I took Gabapentin for 9 years and the pain just kept getting worse. My pain doctor tried me on 5 different pain medications all of which I had a reaction to. I react differently to many medicines. They make me quit breathing. My pain doctor said he would recommend me to read up on using Medical
gummies for pain. He told me he could not prescribe it but I could go on line and get a doctor too. I had to really research it before I would try. Finally I got my FaceTime with the doctor and he sent my paper work to Mo Senior Services and it was approved. It is something that insurance won’t cover. I got my card last July. Started using it the day after. I knew I wanted to start as low as possible so cut each gummy circle in fourths, I saw some improvement within an hour but still a lot of pain changed to a half every six hours. It took all the pain away. My doctor then recommended I go to water physical therapy. I could do it in deep water with a life belt on. I have completed 5 weeks of that and enrolled in aquasize. I some times have to change my movements a little due to the bar in my back, but it has been the best thing ever. I can shop for groceries again without pain and go places with my husband. I feel like by me being willing to change my belief and make sure I take a half every 6 hours I have been set free. Fortunately recreational is now been voted in. Renewing your medical card is so much harder than getting it and everytime they deny you it is another charge. They denied me second time said picture on my license wasn’t clear enough and it is the same drivers license they accepted a year ago. I don’t get any type of high because the amount I take is small. Thankful I found a way to live life again..
