I feel for you and can relate. I have several herniated discs in my lumbar area with at least one ruptured disc. I can't find a position to be comfortable in even for sleep.

I have been prescribed tramadol, flexeril, soma, hydrocodone, darvocet, and several others. I walk with a cane, can't put on my own socks or shoes, and stepping off off a curb is painful. Feels like I have a sword shoved up my ass and everytime I move it goes in deeper, even a side to side movement is excrutiating.

Smoking weed is the one thing that helps with the pain and the depression that this has also set in as a result. It hardf to even get my wife to understand how painful this is and to understand that I am fucking hurting.

Surgery is looking more and more like the only solution and I am not happy about the VA cutting on me, these fuckers can't even get my appointments right.

The stronger strains are helpful, mostly indica based hybrids. I'm expanding my grow after this next harvest, adding some different strains in addition to the WW.

I wish you the best, hope you find your solution.
