Do you or someone you love struggle with daily, chronic pain and feel frustrated with the lack of relief you find from traditional medications?  In this episode, you will meet Christine, an incredible 51-year-old woman who isn't afraid to admit that she grew up thinking of cannabis as a "drug" with no real value. Due to the physical demand of working as a dental hygienist for over a decade, she ultimately developed chronic pain, leading her to turn to her doctor, who prescribed pain medication to alleviate it. After taking the prescribed medication daily for years with little relief, she decided to wean herself off the medication and opt for natural remedies. It wasn't until one magical day, when Christine tried a vape pen from a friend, that she found immediate relief from her pain. She started researching cannabis and soon after obtained her medical marijuana card. Cannabis has not only helped her chronic pain but also her anxiety, which she didn't even know she had. Ultimately, cannabis has helped her feel better, improve her quality of life, and develop an improved relationship with her family. While Christine is still new to discussing her cannabis use, she believes it's important to share her story and help educate others who could also benefit from this plant. Tune in to listen in and discover how cannabis can be an effective alternative to prescription medications for chronic pain and can improve your quality of life, just like it did for Christine.
