A very close friend is on jaw dropping amounts of morphine/codeine. He's maxed on benzos like xanax too. It still doesn't kill all the pain.
He sleeps a lot, but when he's up, he's completely alert, drives, and has never once experienced any kind of 'high'.
I took one of his vicodins once after a dentist visit and spent the next 4 hours smiling at the ceiling. Go figure.
Since the pain is partly muscle spasms, I think a little marijuana might go a long way in helping his pain and reducing his other meds - until they put him in jail for it.
