Background Info: I've been following the McDougall diet strictly for over 4 years. Mid Dec 2020, I suffered an injury which was diagnosed as foraminal spinosum which has to do with the nerve/ spine issues affecting my left leg. The pain is brutal and I would not wish this on anyone.
Anyhow, the doctor has me taking hydomorphone and naproxen which allows some comfort for pain. I'm trying to wean myself off these due to the serious side effects these medications cause. (By the way, I hate taking any medications!!!)
My prognosis is long term and I need some pain relief for sleep because I'm not getting much. (I suffer during the day by only taking the meds at night)
So the million dollar question is: Anybody know of any "natural alternative pain relief substances" which they recommend with little to no side effects?
Thanks for taking the time to read and respond! God Bless.
