Dear Marijuana,
Pleasehelp me! I am dying.
Crohns disease is killing me and has taken my livelihoodand is trying to take my life!
I am 48years old and I have been battling Crohns disease for 20 years now. I have had three surgeries and numerous , tomany to count visits to the Emergency Room. I have went from about 145 pounds to 97 pounds as of this last weeksvisit to the Emergency Room. I am on Fentynol patches, Xanax, Prozac,Omeperzole, Compazine and a couple of other things for nausea that dontwork. I am in pain everyday and severenausea which in turn has brought out severe depression. I used to be able to do anything I set mymind to and now I can barely do anything. When I reached under 100 pounds I realized this cant continue like thisif the doctors cannot figure out what is wrong with me then I guess I have totry everything I can that is why I am resorting to Medical Marijuana. I have no veins to get an IV even anymore sowhen I go to the Emergency Room it takes forever and three to seven pokes toget a vein. I have had them in my feet,in my groin, and have even had to have a port at one of my hospital stays to beable to treat me by IV.
I am ata point in my life where I dont even know how much is my Crohns diseaseanymore. I cannot get a handle on mydepression which I feel is due to being so ill and all the medicines I am onand have tried over the 20 years of having this horrific disease. I am not ready to die and no matter what Itake or what I do I have these attacks and no one can tell me why. I have had so many doctors and norelief. All cut up and on so manymedicines still I sometimes feel like I am losing my mind and all I want ishelp!!!!
