Hey bluelight peeps, looooong time reader first time poster here…
I was injured during training while on active duty about 18 years ago. Had a spinal fusion in 2006, it was supposed to be a 1 time surgery. It ended up being a 2 part surgery and took me 2 years to learn how to walk again. I fall into this group where they call it a failed back syndrome or some shit like that.
I was in a pain management clinic and had always disposed of pain medication that didn’t work or would have been considered “extra”
I was told to bring in a medication that was not working (dilaudid) and they would put me back on my oxy script. They told me this after a spinal injection which I had needed 2 valiums to go through with. I completely forgot, had disposed of the meds and the pain management clinic discharged me. This was almost a year ago. out of desperation for pain relief I have tried weed and began getting oxy from someone else. Currently take about 5-6 15mg oxys a day but can’t keep up with that. Just got my hands on buprenorphine patches 150 mcg - it’s a film that I am supposed to put in my cheek.
I’ve also tried kratom - this helps with mood but I am not really looking for help with my mood. I am bitchy because I hurt. all…the…time, unless I have oxy.
my question- is this bup any good to help with pain? a boost in mood isn’t something I would turn down, lol, but it’s not my main goal.
help.
sorry if this is a little all over the place- tried to go for brevity
