Suffering from InflammatoryBD? This is the green you can consume without it ruining your day.
I’ve been in the midst of a super bummer of a flare (no pun intended) for about 2 months (I’m a non steroid user and haven’t opted for any surgeries I’m only one year into my diagnosis). I read about this strain on a IBD forum for chrones and UC. Decided to give it a shot. Why the hell not? I haven’t really been into weed for years i hate the paranoia and couch lock. I hate feeling like I’m an alien or being overly aware of my hands or pores.
Smoked half a preroll of it in the am when my cramping and bm’s make me bed ridden or bathroom floor ridden- and usually this means I’m unable to start my day or even get into work. Legit 20 min in to what is usually 3 hours of hell my cramps and tenesmus it all started subsiding my body relaxed my head wasn’t stressed out with the usual “wtf I’m dying. I should really see a doctor and try their steroids they keep pushing on me” thoughts.
IBD people should be aware it’s my choice to not try steroids due to mood swings mine are already bad enough. I have UC and use Lialda daily.
Amazingly I was able to get up and get ready. Mind you super damn slowly but i started my day. This def wasn’t a hundred cure all I still felt bad, but not the norm bad where I’m forced into the fetal position on the floor while tenesmus turns you into a marionette springing to life running to the loo every ten minutes. Yet I had an appetite and my body was relaxed enough and my head was less stressed. All the bad thoughts that come with the pain came but quickly left, and the pain was pretty much gone within an hour too!
The real surprise is it’s been 2 weeks of solid use and my bm’s are not a walk in the park but def way more normal and improving each day. I haven’t been bed ridden in the morning more than 15-30 minutes.
Mind you all of this is with a proper diet and lots of water and tons of supplements NAC, D3, zinc, turmeric, multi, probiotics etc. I haven’t added in exercise due to joint inflammation this past year but I’m starting to feel more normal. Even stairs haven’t been as painful. This strain makes me feel hopeful that within the next month I’ll be back at the gym.
All of this with no psychoactive affects and being able to have a clear head. I’m in love just wish it was steadily available in mass. Hopefully with Rec use legal in mass we will have more growers of this strain.
