So, I got my medical marijuana license.
The doctor was pretty cool. No fuss, no muss.
The most arduous part of the process was applying for the actual license. For some reason, that was an extended pain in my ass. Resolved finally.
The purchase was . . .different. I went with Trulieve, because they have an awesome reputation for quality and (most important imho) consistency of product. The rep I talked to was extremely helpful (Thanks again Gabby!) and hand-held my ignorant ass through the whole process.
I've been using "the good shit" for a week now. Here's the difference:
Smoking street flower kept the pain at bay enough to let me get a few hours of sleep here & there. I was, however, reaching the point where I was waking up, smoking, going back to bed as soon as the pain let up. That was becoming life.
CBD oil & vaping as well as a separate THC vaping pen have me waking up without pain. I spent most of my days without pain as well. It is letting me work around the pain to deal with . . .life. I made my bed the other day!! I've picked up cooking again! I sewed yesterday. I'm getting a LOT more CBD to THC in my ratios now & life is a better place. Still working through some of the anxiety, but I have the energy to do it now that I'm getting a good night's sleep (we didn't target anxiety relief strains as much as pain relief). I'm on a pretty low dose of . ..everything at the moment so there's wiggle room for later.
So, thanks to the miracles of cannabis & modern tech - I have beaten back this-disease monster one more time and grabbed my life back. Life is looking good.
