Is There Any Medication That Can Be Substitued With Medical Marijuana For Chronic Pain?

I suffer from chronic pain to the point I can t do anything physical.It is in my back and whole body I only sleep afew hours at night sometimes the pain is so bad I can go to sleep at 10:00pm but not fall a sleep until noon. medical marijuana is the best thing I ve found for my problem. wondering if there is any pills with similar effects without having to use medical marijuana. Only milds the pain a little but helps a lot with sleeping. I can t take sleeping pills they make me sleep walk.

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be due to the fibromyalgia, or some other neurological disorder.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods, for few days and observe the pains.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically. And some N.S.A.I.D at night for some days.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. thank you.
