Paralysed arms & legs getting more frequent.

Must admitted I am being paralysed more often and it’s getting longer by the day, makes me nervous every night I go to bed now and Leaves me thinking when I wake up will my arms or legs be working or how long will it be before they start working again.

Nightmare disorder and never in a million years did I think I would end up like I am, my wife has progressive MS and Spina Bifida and I was going to be the one looking after her instead I have become a burden to her and the stress of all this just makes our conditions worse.

You're not a burden.

This was always my worst issue personally ^ (the paralysis). I had quit using Marijuana to assist in diagnosis (since my PCP said that a specialist would think that was causing my symptoms - we verified it had a major improvement factor on FND - proven with my file history). I don't smoke anymore. I do, however, consume it orally. Since I picked it back up, the paralysis is gone. I quit for one day - ONE DAY - and had this symptom come back up (this was yesterday). Within a few hours, it had me bee boppin around my house again, able to clean up and take care of the kids and hang out with my husband. As he pointed out to me, if I'm taking it as medicine, it should be taken every day (how you would take anything else). Makes sense to me. I have been able to function since, seizure free.

Hi

I have tried it orally but unfortunately it didn’t help with my symptoms.

Also make sure you're consuming the correct amount. It takes some more than others.
