CBD And Medical Marijuana For Pain
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

I read an article here in reference to those who have lymphoma having pain daily--I too live with pain daily. It also stated that CBD and medical marijuana as been two of the medicines used for the pain. I do understand that not all states have passed the law for the medical marijuana. And I think it`s sad that some can`t get this relief from such. I am in a state (NC) which sadly has not passed the law,so we can only have CBD oil with the 3% or less of the THC in it. I guess some is better… read more

I Have A Problem With Oversleeping. Lately I've Been Sleeping About 10 Hours A Night, And Today I Slept About 12 Hours, Getting Up At 2 PM!
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

This would be less of a problem if I could get to sleep earlier but I just can't. I don't know if the problem is physical or psychological. I have MCL, diabetes, state 3 kidney failure, and long-term shingles pain, which may be the problem, but I can't be sure. Can anybody help me solve this?

Good Morning Lovelies 💓
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Im curious. Most of you are from The U.S.A. I'm from South-Africa and I believe our medical costs works differently. Does americans have to pay privately for medical costs or does the government cover a pirtion or all?

We in South-Africa are lucky. If you have medical aid (medical insurance) your medical aid covers 90% of the cost in almost all cases. If you dont have medical aid and receive medical treatment from government hospitals and you are working. Also it depends on what you earn, then… read more
