for checking in on the thread BirdGirl. It's greatly appreciated. It is difficult when something that helps you in so many ways could be making another part of your life harder. As open to the possibility as I am, I do not feel that cannabis is increasing my symptoms. Like I said, after the initial morning sickness... a relaxing smoke is the only thing that pulls me through and stimulates my appetite. However, I have to be extremely careful to not cough, as this sets me back at square one FAST. It is the only medicine that I don't have to swallow in pill or liquid form, so it goes down without aggrevating my stomach. I am slowly beginning to think that much of my stomach problems were caused by the constant changing of prescribed pharmaceuticals over short periods of time when I was a kid. Growing up in the new wave of anti-depressants, anti-anxiety meds, it was not uncommon for me to switch medications 4 times in 6 months. (NOW I know that is dangerous... apparently my doctor skipped that seminar.)

Well, like I said, thanks a lot for checking in on this thread... and I'll keep you posted after I have my next testing. :jointsmile:
