My name is Kathy Vienna( I believe my on line tag is #kvienna)
I haven't been on in a while. Just checking to see if there is any new information on CRPS. I explained before that I developed it in my rt. foot in 2007 after a major back surgery.(My 5th back surgery since I had harrington rod placed in 1969. The pain has now spread to my knee. Terrible nerve pain, weakness, numbness, balance issues. (I am now using a walker) I started developing numbness in my left foot this past January after I had surgery to place a rod in my left femur after developing an atypical femoral fracture from taking Prolia for osteoporosis . My pain dr. is sending me to a "Naturalist Dr." who can help me decide what kind of medical marijuana I should try. I am taking so much medicine now that only "touches" the pain and for only a short time. I am hoping marijuana will due a better job.

Marijuana will help. Maybe not in the ways you are hoping. There are many types available. I find green weed, the kind you roll in a joint works great for many people and others do well with edibles. CBD Oil benefits many others need the CBD and THC Oil. I personally use concentrates called shatter. Here is how it works for me. I have a genetic wasting neuropathy and I find it relaxes me and allows my prescription meds do their job better. If you are considering adding Marijuana to your regime remember there are many ways to use it and it works different for each person so don't be afraid to keep trying until you find what works best for you.
