For the first years of my life all they did was prescribe me Ibuprofen for my pain and were reluctant to prescribe n*rcotic pain relievers because of the addiction issues. I now have two erosions in my intestines and suffer from severe indigestion and Gastro Paresis. These are so bad that I have to take the dangerous drug Regl*n for my symptoms. I have smoked marijuana since I was younger and find that I get more symptom relief than I do from any n*rcotic. When I finally found a doctor to help me with my pain, the opi*ids he prescribed just caused me severe constipation that only made my stomach and digestive problems worse. Not to mention the chemically addictive properties of the n*rcotics. I now have my Michigan MMJ id card and I am growing my own to save money. It is ridiculous how much an ounce of quality MMJ costs these days. I can’t wait until I can reap the rewards.
Bad knee's and Ibuprofen for me too. Same general results, can't eat anything that doesn't give me pain, cramps and.. well I won't mention how it comes out. I did find MJ the best and really only thing to help with those symptoms. I am still looking for ways to treat the actual pain. I found smoking no help, sure I could smoke enough that I could no longer stand, but my knee's would still throb. Now I've yet to try cooking, and from what I've read now a good Indica, cooked into butter and turned into a edible might be the ticket for my knee's too!

I can't wait to try!
