Hi, My name is Rich Carlson. I have Peripheral Neuropathy with about a 10+ year history. I currently take Lyrica 300 mg qid, Cymbalta 30 mg daily, OTC Tylenol and Advil qid. My primary physician has referred me to a Medical Marijuana center. Has anyone here ever tried this? If so, did it help. My pain has incapacitated me to point where I would try most anything that works to relieve my pain.

I was hospitalized because of side effects from Lyrica, and now I take 90mg<br>of Cymbalta, Percocet prn, muscle relaxer prn, and was up to 90mg of<br>morphine sulfate contin, but I'm trying to taper off the morphine. No other<br>med did anything for peripheral neuropathy. I've also been wondering about<br>Marijuana.<br><br>
