I am in perfect health except for severe back pain and now neuropathy. I am a young 72 and live alone. There's a new pain medication out called Journavx. It's non opioid and I'm going to ask my pain doctor about it Wednesday. Walgreens has it. Maybe there's hope for me yet.!

There is always hope Linda. Don’t get too excited as disappointment is destructive to mental health. It’s just another option to try 🤞

Having watched my son on a 10 year rollercoaster of excitement and disappointment, he has settled on an opioid pain patch that delivers micrograms consistently instead of milligrams sporadically.

Read everything you can about Journavx and if you still want to try it, start at the lowest dose.
I’m sure everyone will be interested in your experience with it.
(We are all unique and age, body weight and co-factors all add to the complexity.)
