Suggest Treatment For Medullary Sponge Kidney Disease

Medullary Sponge Kidney disease patient. Daily pain, moderate level. One year ago I put myself through opiate withdrawal in my hospital, voluntary, believing I was doing the right thing. Pressure from Health plan, State, and media. Took T3 only as needed for 15 years, PCP does not consider me an addict. Placed on Ultram to control pain upon leaving hospital to use instead of T3. Ultram causes headaches and severe migraines. I have allergies to every single RX tried over the 15 years since diagnosis. Hematuria levels high. Unable to take Tylenol, Advil, Aleve products. The daily chronic pain is at least 5 on the 1-10 scale, at all times. Lidocaine patch works only sometimes. Pain Clinic told me there is nothing further they can do. I live in PA and want to try CBD Oil. Not available yet to patients. I feel like I will just die from the pain, I have no where to turn. Please help. I have not worked for three years. Need to apply for Disability, I do not have $5.00 in the bank to pay you for advice.
