ttm - Welcome to SR, though I'm sorry for your pain.
I have to agree with Dee, though I do so with caution. Only because my stepmother had chronic pain from many things, found a doctor who gave her what she wanted, and I found her dead last month.
I've been through a ruptured disc in the back, sciatica and other physical problems. Dee has been through many more pain issues.
It's quite easy to want to just numb the pain. It's also quite easy to get addicted. I recommend seeing a doctor who is familiar with pain management AND addiction.
Weed isn't making your pain go away, it's just making you forget about it for a while. As time goes on, it will take more and more. It's a vicious circle, one I don't want anyone else to go through.
Hugs and prayers,
Amy
