I notice most kratom use is among op8 users either for wd, maintence or enhancement of subs. I have even heard some say if you aren't in this group you shouldn't try it.

I have chronic pain that i treat with celebrex, exercise and lots of THC.  I am choosing not to use op8s even though my dr. has offered them. I know myself and tendency for abuse. My pain is osteo in facets, bulging disc and a bad shoulder from 4 decades of sports and fun.

I am wondering if using kratom on my bad pain days would be something that could help but be less problematic than op8s?

How well does it work for pain?

How high is the addiction potential?

Any side effects to note?

Especially interested in hearing from people who didn't start krat for op8 wd if any do exist, did you find it habit forming and regret trying it?

 
I honestly dd not find much in the way of pain relief from Kratom.  Depending on the strain you either get a stimulant type feeling or relaxation with a hint of euphoria thrown in.  I did not experience much in the way of side effects except for the time I took too much and was basically high and little higher than I preferred.  I personally found the addiction potential there but it was not strong enough to concern me.  I would call it more of a dependence type issue rather than an addiction type of issue.  It really comes down to strain, quality and dosage.   I am not sure with the amount of ailments you suffer from that kratom would be strong enough to get you where you want to be physically.   Its got great properties that do provide relief in some areas but with the type of relief you are seeking, you are going to have to try a bunch of different strains to get what you want.   Side effects, like I mentioned earlier usually happen when you take too much. You usually end up puking and having a terrible headache.  Its nearly impossible to od on it and it can be helpful, but your issues sound like something kratom would not be strong enough to help with.  If you want to use it,  find a good vendor, and sample a bunch of stuff until you find one that works for you.   Good Luck!!

 
As for me I was in pain management for about 8 years. Kratom is better than rockease or perc for me. You just have to try I around and find the right strain for you. Greens are dried half red and half white so that may be a good start. Also get maybe an extract for says when pain is unbearable. Like gold45 from Carolinakratom.com. I promise it’s the best Kratom I’ve ever had and I’ve been using Kratom for just over 5 years and no opiates except for surgery or hospital stays. 

 
To answer your questions to my best ability:

How well does it work for pain? moderate pain relief  way better than vics and Perc 5

How high is the addiction potential?  if you take it every day its  definitely addictive  but the withdrawals are nothing close to op8 withdrawals  Mainly I get cold and hot sweats and fatigue and achy.  Also my mental state is craving for about 3-4 days  

Any side effects to note?  Constipation but can be stopped by taking magnesium at bedtime   
magnesium also keeps tolerance low for longer 

Do not take if you have a history of seizures 

 
I use kratom daily, but not for pain. I do have pain occasionally though and it helps a little, but it's not dramatic. It's mostly a stimulant and mood boosting effect and not so good as a painkiller, but it does help a little, so I think it's worth a try given how cheap it is.

canopybotanicals is where it's at. I have tried many suppliers and this is simply the best one hands down. Their prices are the best you can find and the kratom is just as good as the other suppliers that offer lower quantities at a large markup. I never order from anyone else at this point. Try their Wild Green, Maeng Da, and Super Green Jongkong. Those are the top three for painkilling. I tried ALL of them. A lot of people say it varies on batch, but their full of shit. These have been consistently the most potent kratom I've had. The #1 most potent is actually the crushed leaf Maeng Da, but you need to make a Tea from it, so it's not as convenient for some people.

  2. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  3. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  4. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  8. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  9. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  10. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  11. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  12. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  13. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  14. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  15. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  16. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  17. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  18. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  19. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  20. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
