Medical cannabis to treat migraines
I work for myself.
Most of my job can be accomplished from home.
Additionally, the majority of my responsibilities revolve around a computer and online access. When I come down with a migraine, I am unable to stare at my screen, much less complete my workload. That’s really bad for my productivity and stress level. With the help of medical cannabis, I am able to get back to work much sooner. The doctor put me on some meds that were supposed to lessen the frequency of my migraines. I experienced some side-effects that were worse than my headaches. The pharmaceuticals didn’t help me feel better or lessen the pain any faster. Being a bit health conscious, I decided to look into a more natural approach to migraine management. I researched some cannabis information and was impressed with recent studies and testimonials. That encouraged me to attend a cannabis event put on at a legal weed store. This provided the opportunity to talk to a budtender about different cannabis products available and the medical benefits as they pertain to migraines. The budtender was sure that the products sold at the cannabis dispensary could help me. Cannabis products are natural and have no long-term, harmful side-effects. No one has ever overdosed on marijuana. There are sativa, indica and hybrid strains to choose from. I can go with a high THC level or strictly CBD products. I’ve experimented with smoking flower, vaping, dabbing concentrates, tinctures and edibles. I’ve even tried topicals with great results. Medical cannabis has made a huge difference in my suffering. I am able to head off the pain before it negatively impacts my quality of life.
