I use ganj for a variety of reasons- fibromyalgia, restless leg, insomnia, irritable bowel, and to help ease depression. If definately helps ease my overall body pain, it works absolute WONDERS for my irritable bowel, gets me right to sleep, and makes me appreciate things more. I also have chronic headaches; smoking doesn't even seem to touch my headache pain.

Seeing as how most of my pain-based conditions are really helped by the herb, it's weird how the most debilitating part of the pain via headaches isn't even dampered. I used to take a few different medications for my headaches, but nothing seems to help. The only thing that really DOES help is putting pressure on the accupressure point in the bowl of my ear, but only as long as I keep pressure on it.

I'm trying to figure out why my headaches are so resistant to cannabis. It could be that headaches are a more involved physiological process- MRIs show abnormal amounts of vasodilation in my headache physiology, so I think that might be it. I try taking caffiene with a headache, but it irritates my stomach (go figure), and it's not blood sugar related... I don't know. Any thoughts?
