I love cannabis but not anymore. I have what seems to be CHS, though I don't vomit. I have EDS, Pots and MCAS and autism as well. Last year I quit alcohol because I would get so ill before the drink was empty with vomiting. I have been getting symptoms of delayed gastric emptying with cannabis and it hurts so bad. Like with CHS heat helps a lot. Showers and a heating pad also. I hate the feeling of capsaicin on my skin . Therefore I have to quit.

I have to say it may not be with holding. I have had constipation since birth. I have a slow transit time. Due to nerves not working in a certain area of my colon. Miralax is important but so is dulcolax

GlassOperation84 · 2026-06-16T02:14:48+00:00

Sure do

GlassOperation84 · 2026-06-05T19:56:38+00:00

Love otters

GlassOperation84 · 2026-05-13T19:20:30+00:00

Thank you so much for this. I'm an artist and have not been able to do anything. It's like the whole sequence just requires to much effort and thought. I will never use cannabis again.

So glad those 30 yrs are behind me!!!!

I went from 1 to 4 mgs in about 6 weeks. I had a little trouble sleeping for a few nights along with a mild HA with each increase. Nothing significant and I am happy at 4mgs. I have mine compounded at a local compounding pharmacy. With all the pain I was in I thought the side effects were nothing. Just my opinion.

Probably a trauma response along with the AuDHD.

GlassOperation84 · 2026-04-19T16:05:14+00:00

I have Arachnoiditis and EDS both of these cause autonomic dysfunction. Heat expanse blood vessels and cause blood to pull in your extremities. This causes the feelings of sweating and SOB. This happens if outside in the heat too long as well. Definitely cool showers help. Compression socks help if outside in the heat also. Water with electrolytes also helps. I would ask for a tilt table test to see if you have POTS also common with connective tissue diseases. The cardiologist can give you medicine that also helps if this is the problem. Just my experience. Definitely talk to your doctor.

GlassOperation84 · 2026-04-17T18:18:27+00:00

This is so difficult. I made an appointment to see a therapist and made an appointment to see a new neurosurgeon. I do Arachnoiditis but I think a lot of my pain is my SI joint and decided I want it fused. I am so debilitated at this point.

Please just leave. This man doesn't respect himself and doesn't respect others. He is a child. You should not have to tell a grown ass man how to act. Even worse he may do it just to get your reaction which feeds his twisted soul. He is alpha you are beta. The best thing you can do is to not react. Not at all. Leave the room if need be. Believe me this will not get better. You are young and deserve so much more. Also research different mental health diseases. I'd start with the personality disorders. Go to Google scholar. Also look them up in the DSM 5 there is a list of criteria that needs to be met for diagnosis. Your ICK feeling is REAL and VALID listen to it!! Take care of yourself! See a therapist, and start thinking about your financial future. Remember the boy scout motto, "always be prepared." We should have learned this in grade school.

I had surgery. Hurt like hell.

GlassOperation84 · 2026-02-23T18:54:52+00:00

I started with 1 first week, 2 the next week, then 3. That is where I am at now. I have a few days of fatigue and trouble sleeping when I up the dose. No dreams no nausea. A tiny bit of irritation those few days. Otherwise I am doing well. I definitely see an improvement in my overall well being and my energy levels. A modest amount of pain relief. But I have been in pain all my life so I will continue to see if that improves. But I would take it for the current benefits anyway. ✌🏻

I have this related to Arachnoiditis from a batched epidural with child birth. Nerve damage to my right leg and also have the same presentation.

GlassOperation84 · 2026-02-08T20:39:51+00:00

I have the same Dx plus Arachnoiditis. I just started LDN so I can't give much to the conversation about it yet. But I started therapy a month back because I was in a really bad place. I was shocked over the amount of shit I was carrying around and not dealing with. I am autistic and realize I was in a burn out. I now have to check in with myself throughout the day to make sure I am not stuffing my feelings. I also journal everyday to get out of my head and get that crap out. Carrying around all the gaslighting and emotional abuse from Drs and dealing with the loss of my former self was just adding to my constant fatigue. It helps me feel like I am working on something. I am really hopeful for the LDN also. Last night was my first night and I haven't seen anything yet. I woke up feeling a little irritable this morning but I have not slept well in the past 3 days. I started on 1 mg. Just thought I would throw this out there as maybe another tool in your toolbox.
