Stroke and Marijuana
Dangerously I have been using cannabis as a medicine for a stroke I had earlier in my life. I have fully gained movement in my body neck down. I still have facial weakness on the left side of my face.
After inhaling the plant I would begin to stretch and still do til this day. It’s like when I smoke I feel more relaxed as it’s like I get to be who I really am. Sometimes when I’m sitting my face twitches. I have identified it as muscles that’s connected through the neck. The muscles seem to be raveled up and stretching unravels the muscle allowing more movement all the way down to my toes.
Sometimes I dream about smiling and I wake up thinking that the next day I can and then I look in the mirror and see things are the same.
Stretching definitely helps but it’s a slow hustle and it takes patience. Be easy on yourself cause this is different and no one will understand so just focus on balancing recovery and work.
Let me know if anyone else has had experience?
