@rwinney Due to COVID I have been home since March 14 but I am now teaching kindergarten 3 days a week. I can't sit home, for me it is better if I can get out and do something to take my mind off of myself and my issues. I do have a friend who has a medical card and I have gotten some marijuana through her. I am not crazy about the side effects, but it does help the pain. I use a small amount when home and have no plans to go anywhere. I actually could go and buy it myself. Really don't need a card since it is legal here.

Suzanne2 and rwinney, Can you describe the pain reduction as a percentage. Moderate severe to severe pain it’s like 5 to 7/10. Living without pain for 12 hours per day is like 50% pain-free. The math is 12/24. What are the side effects that you experience? Have you’ve been able to reduce any of the side effects ?

@suzanne2 Great! I'm glad you have found help with your pain. If that works for you, then go for it!!

My only suggestion is that medical marijuana dispensaries, although there is more expense in getting legally certified, offer many product options for experimentation and provide pharmacists guidance on products and safety.

It's AWESOME that you are back teaching! I know that's a win, win for both yourself and the kids. Take care, stay safe
