Earlier this year we found out Mr 222’s got herniated discs in every single lumbar joint, as well as a quarter sized disc fragment floating around in his spinal column that needs to be surgically removed. As you can imagine this is causing a great deal of lower back pain.
This is the result of a horrific car accident that we were involved in 2.5 years ago. We are still fighting for justice in a lawsuit with no end in sight. Anyway, I can’t really say more than that and that’s a story for another day…
While we consult with different surgeons and explore all options available to us, I’m making him a custom tincture to alleviate joint pain, reduce inflammation, and help manage his unrelenting lower back pain.
The tincture I’m crafting for him has several ingredients but I needed to make the Devil’s Claw extract since I didn’t have any on hand and couldn’t find it online. It is highly regarded for treating osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout due to its high concentration of iridoid glycosides, particularly harpagoside, which help manage pain and improve mobility. When it’s ready to strain in a few weeks I’ll add the other ingredients and he can begin taking his custom pain relief tincture.
I’d love to put a tincture together for you too if you’re in need of herbal remedies that are stronger than teas. Comment or send me a DM if you’re interested 🤍
Anybody out there have a recommendation for a back surgeon in central/south Texas? We are willing to travel if we need to. 🙏
