@maryv449 I get my Kratom at Happyhippherbals. com You try a slow/low strain, one described as to help discomfort. I forgot how they exactly describe it, but it is for when you dont feel well. Usually, too, anything called Maeng Da usually works for pain. Kratom is marvelous. The only thing that rids you of pain, without the high of marijuana. Good luck. Lori Renee
