I tried medical cannabis for pain

I’ve been living with pain and injury since childhood. Now, that pain has a name - hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. For years, my GP has tried and failed to get my pain under control. It’s not her fault as my health issues are complex and varied. As well as hEDS, I also have severe endometriosis, adenomyosis, polycystic ovary syndrome and suspected hEDS co-morbidity disautonomia.

The bottom line is, I deal with a lot of pain and discomfort, hour to hour, every day, always. After reading reports of other women with similar health issues to me finding success and relief with medical cannabis, I decided to give it a go.
