From what I hear, FM is a bitch of a painful time. If you're in that much pain, why would you even think twice about trying a plant to alleviate the pain? More people die every year from Asprin than in the history of cannabis. So unless you have a damn good job to protect or a PO to impress; why would you not try it once? I never understood the logic. If it doesn't work, don't use it again 20 bucks down the toilet, if it does work; congrats. Marijuana is not like a tube sock, it's not 1 size fits all. Research what strains other FM patients use. If you have a dispensary, go in and talk about your options. Look into other methods then smoking. Cooking it is great for patients who are overweight. You can use the oil to make a dressing for your dinner salad and not be tempted to eat Cheetos all night. Ever hear of vaporizing? Cough drops, lotions, suppositories, tinctures... the list can get longer. And FYI,not all of us get high off of it. I can take 8mg Dilaudid, 30mg Oxucodone and smoke 6 bowls and still be in mild pain and not be high if I'm having a bad night. Not all of us are uneducated stoners who cant hold conversation. Facebook, Myspace, Gmail, Yahoo! IM and Skype are all mrgreenlungz |
"When I was diagnosed about 18 months ago with fibromyalgia, I didn't know where to turn. I got on my computer and looked for a support group where I could talk to other people with the same disease and get some help...Information, suggestions, mostly just what I can do now that I have this.....disorder/disease/syndrome...I didn't even know what to call it. I found MDJ, and yes, there was a support group for fibro. I started a post, and figured I would never get an answer. However, very quickly I was welcomed in, and became really involved in the group. I received help, support, friendship and the feeling of being truly cared about by these strangers who had become like family to me. Now, I have been here for about a year and a half...I have become a group leader, and love every minute of it. It is so wonderful to be able to help others. I still receive help and answers from the members in this group. The fibromyalgia is where I go to help, support, listen, care and even laugh. I don't know what I would do without this group."
