CRPS/RSD and Marijuana
    #19228117 - 12/04/13 06:33 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I was diagnosed with a rare, degenerative nerve damage condition earlier this year called CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), also known as RSD (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy).  It developed after a traumatic injury at work to my right ankle, and subsequent weakness and nerve pain, which just kept getting worse, and still is.  I am past all the meds, most of them were nasty and brought no relief, and I am in the procedure phase.  I don't know if any of you are familiar with this disorder or if you have it, but it's like torture.  My pain rarely dips below 8/10, and it is constant, with spasms on top of it.  The affected area has already started to spread up my leg and to other parts of my body.  The procedures only seem to cause more spreading.  It's a very confusing condition, a monster physically and mentally.  Here is a short summary if you are not familiar: National Institute of Health - CRPS/RSD Fact Sheet

I never could have imagined previously that the body could feel this much pain, nonstop.  I've been out of work for a while and everything in my life, from my hobbies to my health and my marriage, have been affected by this extremely painful condition.

Anyway, one of the ONLY remedies that brings some relief is the herb.  Unfortunately, legal problems make it difficult for me, because due to drug testing, I can't get pain medication regularly.  The only time I feel even remotely relieved where I can focus somewhat normally and not be constantly pulled by pain spikes is when both are in my system (low doses of opiates, not a big fan of them either).  This is getting so serious that I am considering moving to another state.

Does anyone else in this forum have CRPS?  Also, let me hear your input on an idea I have.  I am considering using my condition to help advocate for legalization in my state (NC).  Any leads or contacts for me on this front?

Thanks brothers and sisters  :heart:
