Summary
Dune 33567 dated their illness to elementary school, linking it to EDS, and described lifelong heaviness, chronic pain and being practically housebound, leaving home once or twice a month. They used cannabis from medical dispensaries, favouring the hybrid Blue Dream, which they said eased pain, helped sleep and made errands bearable.

I was scared to use Indicas but I find that they help the pain and I feel better ... if I was on an island and had to pick a strain for the rest of my life, it would be Blue Dream
