My (most would say) better half suffers with a rare condition called Ehlers Danlos - it is related to collagen in the body. The doc's pescribe her a number a anti-inflammaroties, painkillers and other artificial shit. Stuff that really does impact the mood, energy levels, and general health of the body - throwing chemical composition out of whack....

When she smokes weed, she has no need of the muscle relaxant (amytryptaline), reduced need for pain-killers (Co-diadromol), and even reduced need to anti-inflamatories (celebrex) ..... now that ain't a bad thing!!

I also have ehlers danlos syndrome. I also have Chronic pain syndrome and postural tachycardia which also comes with having the ehlers danlos.I use weed on a daily basis to help with my pain etc I would not be able to function without it. I have 2 children both are just about to be tested but it looks like they also have it.

I hope your girlfriend learns to manage her pain. If she ever feels like a chat sometime that would be cool. I do not know anyone else with EDS maybe we can swap remedies lol
