How to stop a Chiari Headache dead!

Firstly, I know some may take offense to this post. So up front let me say I pondered this treatment for a few years before finally trying it. It took that 9th doctor recommending I try this treatment before I finally did so.

That said I am not promoting this for anyone. Simply feel it would be wrong to know the relief is out there and not share it with those who possibly could need or benefit from its use.

I live in a legal mmj state and do have the proper legal documents for my home state.

Ok, if you are still with me. Here is a brief story to explain the title of this post. I have been using mmj legally for nearly 9 months now. I started using it for back and neck pains and to help prevent cancer from returning. However, I had discussed chiari headaches with my doctor prior. So here is what happened:

Last Tuesday night I was sitting in my recliner having an increasing severity panic attack. Before you say it -no this had nothing to do with the mmj. In fact I hadn't even had any for a few days prior. I was able to calm that slightly just by talking though it this time. However, I no sooner felt like I was ok than the worst sub-cranial headache of my life hit. It hit like I've never had one hit before. Just out of the blue I think spaceship slammed into the back of my head. I'm not a complainer by any means. Most times when things happen no one around me knows because it has been life for so long I'm normally able to hide the symptoms. NOT this time! This headache had me literally in tears.

My wife fortunately was thinking. While I passed out on the bathroom floor from the pain she got ahold of our son. He came over and helped me get a dose of the correct strain of MMJ. Now most of you can attest to a chiari headache lasting for days on end. I've never had one that was not for several days if not weeks. Well this one, the worst of my entire life, was gone in literally 30 mins! I still had to deal with the soreness that comes after most of my headaches. But the intense indescribably pain that comes with a chiari headache was literally, completely gone in 30 mins time.

Again I'm not posting this to encourage the use. Just hoping that at least one person will benefit in some way. And again we are not talking about abusing the medicine
