Hi, I’m Frank. (25) I suffer from severe neck/spine pain from my many slipped discs and have a messed up vertebrae in my spine that kills me. Everyday it switches from either right, middle or left. The rights the worse. I also get severe leg pain from my foot to my neck on the right. It hurts to write a lot and I can’t use my right arm and I’m a righty. Also have tmj and my life got 90% restrictions because mommy of all this . I sit home and cry all day in my room from pain, and because I can’t do anything anymore. My parents get me medical marijuana , but it only mutes it slightly since it’s so bad and I have to get it every 4-5 days because it’s so bad. I hope someone can help me, but I’m not begging or looking for sympathy. I go to physical therapy, and now a surgeon, but am afraid. Thx again 🙏🏻

      It's not easy, I know . I felt that way. Please dont give up. I want to go outside, walking helped me alot. It became part of my healing. You are still young. See 3_4 doctors, take their opinion. Hope you feel better.

        @Frank_D Living in chronic debilitating pain sucks the life out of everything. So sorry y’all are going thru it too and hope y’all find relief🙏🏻 found what is helpful for chronic pain is magnesium malate which helps with the fatigue and for headaches is magnesium threonate which is the only form of magnesium that crosses the blood brain barrier. 7 different forms of magnesium but these 2 specifically help the most but are the hardest to find.

          @KitKat1450 thx for the recommendation. I’ll definitely look into getting that

      Was recommended by a friend, but am so afraid as it hurts to even touch. I’ll consider though. Thank you so much for responding!

      Also, I have lived with chronic back pain on and off the past 10 years and it is the worst. I also suffer from tmj which causes me migraines daily.
