Have you or someone you love struggled with finding pain management that works?

In the latest episode of our podcast, we sit down with Jeanne Meredith, a remarkable woman who has been through an incredible journey. In 1994, Jeanne was diagnosed with an ependymoma, a type of spinal cord tumor. The surgery to remove the tumor left her unable to walk, and she had to learn how to walk again.

Fast forward to 2008, and Jeanne had another surgery, this time a spinal fusion with plates and hardware. Unfortunately, that was not the end of her troubles. In 2015, she had to have part of the hardware removed due to complications. During this time, Jeanne found herself in "pain management" and was on over 15 pharmaceuticals, including fentanyl patches and oxycontin.

However, in 2018, Jeanne made the decision to try medical cannabis, and it turned out to be the best decision of her life. She's now off all pharmaceuticals and is happier and healthier than ever before.

In this episode, Jeanne shares her experiences of dealing with chronic pain and how she was able to overcome it with the help of medical cannabis. She talks about the stigma surrounding cannabis and how it's changing, as well as the benefits of using cannabis for pain management. Jeanne also shares her thoughts on the importance of advocating for yourself when dealing with chronic pain and navigating the healthcare system.

This is an inspiring conversation that will leave you feeling hopeful and empowered. Join us as we talk to Jeanne about her journey from spinal cancer and chronic pain to a new life filled with health and happiness.
