I had been taking the same pain medication for almost 25 years, every multiple months, they were now upping the dosage, and I wasn’t feeling well, i felt enjoy I was walking around in a fog; My ears were ringing all the time, and I had bouts of extreme dizziness.
The dentist asked what the pain level was, and I told him it improved, however I did not enjoy the way I felt, she insisted we up the dosage of our pain medication, however I wasn’t buying it.
I told him that if she upped it once more; I was going to change dentists. Two weeks later, I was talking to a different Dr. who commanded I get weaned off the pain medication I was now on. She told me that if I was in so much pain; she wanted me to try something different. Her suggestion of something different was that I tried medical marijuana. She said marijuana was area of a holistic health approach to life. Holistic health was based around herbs and other products found in nature… Although marijuana was at the root of holistic health with medical, that did not mean that it wasn’t a lifestyle worth trying. She sent me to a pain management dentist who practice holistic health, and she said she would contact him before I got there; When I arrived at the pain management clinic with the holistic health dentist; she looked enjoy any other kindly ancient dentist I had been to, but she lived in a current world. She told me that holistic health was nothing more than what the Indians used numerous centuries ago. If marijuana was fantastic enough for her ancestors and mine, then it should be fantastic enough for us to handle pain and other current ailments.
