Currently just some cannabis and nicotine for me, nothing wild.

      I’d be curious to hear how it works for sleep! I have tried CBD which never did much for me, but I am mildly intrigued my CBN/CBG.

    Due to chronic pain tramadol er and ir and Lyrica. I’m one of the lucky ones that can get high off tramadol. Also, for some reason I’ve never had an issue with tolerance, mine always seems to stay low with everything. I really do need it for pain but the high does help lift my mood! Every night I get baked. Also nicotine although I use low nicotine juice. I just like the taste lol

        Yeah because it’s half antidepressant and half opiate so people who take opiates regularly won’t feel tramadol and will shit talk it. But, for someone who is opiate naive like myself it works good. Although, it does require a certain enzyme like codeine to get the opiate effect.

        My pain mgt doc said that if this er and ir mix doesn’t work and help my pain (she was trying to bring down my overall pain level 24/7) then we are going to something stronger. It helps my pain for sure but just not enough for me to be able to do stuff. If I wasn’t taking it I wouldn’t be able to work and I work from home. I would be bed ridden. So tramadol really does work as a pain killer.

        So on July 10th I have my apt with her and I can already tell that it isn’t enough to get me to be able to do activities. It has brought down my overall pain level like when I wake up but my pain highs are still the same which I expected. So now I just gotta stick it out till the 10th to get on something stronger. Honestly all I want to be able to do is go on a small hike every once in a while and be able to hangout with friends. I don’t expect my pain to go away from anything but just wanna be able to do stuff.

        Ahahha thanks I thought it was quite appropriate

          Good to know, thanks for the info! Already learning stuff on the new drugs community haha.

          I hope your doc gives you something that will help with the pain highs. I haven’t dealt with it myself but I did watch my dad go through lots of chronic pain so I know how debilitating it can be. Seems like she’s on your side at least, and in it to help you :)

          Good luck!! Here’s to many nice hikes in the future.

            Yeah she’s dope. My original pain mgt clinic put me on buprenorphine and it made my knees and below to swell and even gave me pitting edema so then they put me on tramadol and when I told them it wasn’t enough they refused to go stronger. I found a different clinic and was worried that she was gonna see me as a drug seeker (I mean I was but for an absolutely perfect reason but also this place is a lot closer and I wanted to do physical therapy at my pain clinic for it to be more involved). I was just completely honest with her about my situation and she has been awesome with helping me. She didn’t accuse me of drug seeking at all and understood that I am desperate for being able to participate in life. Bless her lovely soul
