Instead they give me narcotic pain medication which I constantly take and that I don't like how it makes me feel except that it's a slight release from pain.

When I smoke marijuana and take percocet 10mg I am pain free for 1-3 days. When I take just one or the other seperate it helps for only a short amount of time if at all.

I have spent thousands upon thousands in tests to find out what this is and they can't figure it out. My testicle and sides (kidney regions) constantly feel like they are being crushed and twisted. It's the most horrible feeling and I can't live with it.

I've had severe chronic pain for 5 years gradually getting worse and worse. They say its not a fatal condition and that I'll live. But it is still killing me by making my life hell.

The doctor I have seen during this time says she will not recommend cannibis.

Other doctors won't give me anything. Not even the percocet. So what do I do?!

i just shaved my head and went to the beach where i got a really bad burn on my scalp. My head is now slightly swollen. I used aloe gel on my head and iced it which has slightly reduced the swelling overnight . If it is sun poisoning the only symptom i have is the swelling. So should i just use ice and wait it out? or should i see a doctor? In the meantime are there any other remedies or products i can buy to reduce the swelling?

Are the insurance companies in your country really trying to cut the expenses, not caring if you die or not, and then get away with it??

Just recently, I started noticing that when I turn my head, it sounds like wind in a tunnel in my right ear. It happens real fast. It is so strange. Never happened to me before. Does anyone know what can be causing it. I don't think I got water in my ear or anything.

I am donating blood on Thursday for a major blood drive, I've donated blood before so 'm ok with it. The next day I am taking off on vacation in an 11 hour flight.
Should I worry about lowering my immune system, or any risks to my health over this?

Any professional opinions would be great, thank you!
