DMT and pain management?

[manifest_jynx]

Does anyone else have experience with smoking DMT while dealing with some sort of physical pain? If so how did it affect it and what dosage?
I've been having pain in my ribcage recently and I believe I over exerted myself exercising, my doctor thinks it's costochondritis. It's been 2 weeks since I've been able to smoke DMT due to being on certain muscle relaxers and after not taking them for a few days because they don't help my pain I decided to try doing a small dose of DMT this morning to help my mental state.
I smoked 15mg total, 5mg first and then 10mg after. Immediately noticed I was able to take deep full breaths again and immediately felt no pain and a warmth take over my chest. Honestly feel like in lower doses it could be somewhat beneficial for pain management.
Really been feeling the call to breakthrough but not confident enough with the pain I'm in.
Anyone else have experiences with psychedelics and pain management?

Well I have vaporized Dmt when in pain on several occasions and have had mixed results, usually when I have low back pain it seems to help sometimes with relaxation of the muscles, what is interesting is how during the trip I can feel a glowing light in the body, exactly in the spot of the pain.
Other times it doesn’t do much or the pain distracts from the experience, especially if it’s stinging pain after surgery or something like that, an broken ankle was also not something I would recommend. Anyway it doesn’t seem to make things worse so there’s that.

I would say just try and see.

Hi,
I usually take vaped low doses of spice to help with my neck pain and stiffness and back aches.
It has proved useful in cleaning the lungs too, and in breathing better.
It's as if you can direct it to where you have to work, through attention.

My gf suffers with trigeminal Neurolgia. She experiences excruciating facial nerve pain flare ups that last from minutes to hours. I remember her taking a couple big hits off the pen mid flare up, told me the flare up went from extreme pain to non existent.

What’s weird is that four months after that experience she didn’t have any flare ups. Basically a four months after remission from pain. What’s weirder than that is that the pain never returned to that side of her face, in fact when it came back, it came back on the other side of her face. For her condition, that’s not supposed to happen.

Her flare ups lately have been pretty bad. Doctors have her on all these opioids that don’t even work and she’s been feeling pretty miserable. I ended up getting another vape pen for her to try but sadly it doesn’t seem to do the level of healing it offered the first time she tried it. However, unlike the morphine and all the other opioids & pain meds she’s on. Hitting the pen gives her about 2ish hours of zero pain before it slowly starts to creep back in. I’m very curious too about the possible therapeutic benefits this substance offers for pain management.

Hi there, and welcome. I saw your other thread on this topic too. That sounds like a difficult situation, and the pointless prescription of opioids seems to make it all the more frustrating, since they're specifically pnown to be ineffective for this condition.

Here's a suggestion, though - rather than relying on tracking down 'carts' and vape pens of dubious providence, you'd do well to dig into all the resources we have here which will serve to guide you in the ways of extracting your own DMT and using it to produce a consistent vape juice suited to your own and your girlfriend's needs.

Other things to consider with respect to nerve function might include ensuring a suitably well-balanced intake of B vitamins, and to look into whether something like Lion's Mane mushroom might help with the neuropathic side of the condition, particularly if you were to use it alongside the dietary supplementation and psychedelics.

Harmala alkaloids (as found in ayahuasca/ caapi vine and syrian rue) may also have a role to play in managing this condition. There's a report by @_Trip_ on use of changa (a smoking blend containing DMT + harmalas) for the symptomatic relief of MS, another condition related to nerve demyelination. Of course, I'm not in a position to know whether your GF's condition actually relates to demyelination, nor can I give medical advice. Such things are the realms of licensed physicians - just not the ones, it would seem, who are inappropriately prescribing opioids.

Nevertheless, I hope this helps.

Thank you, I look into these things!
