When you lose something like your mobility, it’s just no joke.
I felt like my life was just coming apart at the seams as my inflammatory condition continued to rob me of my normal life.
I was only 42 when this issue suddenly appeared and nearly wrecked my life. Thanks to trips to the cannabis dispensary, I’m now finding my way back to being active again. The doctors were stumped as to the cause of my inflammation. It was in all my joints as well as much of the connective tissue as well. I honestly felt as though I got run over by a truck. Prior to figuring out how to get my medical marijuana card, I used the pain meds that were prescribed to me. But these pain meds and the anti-inflammatory drugs only did so much. It wasn’t like I could take them and I was suddenly cured. Instead, I put up with a lot of bad side effects that were just adding insult to injury. Thankfully, a friend heard that I was struggling. This was a person I had sort of lost touch with after I was basically homebound. This person actually came to my house to give me all the medical marijuana information she had accumulated. She’d had back issues and found medical marijuana to be a big help. So I’ve been treating with cannabis flower products now for nearly a year and it’s hard to believe that I’m the same person. I’m back at the office and taking beginner yoga classes as well. I’m also taking much better care of myself with what I put in my body, the amount of stress that I deal with and making sure I get my rest.
