You Decide If Marijuana Is Gonna Be "It"
August 25, 2009
As a person who suffers with chronic pains, I like to do research on the various ways to ease chronic pain and tolerate pain flareups. I know that some of the ways we use to tolerate chronic pain today and to ease the pain flareups, won't be the same ways many people will be using in the near future. I have personally seen a heavy move towards the multimodal pain solution that is not reliant on the drug side so much. Right now, most multimodal solutions for tolerating chronic pain and for ways to ease pain flareups, tend to involve using more drugs in the therapy side.
That's been my primary motive for developing the multimodal system that I have been working on from a layman's point of view. Not being a doctor and being personally vested in finding ways to tolerate chronic pain, primarily mine, and ease pain flareups without increasing the drug side of the equation. I believe, based on my own success, that my multimodal pain solution fortolerating chronic pain, can be a benefit to some people. Of course, I always insist that people understand that I am not a doctor and my experiences are shared simply for sharing and are not to be taken as medical advice. I also insist and remind people that they should check with their doctor before beginning or trying any new regimen or treatments. I'm not a doctor, just a chronic pain sufferer and I am simply sharing what I do to help tolerate my chronic pain and to ease my pain flareups. Talk with your doctor and follow their advice. They are, afterall, trained medical professionals and know what they want you to do to help you tolerate your chronic pain and ease your pain flareup.
That's a perfect segue to the topic of this post. Is Marijuana gonna be the next "it" drug to help people tolerate chronic pain and ease pain flareups? Or is it gonna just be what it is, an illegal substance in most states, that some people are using to get what they say are benefits of pain relief from smoking the marijuana? And what about the medical marijuana? Some people are getting relief from the medical marijuana that is in certain markets for certain uses already. With the constant rush to find the next drug that will provide the kind of relief people in pain are searching for, marijuana is being researched and written about almost hourly. So, I am posting a few links to some of the articles updating the various points of view on marijuana and it's medical uses. Let me know what you think. I'm currently sitting on the bench watching to see what the outcome is going to be.
