Does medical marijuana work for chronic pain?

I tried cannabis first for my neuropahy. Edible dose of 10mg with some cbd. Was effective initially, but ceased to be after about 3 months. Thank God I discovered Kratom. No drug effects, just pain relief. No fan of opiods, but you cannot "just live with" severe neuropathy. Whatever helps people, that's what people need. So called first line treatments such as Cymbalta or Gabapentin, etc, seemed alnost useless to me due to horrendous side effects. No physician will ever get it, unless they have it themselves.

Ironically, Kratom was discussed on the Mayo Clinic site. It is NOT a safe choice for pain control, and can be dangerous to to your health. I know, having chronic pain myself, that it is difficult to find relief and sometimes I just have to 'suck it up' and keep going.
