Since this topic is about legal medical marijuana, I’m presuming this is ok to discuss. As some may recall, I have chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). I like to call it a vampire’s disease as it drains you of your all your energy and spirit. It leaves the victim feeling like one of those withered husks of a human being after the vampire is finished (see Lifeforce). I’m not writing it this way be humorous. Your entire life is altered. I’d like to have seen the last Avatar a couple times more, but I did not have the will to do it. We’ve had tickets (good seats) to see touring companies of Tootsie, Hamilton, Aladdin and others. I’ve missed them all.
I applied for an received a MM card. At first I tried tinctures and edibles but they did little good but my wife was against smoking the flower since I have mild asthma and a paralyzed right diaphragm. We talked to my pulmonologist and while he was not endorsing MM, he did say smoking it was far less concerning than smoking tobacco since there is no nicotine. That eased my wife’s concerns and now I’m not smoking MM but vaping it with a dry herb vaporizer. Vaping the MM has made a significant difference. I have more energy and a better attitude.
By no means am I normal or made whole by the MM, but it is a huge help. Which is more than I can say for the medical community. No doctor I’ve encountered knows what to do about it and they don’t even attempt to research it or treat it. I’m tired of getting maladies than’t can’t be treated. They can put put in a pacemaker of sorts to stimulate the phrenic nerve to make the diaphragm move but only when both diaphragms are paralyzed.
I cringe when I remind myself that my Parkinson’s is disease that doesn’t stand still. So far, it’s just tremors in my left hand and leg, but if I live long enough that’ll change. I digress, I started this to discuss MM. Does anyone else use it? Is it helping you?
