Ok so my grandmother had a tiny little benign tumor removed last year. This Tumor just happened to be pressing up against the nerve endings of her inner-ear giving her the symptoms of vertigo.

Now the vertigo is gone but she constantly has headaches and pain in that area. I feel so bad for her cuz shes on all these types of pain and nerve medications that don't help that much.

I'd like bring up her trying cannabis to help the pain and give her a better quality of life but I'm not sure how to do so seeing I come from a pretty conservative family and her son (my uncle) has been a crack addict his whole life so "drugs" are a touchy subject.

I'm not from a medical state.

any sugestions on how to do so or anybody else been in a similiar situation?

I would mention medical marijuana and see if she takes the bait. Maybe she willl be interested and say that it's something she would like to try but doesn't know how to get it. My grandma asked me if I coudl get her some marijuana, we have smoked together. We were in a state where it's not legal LOL.

My sister and I both have cards here in Maine. Our mom passed away back in '79 after a long battle with breast and brain cancers. My sister only recently told me that for the last two years of my mom's life, my sister brought her a joint to smoke almost every night. I had no idea lol

IMO you be honest with all your family, grandmother too. Just tell her what your idea is and let her deside herself. Think about eatibles every body says they are great and she might think different about it. Good luck hope you can help her.
