@heisenberg34 hey friend, thanks for your words. It was a terrible accident, I qas trimming my pecak tree and a giant branch came right at me before falling (branches often do I have learned later), I lost my chain saw as the branch literally grabbed me by my belly and threw me up in the air. The branch also tipped me over to my left so I landed with all my weight on my left heel bone, which basically exploded from the impact. I had a bone splinter stick out more than an inch from the back of my heel and long story short: it has destroyed my life. I have 10 screws and 2 metal plates in the said calcaneus bone, I never thought I would walk again. I almost amputated it 4 years ago as I was out of my mind from the pain. It is a grueling experience to go through each day as my brain replays the crushing injury in a constant loop. So I am on 3 x 150 mg lyrica, 10 mg oxy x4, hydromorphone 4 mg x 2, 50 mg amitriptyline plus clonedine in the pump mixed with dilaudid. Then 1 1/2 year. ago I got the Abbott Eterna SCS implanted as my pain no longer was well controlled. I have to say that it sounds as if you likely would benefit from better and a tad stronger opioid in the mix. Tramadol won’t cut it when your pain is at your levels..just my opinion. I appreciate hearing your story, wishing you well and I hope you get better relief in the future

@heisenberg34 ..I too use thc/cbd for the pain and the inflamation. As in your case I also use thc gummies for sleep. I find them most helpful, I also use actual (mostly indica) flower which I highly recommend if you tolerate it and if you can get some sound bud. thc vaping is also effective, both flower and vapes kick in pretty much instantly which is helpful when used to control pain. Gummies as you know often take an hour or more before you feel the effects which can be a long wait when one is in a lot of pain. In any case I just wanted to say that I am glad you can enjoy thc/cbd because it truly is most effective for pain. It works great for my CRPS and for my PTSD.
