Hello to all of my CannaLuvs,
As many of you know, I myself am a patient first & foremost. I am a TRIGEMINAL Neuralgia Warrior. If you have not heard of this disease, I ask you to take a moment to do a little research. As it may give you a little insight to what I try to live with daily. The pain is so unbearable that the patient suicide rate is so sad to even take in to mind. Many Doctors are misdiagnosing patients, or just dismissing the pain as "It's all in your head!" If this blog post even reaches one other patient to help support them then I will feel completely accomplished.
As many of you know from following me on I.G., Snap, and Twitter is that this month has been rough on my body, mind, & spirit. I suffer from one of the top 10 pains in the world. I've been in & out of episodes (flare ups) for the entire month of October. The difficult weather patterns we have been having have caused so much ache for me. The sinus pressure is triggering my nerve to swell, my left side of my face droops & swells (stroke-like), the winds blowing on my face causes an episode, even just the gentle stroke of a makeup brush can set it off (FYI... I LOVE MAKEUP lol). I can not even brush my teeth sometimes due to the extreme pain.
I have people ask me daily why I smile so much... Well, at one point my disease was so bad that I had to endure about a year and a half of physical therapy to attempt to recover the nerve damage in my face that was so bad that I looked like an elephant woman had a stroke. I have permanent nerve damage down my entire left side of my body. I am constantly in pain as though someone has me on fire, and is sticking me with needles. When I go into an episode it can last seconds, minutes, hours, days, and at some points months. It is going to get progressively worse as the years come and go. I am on the younger side of patients diagnosed. As the average patient is 50+. I struggled with the vanity of this disease for so long... I DONT CARE ANYMORE lol... I worked so hard to be able to smile again that I refuse to allow anyone to put it out.
I am a Cannababy lol... as in, I was introduced to the idea of cannabis as a solution only less than a year ago. I never really dabbled in the Marijane world growing up much. However, I am so blessed by the Green of God! Cannabis has been helping me with pain management, helped me meet so many wonderful patients, friends, 420 FAMILY, and of course my whole 420 Nurses Family. I owe so much of my medical cannajourney to @GANJAMOMMA_, the PRESIDENT & CHAPTER LEADER of the 420Nurses of the Central Valley. I have 2 of the Best Chapters of my very own personal 420NURSES helping in my Cannajourney. I LOVE MY Central Valley & Los Angeles Chapters.
I am so thrilled to be apart of this Network to help others. As Cannabis has helped me I will continue to move forward as a 420Nurse Intern to help promote and educate people on the benefits.
I am most reachable through I.G. and I am always open to Q&As (Questions & Answers).
THANK YOU 4 ALL OF YOUR LUV & SUPPORT,
