Non-narcotic pain meds?

There are quite a few things that can be used in place of meds, do as that Native Americans done....do some research ahead of time though. There is also books available for your location that has a list of all the flowering, edible, medicinal plants native to your area and what they are used for, with colored pics to learn to identify them.

But here's one of my favorites that easy to identify...lol

Onions

I can testify to the onion's power. My husband had an abcessed tooth not to long ago, and I sliced a fresh onion and cut it to fit into his mouth and he held it between his teeth under the abcess and it drew out the infection even helping with the pain till we could get him to a dentist. It was gross...but amazing.

Besides Willow, you can also chew the bark on Black Walnut trees for a toothache...and if the bark is steeped in tea it can be used as a laxative.

you can take lots of ibuprofen, I'm pretty sure they had me on prescription strength ibuprofen when I got my bones broken all over. To be honest though, I have seen opium lettuce and wanted to try it because I am still in pretty bad pain every day. It's legal and wild, grows all over, and the French still make the resin and prescribe it as opium there but it has very few negative qualities and is non addictive. It can also sooth a cough. You have to smoke it though, you can't just eat the resin. Look up opium lettuce. In all reality pain like I went through (crushed thigh, crushed heel, broken knee, fractured sternum and all the ribs on the left side, arm and multiple bad lacerations) is going to be very hard to control even with an IV of morphine. They found it pretty hard to keep me comfortable till they upped my daily meds to a heavy version of percoset, that shit was almost hallucinatory and would make me twitch, but it staved off a lot of pain that otherwise would have kept me perfectly still and I'd have developed pneumonia. Pain is a suck it up thing or a JESUS GIVE ME A HIT WITH A BRICK thing. When I got there (I was not only broken, but battered, covered with glass sprinkles, burned from hot engine oil and cut deeply in like thirty places) the only thing I wanted was for them to knock me out and keep me under. I kept requesting that with each new face. "When do you put me under?" That might be a job for ether or chloroform. But then again, in a SHTF or off grid scenario I would have been probably dead. People don't usually survive injuries that bad so...I mean it's all relative. And yes you're speaking to an expert on coping with intense and horrible pain. I am willing to bet if I got shot right now I wouldn't let it bother me until later. Having your legs crushed and then feeling what they do after surgery is a goddam nightmare.
