I had a recent conversation with a friend about pain and Cannabis - My friend uses morphine for serious on going back pain. I keep suggesting cannabis. BUT her past experiences with cannabis (seems like everyone I know has tried it a few times in their lives) have not been good. She said she can not function on it, it either made her paranoid or want to sleep.
Although both aware of what long term morphine use can do she still choses to use prefer morphine. Yet I have heard some horror stories of people who have used morphine and it really messed with their minds and bodies. IT all does boil down to personal CHOICE. You chose to use what ever makes you feel BETTER! And who is anyone to judge you for your choice? We should support each other. Its not about right and wrong but to help ease suffering. Lets agree to disagree.
Our bodies make the choice for us. Not long ago I tried a new medication and within a few hours I had a terrible reaction, yet I am sure many people take this medication with success. OUR bodies sometimes make the choice for us. I do know that with the more I learn, I am more convinced in many ways to lean to natural medicine.
I now read all leaflets, I was amazed to read this new one I am taking..
(below) TECTA to help with my stomach issues had a warning on it that to me was amusing - being a Pro. cannabis cartoonist. It states taking this medicine one can prove FALSE positive for cannabis! ?? I hope that no one had a drug test and lost their job or went to jail being on this medication and not aware!
People say BLAME big pharm. But at this point from -now on .. I blame myself for NOT educating myself! READ the leaflets (tiny print) KNOW what you are putting into your body. We can't blame Dr.s - how can they possibly stay on top of all of this and look after all of US!? As for BIG pharm. you can only lie for so long and I believe the truth is coming out.
I KNOW what cannabis can do.
I do not believe all prescribed medications are bad I DO believe the cocktail that we put in our bodies, one for this and one for that are seriously toxic and not nearly enough research has been done.
For now make sure if you know anyone taking this medication they could be busted. xox
EDUCATE yourself.
