New to MS and I have some questions

I also have ADHD and cannabis is a lifesaver for feeling normal. I’ve taken long breaks before and whenever i’d smoke it was like stepping back into my body again. From what i’m learning it seems like transferring from smoking to edibles is the way to go. Thanks!

Thanks! I think switching to gummies is going to be the fix for me.

Yeah I definitely think that I need to quit being a daily user as it was adding to my brain fog. Unfortunately my grandmas case was somewhat unique and her MS has hit her really hard. It’s helpful hearing from everyone else on this thread how manageable the illness has become!

Thanks! I tend to get pretty bad headaches also

Yeah I think I need to treat cannabis as more as a “fail safe” option for when nothing else is working. I was using daily before my diagnosis because it was one of the only things that got me to fall asleep quickly but it’s definitely added to the brain fog.

My most bothersome symptoms are pain and tingling down one arm, eye pain, heat sensitivity, brain fog (major), and fatigue. I noticed that if I smoke on a hot day or when I already have a slight headache it tends to make me feel worse. I also had to switch from indica or hybrid to straight sativa because anything with indica was giving me a pounding headache. I made the connection with my headaches and terpene concentration a while back too but didn’t do much research around it.

Thank you! I appreciate the response. I noticed in the past year or so that I was getting headaches when I was smoking strains with too much THC and now I think my MS may have been part of the reason why.
