I have been taking painkillers for so long now l have a few different problems such as Osteoarthritis, Fibromylagia, Depression and more. I have taken these tablets for quite a few years and got on OK with them until the last few months. I've started having a few stomach problems.
The above tablets Naproxen are the problem, I have to take these when my pain flares up, I used to take up to 2 Somedays then on other days none, these days were very few. When you take these meds you have to take another medication such as Lanzaprazole to stop the Naproxen from burning your stomach lining. I did this but still got problems, I now have Gastritis, my stomach hurts with constant gurgling. I now have to be careful what I eat as anything with a little spice makes me doubled up with pain.
Now why can't they prescribe Cannabis, I could probably come off all my painkillers and be a lot happier. I wouldn't know where to start with it, I would need someone to show me how to use it. Nearly 60 and hasn't a clue. If anyone has a Dummies book for Cannabis can I lend it. π
ON TO OTHER THINGS
I am planning my birthday, my daughter wants to go out for the day but hubby and my mother in law want to go for a meal to celebrate, looks like I'm going to have a busy day. Ny daughter wants to take me out for a shopping day as we really love those days together then get home for hubby to go for a meal. I am going to choose the restaurant, I want to go sonewhere new. That's my task for tomorrow to go ovine and search for a good restaurant that has good reviews. I haven't a clue what I want for my birthday, think I have everything I need, I've had 58 birthdays already, aslong as I have my favourite people around me then I'm happy. My hubby, daughter and mother in law are everything to me, they make my life better plus push me to do things instead of staying home. We all need a good support team around us.
I'm dreading next years birthday, I will be 60, its such a big number haha Do I book somewhere and have a big family party or do something else. 60... How did that happen.
Thank you for visiting ππ
Hi! Iβm not sure where you are located. But if you have access to legal cannabis I would suggest you start off with edibles.
Particularly a low thc high cbd dose. This would be referred to as a high cbd to low thc ratio, and the bud tender will know exactly what your looking for.
If you donβt have legal cannabis, I am sure you can still attain it. The easiest thing for you to do is to heat up a couple grams of flower in the oven for 30 min @230 degrees.
Then after baking lightly boil in some milk for 15 min.
Then strain the plant material, and add chocolate for flavoring if desired.
Drink a little and wait 15-30 min and see how you fell:)
Harder way is to make some canna butter, and then make your own edibles.
here is something I found online for you. Fell free to reach out to anyone in the cannabis community here on Hive. We are all willing to help!
Wow thank you for this I really appreciate your advice. I live in the UK, sadly its not legalised. I'll definitely check out your information and link. Thank you again π
I think in modern times 60 is not a big age at all. I myself am confidently going in this direction) It's more important to solve your pain problem. In my country, they are also discussing the possibility of legalizing cannabis. By the way, I read that it has a negative effect only on young people, at our age the effect is positive and this is very encouraging.
Ohh so getting old has a plus point haha its all been downhill since turning 40. π
