The dishes are piling up. My apartment is a mess. I can't stand long enough to make a decent meal. My tasks are falling way behind at work. The physical therapy exercises just stopped helping one day. Ibuprofen makes my stomach cramp, pretty sure I have a hernia, or at least it's warning me it's close. Weed doesn't dull the pain anymore. I miss my good days.

You've probably had lots of advice, but here is the combo that keeps me alive:

500mg CBD/CBG, oral (no, or very little THC!)

Avoid all bread and grains and beans/peas

Avoid all tomatoes and tomato products

Avoid citrus

Avoid all alchohol

Walk every day, even when it hurts

Gentle yoga even if it hurts (doyogawithme.com)

Do this for 3 weeks, stick to it, it's worth trying
