I've got lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, peripheral neuropathy, and other mixed connective tissue disorders. Cannabis saved my life.
I smoked back in school 20+ years ago and was told to try some when I had an immediate bad reaction to my weekly oral chemo pills a few years ago.
I lived in a state where it was not legal.
I got some through a jazz musician friend of mine ( stereotypical I know). It did wonders. I still switched chemo meds but the cannabis alleviated all the side effects from the new meds. It also helps with my inflammation and pain. I don't know how but it also helps with muscle deterioration that I get from my myositis. I sleep like a log now too and I am in a much better frame of mind now as well.
I was able to go back to work and I have not had a flare up in 3+ years. I consume daily.
I obtain high grade product to this day through different means (DM if curious about methods or just for support from someone who has been right where you are)
Florida has recently passed medicinal cannabis laws but is being super slow in implementing the process by which you get the card. I will probably get a card soon, but will definitely continue to be a refugee until then.
Cannabis saves lives and I'm glad it works for you.
