Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Got lots of catching up to do. It was a busy week at work. Did a project with an old buddy of mine. Charles is super smart and talks as much smack as me so we had everyone cracking up even when we were struggling. At the end of today we had everything going our way as we usually do when we work together. Taxes to be paid tomorrow.

The 21st is last treatment date for the trial. Then surgery will be on 31st. I am not looking forward to the 21st as I got very sick from the large amount of vaccine. Thankfully it was short lived about 24 hrs of feeling icky. I will be glad to get the surgery behind me and to find out whether or not its invaded my lymphatic system or not. The constant worry of the unknown is beginning to weigh on me.

Ive been keeping as busy as possible, out with the chickens a lot , crocheting a lot, and I learned how to make sourdough bread. Distraction is the name of the game at the moment.

Thank you for checking on me 🤗

My daughter Angela asked the most random question today. She wants us to go skydiving together. She is fearless and very tough. She survived 6 months of rehab after scoliosis surgery when she was 14. She is far more brave than I. She once said that I am her rock. In my heart she's my hero. ❤️

Call it what ever you want. It’s made from cannabis and has THC in it. Some claim that it’s safe and not an illicit substance.
Tell that to the US Federal Bureau of Drug s, explosives and Alcohol 👮‍♀️ Administration officials.

CBD can be made from cannabis or from hemp, and you can get this without the cannibis’ THC - but it is more effective as a pain control with the THC (yes my sacrum/hips feel good) from the studies I have read from McMaster U - they have a long term study underway for effective treatment using both CBD and Cannibis.

My issue is being tested and coming up with a positive test with the THC component 🤨 also read up on the interactions of it and my prescription meds for my RLS - seems that what I am applying to he skin is not absorbing hardly any systemically - so thankfully answers both my worries, likely wouldn’t show up on a D&A test and won’t interfere with my pregabalin.

Now taking it orally is a different story! And seeing as how dosages have never been established yet (another thing McMaster U is working on), it is something I am absolutely not interested in.

And while my arthritis is oven some relief it has some diddly squat for my RLS - of course I didn’t think it would help that being a neurological issue. Now if it did help that I would be happy to imbibe!

Not to worry Alex I am not planning any trips to the US with it! Though I do wonder at why I can go across with my script for Tylenol 2 and yet if one has a medical script of cannibis that is not permitted. From what I know codien of far more addictive than pot … ? My
One big issue with THC is how it’s stored in body fat especially in the brain which is all fats.

I want to read any reports McM U has on elderly and the use of THC products and cognitive function. Quite fascinating how the different components are available in cannibis, they have really only just scratched the surface with its elements. I see there is also a Nature of Things episode about it I will watch.

Oh the trials and tribulations of finding a med for treatments - I told my mum medicine/doctors were not Gods - they can try to help but many times it’s just a bandaid helping with a condition. There are no miracle cures out there. Meanwhile I am taking a course of Iron to see if it aids with my RLS, likely I will need an IV solution for the iron to be used as one’s intestines regulate the intake of iron, and whatever is not absorbed is eliminated - expensive poop 😁.
