Medical Marijuana Patient #9 Jim McMahon - Former NFL Chicago Bears Quarterback Trades in Pain Pills

                      

 Arizona Medical Marijuana Patient #9 Jim McMahon

                                       
KindGreenBud
    We all believed #9 would be a Quarterback, a Chicago Bear Quarterback forever both literally and figuratively. Known both on and off the field as the ultra-tuff former Chicago Bears Quarterback. As a player in his heyday he was well known as being one of the roughest toughest QB's in the league. Playing the game with such reckless abandon which so many times led to him miraculously making something from nothing on the Football field as a result. McMahon it seemed while playing in the NFL had no idea he was a Quarterback often taking on Massive Linebackers head-on trying to reach the end-zone. 

                          
Unfortunately the hits did add up and Jim was diagnosed with Arthritis as a result. Read more...

Former Chicago Bears quarterback, Jim McMahon, has kicked pain pills out of his life. The combination of medical marijuana and chiropractic treatment to relieve pressure in his neck have improved his quality of life.
McMahon used to take up to 100 pain pills per month. Now, he uses medical marijuana three times a day to treat his arthritic pain from injuries sustained during his NFL career, reports the Chicago Tribune.


BRONCOS VS PANTHERS
           McMahon is a patient in Arizona’s medical marijuana program. When asked about treating his pain with pain pills, he said, “They were doing more harm than good. This medical marijuana has been a godsend. It relieves me of the pain — or thinking about it, anyway.”


            One of the main reasons that the former NFL player is going public about his medical marijuana use status is because of his struggles with Illinois’s medical marijuana program, which does not currently have chronic pain as a qualifying condition. Illinois lawmakers believe chronic pain to be too broad of a category that could lead to abuse.

          Maybe the most telling aspect is that McMahon’s advocacy for medical marijuana is purely from his own personal experience. The relief he’s found for his arthritis from marijuana he has said on many occasions that the Medical Marijuana does a much better job than the hundreds of Percocet painkillers he was taking previously. Without any of the side-effects that come with medication, all medication.

         
Patient No# 9
Fortunately since kicking the pain killers out in exchange for Medical Marijuana the former Quarterback readily admits that his quality of life has greatly improved in many ways. Jim McMahon one of the most well-known Quarterbacks ever to play in the NFL is a great advocate for the Pro-Medical Marijuana initiatives here in Arizona. Hopefully as acceptance grows with education more and more patients will be allowed to openly attest to just how successful Medical Marijuana really is as a natural medicine...Thanks Jim!

Arthritis - Ease The Pain With Jack The Ripper

Arthritis
A form of  joint disorder  that involves  inflammation  of one or more joints



With over 100 different forms of arthritis its a condition that's hard to put a finger on exactly. Being defined as a  joint-disorder it can potentially take hold throughout the body, anywhere. The most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis a very uncomfortable degenerative joint disease with no real basis the condition can be brought several ways including
* As a result of joint trauma
* Infection of the joint
*Age .

Other common forms of arthritis include;
*Rheumatoid arthritis
*Psoriasis arthritis (and related autoimmune diseases).
* Septic arthritis ( caused by joint  infection).

The major complaint by far from individuals with arthritis is joint pain. The pain is severe and  often constant unbearable in many cases in many cases the pain may be localized to the joint affected. The pain from arthritis is due to  inflammation  that occurs around the joint, damage to the joint from disease, daily wear and tear of joint, muscle  strains  caused by forceful movements against stiff painful joints and  fatigue. It is as painful as it sounds.

The Benefits 


Cannabis Oil


Again here Medical Marijuana seems to be nice fit for such a condition and its symptoms. What I mean is that Medical Marijuana is an excellent anti-inflammatory agent. A major issue in its own right when it comes Arthritis.There are two cannabinoids found in marijuana that have especially profound efficacy for those with arthritis: CBD and THC. CBD, or cannabidiol, is responsible for immune system modulation, meaning it is helpful for an autoimmune condition like rheumatoid arthritis. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol and byproducts of its metabolism has been found to be anti-inflammatory and analgesic (pain killing).

All pain from arthritis can be relieved with Medical Marijuana. In the true science of the "Domino effect" Medical Marijuana reduces inflammation thus reducing pain finally allowing the patient to return to a normal pattern of sleep, which are two highly productive traits for someone suffering from arthritis. Less pain more sleep! As almost a bonus the THC is well known to reduce the anxiety and depression that commonly accompany severe diseases as Arthritis were one's mobility is effected.

Medical Cannabis Strain AK-47 Assault The Pain



Strannabis By David Allen Greene

The ongoing education of Medical Cannabis strains
Featured Strain: AK- 47


3rd Place 1995 Netherlands Cannabis Cup

Hybrid= 60% Sativa / 40% Indica
Origins: Colombian, Mexican, Thai & Afghani
Flowering: 56-63 days
Harvest: mid October

The best weapon against pain...AK-47



Tipsy
Born back in 1992 the strain AK-47, is well-known world-wide for its deep dark, resinous, busy buds sprinkled heavily with red hairs and glistening trichomes which all culminated to create a medical miracle in the form of Cannabis.

As one of the best known Medical strains (or outright strains for that matter) it continues at over 20 years old to be majestically manipulated and touched into a better hybrid each time, is one that truly lived up to its name. As a dominant Sativa it will deliver an excellent body high nice and uplifting that also brings about a true creative effect also. One of few buds that actually increases energy it brings up a nice strong urge to “make something happen” but in a nice creative way. Colors, words, music all seem to be a lo more fluffier once up under the gun of this AK-47, so be careful. And whatever you do make sure you get in the big 3, see, smell and taste, especially this strain. Take a few minutes and look at it...the AK-47 strain is uniquely beautiful in it own right, smell it and of course by all means taste it. A truly unique bud as the smell and taste are slightly different almost unheard of in medical marijuana strains.



I especially like how as a Sativa-dominate strain it still does a great job effectively handling most Indica-related medical effects as well. A true medically bred strain AK-47 is heavily sought as a medical marijuana strain due to its effectiveness on so many major health conditions. Strain most chemo patients would swear by as it completely handles the Nausea a major side effect of the treatment. Well let's see the strain called AK-47 what exactly does it do?




Significantly reduces the degree pain most sufferers endure daily by a large percent if not entirely.



An excellent mood regulator powerful inductive effects forcing relaxation in turn adequately dealing with issues such as Anxiety, Depression, PTSD and Bipolar disorder in the process.



Strongly induces relaxation within in the hour to significantly handle insomnia in most cases, completely.



Almost immediately brings on an appetite in full force after only 3-4 puffs extremely effective for issues related.



Famous as a strain for just how effectively it handle Nausea a major issue with most current major health conditions.






The “One Hit Wonder” at 20% please understand the buds display a spice intertwined with some noticeable skunk twinges. And if you really are focus somewhere relaxed you may even notice a touch of that hard to catch citrus tones that runs in and out each puff. In other words it smokes like it looks like a mini-tree to a tee! I could see it slamming into my psyche as a one-hit wonder and keeping me motivated for the next 2-3 hours possibly. And true to its form it lets you down as easy as it took you up! Nice slow and understandable the AK-47 has that nice come down transition right into “the munchies” where if you can get of the couch you lightly flow into the kitchen.
