I swear if I ever see that guy I called out for missing so much work due to migraines, I will apologize profusely.
Then, I’m gonna take him for beers and pizza to commiserate about that condition.
Not six months after that got dismissed from the job, I had my first migraine. And it was life altering. These days, I’m nearly free of migraines thanks to the medical marijuana benefits from the cannabis flower products I now use. That too was a real shocker as I never would have thought that I’d be using cannabis products of any kind for any reason. I was pretty staunchly against the medical marijuana movement as well. Between calling out migraines sufferers as weak and being against medical marijuana, I was 0 for 2. The first migraine shocked me so bad that I thought I was having some sort of brain seizure or stroke. The pain was literally blinding and I couldn’t do anything but simply lay as still as I could in the dark. The slightest sound or big of light sent me into fits of pain. And that went on for something like 36 hours. The doctors gave me meds that did help. But when I learned about the medical marijuana benefits for migraine, I wanted to try because the side effects of the meds were rough. The people at the legal weed store were wonderful and helped me find the right cannabis products for me. I happen to use the cannabis gummies and nibble on one of those a bit each evening. The results have been off the charts as I’ve had one very mild migraine since then.
