Hope you find some answers and good info here and hope you get some help for your pain. I suffer from lower back pain as well. Had a buldging disk in my lower left back and man I dunno how I'd get outa bed without my cannabis...even if it is usually about 1 o clock...haha. Anyways, welcome to the farm bro!
Welcome to the farm, bro'! Back pain (and all long-term pain sufferers!) sucks, and so do the "pain meds" with little pain relief and huge side effects. Cannabis is great for back issues, especially gettin' to sleep!! p
