I want off the Tramadol and the shots help but for how long??? no one knows?? Along the way, I have developed what the doctors call "nerve pain" 24/7. Burning and aches in joints, legs, arms, etc. in addistion to lower back pain. Now the question?? Am I a candidate for medical marijuana use? How does it work in replacment of other pain meds.?? Right now I am totally functional...will medical marijuana change this???
Sorry for the "silly" questions....any help appreciated.
