Feb 2015

I've rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, lupus nephritis, mixed connective tissue disease, dermatomyositis, and Raynauds.

I have pain daily, either from muscle deteriorating, cramping, or weakness. I refuse to take any more opiates.

I do not live in a state where cannabis is legal but I do not care. Laws be damned

It helps with the pain and peripheral neuropathy. If I smoke it for a week in a row, I feel it's effects for 3-5 days after that.

Find someone who can set you up and start experimenting for yourself on yourself.
