I've been writing letters to the assholes behind HB 1789 asking if they really are trying to make it harder for people like me to afford cannabis, and explain the effects their regulations would have on RSO, hashes and concentrates and things they don't even have a clue exist, and beg them to just leave it alone. Sigh....
I had brain surgery earlier this week and it just pisses me off they don't give you a cannabis option to opiates.
Did you speak with your neurosurgeon about using Cannabis? Make sure you tell him. They are usually fairly cool about it. If he gives you any negative ask him SPECIFICALLY in your case how this could possibly harm you. Copy what he says. Also try to get OFF the oxycodone, move to straight Morphine Sulphate immediate release. Get them in the 15's (smallest dose) and get a LOT. Then just take them as you need to take the edge off. The long actings are hell. Get off it now while you can.
Also though not reported there is a lot of dizziness associated with the longer release medications. That will be denied by the medical community and blamed on your surgery. But that's another reason you need to get off any continuous release stuff.
They won't want to give you MSIR. Just keep begging and beggng. It's the easiest to get off of, really. But of course it's only pennies for pill so they keep trying to push the big time expensive *codone's that are great for addicting people but terrible for actual pain relief (my anecdotal experience).
Also to the folks in WA down here in CA you would drown in the free Cannabis or at least the people I know would react that way. Why isn't anyone helping you in WA? I don't get it didn't you guys just legalize? Am I misunderstanding something? I'm not from WA so I have zero business here. But I just had to ask.
Bless you and good luck on this path,
