Neuropathic Pain

TLDR; seasonal allergies and nerve pain in feet - specific products that have helped you?

I have progressive neuropathy (most likely related to elevated blood sugar but my diagnosis is “idiopathic”, or unknown cause).

Anyway, I have a lot of seasonal type allergies and have found that some weed makes me uncomfortably itchy and my neuropathy flare up for a while, then calm down after a bit. I have started taking allergy medicine, finally, so perhaps that will help a bit.

I also take nerve pain medicine and pain medicine for chronic low back pain. I do find if I take the nerve pain medicine before they the spike in pain after smoking isn’t quite as pronounced, as would be expected.

I have had some great experiences with weed in the past (especially before the neuropathy), and have tried different products, such as: THC vapes, regular flower (but not much other than this past month and long in the past).

I’ve tried searching for this issue and found only a small amount of relatable advice. Is anyone who’s reading this have a similar situation other they’ve gotten some THC relief from? I’d really appreciate any advice. If your advice is to not keep attempting to use weed, that would be helpful to know as well.

Thanks for reading.

Question to Help my Dad

My Dad bought a used 2020 Forester premium and is having some issues with the rigid ride. He has a bad back, shoulders, hip, etc, and feels pain everytime he goes over bumpy roads.

Does anyone have any tips to smooth the ride out? We had heard better tires may help, but I’m not sure if that would make a meaningful difference. Even scaling down the stiffness a little bit to make the ride smoother would be nice.

Thanks!

My father was involved in an accident that was 100% not his fault. We have the police report, photos, repair records involving the frame of the vehicle close to $9k…

Anyway, as I understand, we need a third party appraiser to assess the diminished market value of the vehicle. Has anyone gone through this process in Evansville and have any recommendations about the process or an appraiser to use, I’d greatly appreciate it.

He just bought the used 2020 Forester Premium with about 50k miles 1 month before the accident from a dealership, so I would think the market value before the accident wouldn’t be too tough to estimate.

Thanks!
