I had a herniated disc in my lower lumbar I believe it was #5. I was in pain constantly sometimes couldn't even get off the floor. This lasted for years, until one day I fell from the top of an 8' ladder landing on my ass on the concrete sidewalk. This happened about 3 years ago. To this day I have been pain free. Before this I was on pain pills, anti inflammatories, cortizone shots, chiropractors, physical therapy, nothing helped. I would not suggest this method of relieving your ailment, I just wanted to share that story. I would not opt for any type surgery either. MJ combined with the other scripts did help it not hurt as much. I feel your pain and hope you find the right meds.
gronnh20 Reviewed by gronnh20 on . any1 herniate any discs? I've got 2 herniated discs in my lower lumbar & one disc near the center of my back is totally disintegrated... I've gone without the steel rod operation as Ive never been cut open & dont wanna be. But does weed help alleviate the pain for you all? It seems to help at times even more then a hydrocodone script.
