Hydrocodone 5-325 3x a day vs Medical Marijuana Option

I have chronic pancreatitis- had a morphine pump for 6 years, got a MRSA infection when they tried to change out for a new one and was put on Methadone for 6 years. My Dr at the time also prescribed Marinol (synthetic thc pills). 6 months ago my pain dr stopped the methadone. It was HELL and I'm still not 100% back to "normal" anyway, long story short I got my medical marijuana card and am also on 3 of the 5/325 Norcos. I wish everyone knew how bad Methadone really is and all the bad things it does as it wasn't explained to me- just placed on it so I wouldn't have detox from the morphine pump. If there is anyway at all that you can do it with the least amount of meds you can, I highly suggest that. Now I have no weight gain with weed I actually lost 35 lbs during the methadone detox and as far as the sleepiness goes- get Sativa for daytime. Also, I mainly do the edibles because I have so much stomach pain but the RSO oil has so many benefits and could possibly help you sleep at night. I'm so sorry you're in so much pain and I pray you find what works for you Just remember that everyone is different and what works best for some can do little for others. Start slow, experiment, and enjoy 💕

@ksaint76 i loved methadone over the other opiates but my belly started looking like the side of a 12” sirloin. So i did some research and found out this Italian med student did a paper on hypothyroidism & methadone and the bottom line was those with under active thyroid's should not take methadone. Took 6 months to remove the fat pad.
