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.

  11. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  12. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  13. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  14. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  16. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
  17. Alkazar @ Alkazar: It is INSANE how doctors treat tax paying hard working people like criminals when they ask for opioids. This world just keeps getting more and more backwards. But thanks to this site to be able to find people to help when no one in the medical world will.
