chronic pain just kind of musing to myself on that famous exchange about what level of pain is normal (that being level zero) and how much I really should put up with on a daily basis

to begin with I basically have myself so well-trained to just ignore pain that I don't really even notice until it's normal-people level 8-9 (chronic pain level 5-6 according to this)

but the problem is that's also when it's so bad it's really hard to get it under control

I'm pretty much immune to any NSAIDs, every drug that's on-label for fibro that we've tried for it either make me really space-headed (e.g. gabapentin) or I have a genuine allergic reaction to (e.g. lyrica)

I can take Excedrin when it's this bad and get some effect, but the only thing that really works reliably is 5:1 CBD:THC products

but I have to take so much I get high along with getting pain relief
❝ D a t a ❞
so I kind of just...don't bother with anything unless it's gotten to be really bad

comments are open now, btw
❝ D a t a ❞
how much pain do you put up with? have you found anything that mitigates it becoming bad on a daily basis?
❝ D a t a ❞
bumping this because I'm still curious
