Eight years ago, I decided to try medical marijuana for treatment for my fibromyalgia and chronic pain. I was extremely ill, had never tried marijuana in my life, and was looking for answers after having had jumped from physician to physician trying to find relief from my pain.

The very first dose of cannabis I took made me feel like a 21 year-old again—within days I began to be able to move my toes without pain. Soon, I was able to walk without assistance from a wheelchair, and within the next five years, I was no longer at risk for glaucoma.

As life-changing as medical marijuana is, it's difficult to figure out what will work best for you by yourself. Having a coach with the ability to educate you, accompany you, and assist with effective dosing is the key to a happier, healthier lifestyle.
