I am 24 years old and since I was a little child I have been cursed with one of the worst cases of JRA (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis) ever. Now, with brittle bones and constricted muscles I have very little choices in what meds I have to take just to stay out of the red zone. After growing up on hundreds of pharmaceuticals my digestive system is shot. I have had several procedures to help with the gi problems but the only thing that I have had any luck with at all is simply quitting the pharmaceuticals all together. After being on a feeding tube for a very long time I wanted nothing to do with meds. My mother never wanted me to take the pharmaceuticals but she had no choice. The doctors said that if she stopped giving me the meds that they would turn her into children services. When I turned 18 I had the power to turn down the meds myself. I then turned to Marijuana for my pain management. Aside from pain management, I have practically no appetite. Probably from the damage done on the inside. Pot makes me hungry. It takes my pain and inflammation down to practically nothing. Some people don’t believe me when I say that but it is a fact in my life. I live in Ohio and I have heard that I could some how get marijuana for my situation. Is this true? Can I get the one drug that helps me more than it hurts me? I hate the ropes I have to go through just to eat more and live a little. Any advice? Any knowledge?
