Yes daytimer - it does work. I have bi-lateral carpal tunnel with tendonitis in hands, wrists, forearms, elbows, and shoulders. Basically - my arms and shoulders are toast - and tendonitis is very painful.

I manage my pain primarily with edibles - and adjust pain management with smoking or vaping.

Only ever so rarely do I take an Ibuprofen 800 to help with pain management - only when I have really exceeded my limitations for a day.

My caregiver here in Montana makes tinctures and candies, as well as baked goods when called for. They have a constant supply of butter ready for patients baking needs.

I am highly opposed to the pharmaceutical industry - and all the toxins and chemicals involved. When the symptoms of the pill are worse than the ailment - something is seriously wrong - IMHO.

Good luck with your pain management - hope you get to be released from the fog of the codones and potential addiction.

Best wishes to you my friend......
