hey.. thanks for your response. ok so around 3-4mg seems to be where it does get to be difficult for you as well. Oh ya, economic reasons.... even with my insurance I was paying 160 a month and had a 600 deductible, then I switched to film and after deductible its around 40, but because I go to a clinic, I have a co pay and a co pay for therapist twice a month, I have been struggling to find grocery money half way through the month. I hate how they start everyone out on such a high dose. It's quite deceiving when I first started to taper 16 to 8 not much of a difference really, I thought wow this isn't going to be so bad. Oh ya gabapentin....my doctor gives me those, just had them increased to 600mg I wished they worked for me, but they don't seem to do much,unless I take double the amount then I get some relief. I am glad that they are helping you. The medical ganj is another money thing. It's ridiculous, here the dispensaries are completely sold out and not even accepting new patients yet, it may be another 6 months, however I was lucky enough to try a vape oil and OMG, I'm no stranger to it, and it was amazing, was 78 percent thc and I felt like a million bucks, could not believe how clean and wonderful it felt. So.... I am going to start saving now, I don't work anymore, did high stress corporate work for many years, training and travel and ruined my neck and had to get on disability, then my husband died in my arms from Agent Orange complications. So after the funeral I went to the sub clinic. Nothing like trying get through all that while worrying if I had enough pills to get through the funeral and all. Oh what a mess I got myself into. And have been digging myself out ever since. But at least I still have my home and my sanity..... barely.. so it's just me and my Boxer puppy Cooper and my husband's dog Louie . I do have a good family ...me my mom and my sister are all widows so we help each other out, and a couple good friends, so I do count my blessings. Wish I was back in Florida most days well November through March! So... I guess the oil is the way to go. 200 bucks for the doctor plus registration fees and the oil is expensive. But if a vial I think it's 1ml would last a month might be worth it. Congrats on your hard work as well. It feels good to know sometimes that your not alone. Although I do not want that to sound wrong cause I don't think I would not wish this on my worst enemy so to speak. Wishing you the best with your continued success! I am always around if you ever want to share any tips. So I broke down did my sliver and it kept me up all damn night... ugh!!!! Gotta get some more melatonin. So I remain uncomfortablly numb. haha.
Thanks again for your input advice and support.
Peace.
