Kratom does not slow down the central nervous system like Opiates do. Kratom has made it possible for me to get off prescription pain pills and get my life back.
I have CRPS and am in pain 24x7 with no cure for this devastating condition that the US government says is the 47th most painful disease on earth.
There were so many ill-effects from constipation to enormous mood swings on Hydrocodone that just does not happen with Kratom.
