WhatMS Ep14 - MS&Cannabis

June 27, 2021 20:54 - 50 minutes - 46 MB

Katt and Brandon discuss using cannabis and CBD medicinally for managing multiple sclerosis symptoms. *During the episode I mention a research paper showing cannabis to potentially slow progression of our illness - this I believe has sadly been disproven, however there are papers indicating relief from symptoms vs placebo. I'm going to try and hunt down the original paper I saw - if I do I will link it below :) ------------- Find us on social media - @deadliftsarebae @msandcannabis ...

We discuss and breakdown all of the points in the post, which are still very relevant today. In fact, I feel like I could have written this yesterday with a few word substitutions here and there... Thank you again to anyone listening, and for all the feedback we've recieved so far :) ------------ Find us on social media - @deadliftsare...

WhatMS E12 - The Pebble Analogy

March 07, 2021 16:06 - 59 minutes - 54.5 MB

Sam comes back to help me out with this weeks episode :) We discuss and break down some writing I did 2 years before my official diagnosis of #multiplesclerosis - I'm describing what I was told by countless medical professionals was 'anxiety', when in reality I was describing in clear detail relapses/generally living life with MS. It amazes me still how I was able to put into words what life is like living with our illness, despite #MS not even being on my radar at this point. Thank yo...

At the back end of last year Ollie asked me to help him with his own podcast (which will be linked as soon as it's officially up and running!). We filmed this episode for his podcast as kind of a test run and he's kindly said I could upload the episode to the WhatMS channel also. Its basically just story time, and I kinda cover a bit more in depth what went on in my life over the last couple of years. I also dicuss my time in a rehab facility, and my experiences withdrawing from the drug...
