Dear Editor:
I am a chronic severe pain sufferer. I have fibromyalgia, degenerative disk disease and osteoarthritis. I suffer from debilitating pain daily that makes me unable to function and perform routine tasks without the use of narcotic medication.
As a result of kratom I am no longer using narcotic medication.
Until 18 months ago I was on oxycodone to maintain reasonable pain relief. Then I discovered kratom. My pain level is now down to about a 3 on a pain scale of 1-10. Before kratom I lived at a level of about 8. This is significant improvement. As a result of kratom I am no longer using narcotic medication. I now am able to walk without having to use a cane for assistance and can powerwalk. I can now do many things I could not do before.
Kratom has changed my life and has allowed me to be a productive member of society. I urge you to make this botanical legal in Wisconsin.
