The actual pain in my neck and back is bearable. What drives me crazy is the tingling numbness in my left leg and the shooting "zaps" of electricity that go from shoulder to shoulder through out the day. That's what the doc prescribed this pill for. I've been handling the pain with anti inflammatory muscle relaxers and CBD cream. The CBD seems to be doing more for me than all the others.

I have no idea about any of this but what about CBD oil? I have a friend that had rotator cuff surgery and when she got off of meds took that CBD oil and said it worked pretty well for her. It wasn't the same as pain pills the way she explained it but helped her relax.

My wife has been taking it for a couple of years stemming from totaling her car on George Bush one day. Got some neck injuries from it. It takes a while to start working but it really works well with her as long as she keeps taking it. She was getting constant headaches and neck pain and not able to sleep but while she’s on it she’s fine.

Long story, but will try to shorten it. I had rotator cuff surgery 3 years ago, neck disc replacement last year. I still have herniated discs between 1 & 2 & 3. Dr. won't fix those so I'm looking at lifetime of pain. I'm allergic to codeine so i only take tramadol for pain. It was suggested that I look into "spectrum confections". The guy who founded jelly belly jelly beans is selling cbd oil infused jelly beans. Ive managed to cut tramadol from up to 8 pills a day to 1 or 2 a day along with 2-3 jelly beans. I buy them from "haystack4life". Its not cheap $20 for 10 beans @10mg each.
Your mileage may vary.

Pretty much not a moment goes by that part of my thoughts are occupied by neck pain. Only exception was the first couple of times I used CBD cream.

After seeing my MRI's the doctor was adamant about working on my back (he actually told me he was surprised that I could walk, and that I'm to never run or jog again.) he was so focused on my back that I had to practically fight him to work on my neck. My back I can deal with, but holy shit! neck pain is murder!!! When I turn my head It feels like sand in roller bearings, I can actually hear it in between my ears. And every now and then when I turn my head my neck will "catch" and there will be and audible click. My neck will kinda lock and I have to reverse the motion then slowly go around the position that caused the problem.

I dislocated my right shoulder a few times, starting at 16, and never got it looked at back then. Now, at 44 with osteoarthritis, it fucking aches constantly and sometimes really hurts. It clicks pops like crazy moving it, etc.. Had a bunch of imaging done and consulted with a Orthopedist, and he basically said they wouldn't recommend surgery in cases like mine, and there really isn't anything else that can be done. There are some bone spurs present, and he said if those get worse, they may be able to go in and clean them up some, but they weren't at that stage then (about 2 years ago).
I got the Louis CK line, basically saying that if I was an athlete or did very physical work the might consider, but since those don't apply, deal with it..

The pain could go from mild discomfort to severe from something as simple as holding my steering wheel in the wrong position for too long.
The original injury was over 10 years ago.
I’ve been looking at the CBDMD website trying to motivate myself to give it a try for over a week now.

CBD seems to work well for a lot of people with different issues, give it a try.
