile.
