I'm bed bound, except for trips to the bathroom and kitchen. I can barely talk with people. I'm going out of my mind living like this. I can use the computer, but reading and concentrating is very hard, so I can't really do any fulfilling acitivites. My mental health has become shit lately. Depression, anxiety, and just generally a mess, which isn't surprising I guess, considering my cirumstances. Life is just overall very unbearable.
I have constant lactic acid burn in my legs, which is driving me mad. I wouldn't really call it pain, and I don't feel like it deserves pain medication (I'm worried about causing more harm to my body with medication), but it's bad enough that I can't stop thinking about it, and it's impossible to rest. I'm just doing nothing, but not resting either.
For years I've been working really hard with diet and supplements and any lifestyle changes that could possibly give me some relief, but nothing is working so far and I'm just getting worse and worse. I'm desperate. I still have some things left to try, like LDN, and if that doesn't work I have hope for things like rituximab in the future. Therefore my main priority right now is just finding ways to make it through each day. But it's becoming unbearable living like this.
I know it's possible to get medical cannabis in Norway, though I think it's a difficult and long process, so I don't know if it's worth trying to get it. (And my doctor won't even give me perscription for B12 injections, so I don't know how I would ask for something like this, but maybe it's worth a shot.)
What I'm thinking is that it might be a good thing to have on hand, for the most unbearable days. What I hope to get relief for is the lactic acid burn, and anxiety and just being able to relax more. As well as maybe making social situations less demanding, as it might help with anxiety and not make me excert myself so much.
Anyone have experience with using it?
Is there other things you would recommend instead?
