I’ve actually smoked since I was 13 and in my 20’s went through the equivalent of being treated like a “prospect” by a bunch of bikers that grew. You’d have thought I was in “school”. I’m a group home/street kid that was thrown out of the system at 16 and into the streets. A little over a year before my accident I had a chance to become a Juvenile Corrections officer and help kids who were like I was. So for the first time in my life I quit weed and did the job. Then my accident happened.
When I say this is my meds i truly mean it. I have a crushed left rib cage(67+ breaks/fractures front and back), shattered sternum with three separated ribs, My S-1 is blown, my L4/L5 stabilizers are fractured, over 6 compressed discs, My C7-C9 are micro fractured, and I have a pacemaker (my heart is healthy as a horses) in my heart because the nerve damage is so bad, when I lay down my heart stops for 40+ seconds which causes a hypoxia seizure. My left arm is permanently “pins and needles”. I have nerve pain all over my body at odd times. I’ve never had any surgery and am always in 7-10 pain levels.
I laid a bike skidding sideways at about 65 MPH down about 10-15 feet from a unmoving car. The bike stopped..... I didn’t. I shot off the bike like a bullet never hitting pavement and slamming into the car with my left side at what they estimate was 55+ MPH.
To illustrate how bad it was . You would have to jump off a 10 story building for your body to reach 55 MPH.
For 6 years I was on 60mg of oxy 3 times a day, 8 mg of dilaudid 4 times a day and a .25 mcg fentynl patch. We went to Jamaica and I smoked for the first time in 4 years (I have lung issues now as well) as I didn’t think smoke would be good on them. Not only could I smoke, but I literally went into withdrawals from forgetting to take my meds on time. When we got back I went to my doctor explained what I wanted and we weened me off the narcotics. Over 9 years my doctor has learned a few things. Before I started smoking again, because I’m on true horrific pain all the time my blood pressure was always high. Me on a active day to see stroke level BP’s of 160/120 was common. Since Cannabis is a natural blood pressure reducer. Now we’ve add simple BP meds and my BP is now like a normal persons when before the cannabis BP meds didn’t touch it. Also inhaling cannabis stops/hinders bronchial spasms. It was actually used to treat asthma until 1920’s when it was demonized. Before using cannabis I used to have reactive asthma attacks 2-3 times a day. Since 2012 I haven’t had one. My pulmonologist still fights with me about it but he has a hard time arguing with the results. I actually almost have a normal life. Because of cannabis.
