By "Toradol" do you mean "Tramadol"? Also, I've always been very sensitive to THC and while I still partake from time to time, it's usually in very small amounts, as it gives me a bit of anxiety. Hope you find something that actually works for your back pain. |
Toradol is ketorolac tromethamine, an NSAID, not an opiate like morphine.
I'm glad you found that post, reminds me how much better it's going now. With long therapy and (still) using an inversion table (bought one) 3 times a day it has become very manageable. I still take Ibuprofen a couple times a week when my leg and foot start hurting too much (from the pinched or damaged nerve in my back)
THC in small doses helps as well. That's also an anti-inflamatory, helps to sleep and 'disguises' the pain when trying to sleep. It's usually fine now during the day but definitely not fully cured yet. In the late afternoon, evening it starts flaring up a bit.
From being able to reach my toes, to hardly being able to reach my knees, I can now finally reach just past my knees again. Putting on socks and shoes is still a struggle. I'm definitely still a far way from lifting any heavy weights again.
Luckily the first time I went out cycling went fine. Now the weather is warming up that should start helping. It's still over a month until pool season starts, swimming should help as well.
Gaming on THC is a bit of a mixed bag. I usually lose interest and start watching Netflix or whatever is on tv. Elite Dangerous is really good on THC though :) It makes it as immersive as VR.
