On January the 11th at 10 PM, coming home from a night class, I had a blowout which caused me to go into a ditch and hit a concrete culvert at highway speeds. The accident created a G-force in excess of 88g, thats 88 times the force of gravity. It shattered my left feumr, as well as some simple breaks on my left humerous, and an orbital fracture, three fractured vertibrae and some broken ribs. 
A few weeks and a few surgeries later i found myself in bed and on LOTS of pain meds. I know many people who have had lots of issues with pain meds and the amount I was taking wasnt helping anymore, I didnt want to get caught up in the addiction pain meds can bring so I chose not to up my doseage and to try kratom.
To my great suprise it helped my pain better than the percosets I was on and didn't share the side affects of the pills. No sleepiness, no constipation, and NO ADDICTION!
My blood pressure went down with kratom as well and I was able to get off my blood pressure medicine too (a known use for kratom is to lower you BP) , so kratom is in my medicine cabinet at all times! I had expected it not to do much like other herbs I've tried from GNC and the like but it was truly a miracle for me and Id reccomend it to anyone! Truly a great remedy!
