I don t know what to do, can you help me?

Tricky. All the other back pain medications (narcotics, ultram, aspirin like drugs) are really MUCH worse than marijuana.
Fight (yeah, doesn't work)
Avoid
Substitute (as mentioned, I've got nothing on this)
Transcend.

Ok, enlist everyone to support you. Tell the situation to all your drug suppliers and ask their cooperation to not sell to you until delivery. Now.
get all the marijuana and ashtrays, and paraphenalia out and destroyed. Now. *that would be the transcend and also avoid.
