I am in horrible pain, but was wondering if anyone experienced like tightness in your body with the nerve pain. It feels like things are gonna just snap n my legs or something. kinda hard to explain. any help is appreciated

Alothough my injury is far lower than yours, yes I can relate in certain respects! Before you go to your doc and get all juiced up on pain meds, try smoking a little herb first. I've found it helps ALOT when you body get's super tight! Bake into cookies or brownies though, it will produce more of a "body high" which helps the situation out far more than smoking it...I hope you feel better soon! smile.gif

I've found weight-bearing through my legs with assistance, stretching, and marijuana inhalation therapy (biggrin.gif) to help me in those regards.

Wow really baking it in browies is more effective? Wouldn't it require a good bit of weed to bake it?

so the weed just takes away the tightness or does it help with the neve pain too?/

for me it helps with both. the tightness I feel is best explained as a band of pressure..like there is a restricting snake wrapped around my mid-section. And then there is the burning sensation..the weed helps alot with that.

hope this helps
