I just looked up kratom. Don't know why you used it, but it doesn't have a very good review from Mayo. https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/consumer-health/in-depth/kratom/art-20402171
It would have been wonderful if it were safe -- I am looking for pain relief myself. I have been off drugs, legal and illegal for many years. I take prescription medication (I'm figuring kratom is not) when I figure it's necessary, not necessarily when the doctor wants to prescribe. Not saying this is right, but that's how I am now after having suffered at the hands of doctors. I'll go to doctors when I deem it necessary. I'll do what they say if I want to. But I'm glad I looked it up, so I'll be careful.

I have looked at using Kratom as well. I have found most of the conventional methods are not working. I can't even begin to tell you how many drugs that I've been on over the years. Now have post Covid issues and I'm feeling unheard in my pain issues. Ever since the opiate crisis, pain patients are left in the cold. I wonder if in there statistics, they have actual pain patients that have committed suicide. Contact me and let me know where you buy from and how well it has worked for pain.
