    Is there a way to access MAID and become a citizen and eligible for healthcare? I’m just over the border… The DIY options in the states would be traumatizing to my family vs medically assisted euthanasia. I really would like to begin the process for it.

    I started using M MJ in 2020, I quit for 4 months this christmas. Just to see how I did without it. I just started rso again a few days ago. I was just unable to sleep for more than a few hrs before my back woke me up. Got a decent nights sleep for the first time in months. A small bit of rso with dinner was all it took. I have severe stenosis and some nerve problems in my back, the MJ helps smooth it all out enough for me to be able to relax at night. I eat a bit of rso morning and night. It doesn't 100% kill the pain but it makes it much easier to handle.

    I have spinal stenosis and I work as a mechanic. After trying medical THC my pain is nearly gone. I had an MRI done before. I haven't stopped working for more than a week. It would be interesting to continue with MRIs and THC use. If any MDs need someone with clean before/after use let. Me know.

    Long Covid sequelae just doesn’t fit the more typical belief that if you just IGNORE your symptoms they will go away. Pushing through only serves to deplete one’s reserves even further. Is this not related to the documented effects on the mitochondria? The organelle responsible for converting oxygen into ATP-ADP Krebs cycle impacts pan cellularly? The organ most sensitive to chronic hypoxia due to micro-emboli? Of course the brain. So any increase in demand for oxygen results in lack of ATP-ADP Krebs cycle impacts? Just speculating here but it fits. Without the ability to convert oxygen cellularly within the cells by the conversion to useable energy the cells starve? Or aren’t able to maintain a steady state?

    Please keep fighting to open MAiD to those of us enduring chronic pain and associated mental illness (due to chronic pain and lack of social support). The govt shouldn’t determine how much pain suffering each citizen/resident should endure. It’s genuinely gruesome to leave us to seek unsupported avenues.

    Advanced directives are needed!! My doctors may remove my narcotic pain control thus I will be thrown into 9/10 10/10 pain due to narcotic “stigma”. I am a cancer victim, my pain is cancer related caused by an oncologist who heavily radiated me. You wont approve my death since cancer is remission and my narcotics are currently controlling my electrocutions. I probably can’t even get MAID before the narcotics are denied and before the pain goes out of control.once out of control you would deem me not sound of mind. We need ADVANCED DIRECTIVES!!

    I have a horrible amount of damage inside my skull. I got cancer of lacrimal gland it’s the tear duct. I wanted it removed. They insisted biopsy not removal. Neurologist told me “radiation is perfectly safe” IT IS NOT!! I am blind from radiation, all my teeth were melted (wow teeth survive thousand years in the grave )into putty and all removed, after 5 surgeries it was found my trigeminal ganglion inside the skull was found melted blob like a fire in a house fuse panel. I am electrocuted hundreds of times a day. A neurologist took 3 years to get me stable at a 3/10 quality of life on narcotics which is great! Narcotics were made for severe nerve damage. My GP took over after neurologist retired. My doses never changed. Hen GP retiring I was applying to literally a thousand clinics from Niagara to Windsor everywhere in between. I am treated like a criminal or drug addict for needing narcotics. A friend found a nurse practitioner and she is 8 hours up north Timmons area. So being forced to sell our paid in full home to keep my pain under control. I have done nothing wrong. All I needed was a doctor to write the 3 meds monthly repeat repeat… been STABLE. College of Physicians Surgeons states no prejudice where narcotics are used. No narcotic blanket policies also not acceptable. CPSO told me any doctor can depart from first come first serve can take my urgent need. Healthcare connect wait is about 7 to 10 YEARS!! My need for narcotics has nothing to do with the idiots using illicit drugs on the street. The government should have stopped drug cartels importing illegal drugs into the country. The patients being denied care and their pain relief is so wrong!! If this Nurse Practitioner messes up my STABLE pain control it will go out of control up to 7 to 10/10. 10/10 pain a patient “needs” to die!! But in my case by the time pain goes 8/10 and up I will no longer be able to speak for myself I will be rocking screaming crying and begging to die. I of course prefer to live out my years with pain control. Narcotics are not evil or bad they are an excellent tool to help extreme pain. CDC is trying with a 2022 update to stop or reverse the doctors denying pain relief. An oncologist did this to me he destroyed my life. The last 12 years have been nerve blocks surgeries and agony trying to get pain under control. We got control. Now after being forced to move 800 km north sell our home I may be forced to die. I wish M.A.I.D. Had pre approval set up like in my case if meds are removed. Even power of attorney might not get me an assisted death. Doctors who deny my pain meds will have sentenced me to death!! My pain is like taser stuck to my head, like an electric chair execution failure. I even pray to die in my sleep. This anxiety of being denied pain control is ruining enjoying my 3/10 quality of life. Doctors What happened to do no harm?? I am not even considered a senior. I lost my 40s to cancer and pain out of control, I lost my 50s to needles, surgeries and try this try that drugs…finally got pain under control. I want my 60s and 70s. Ontario healthcare is broken, ruthless, disgusting. I am not voluntarily going to participle in narcotic reduction. I am writing my life story called “Do no harm”. One doctor could have saved my life, my home my retirement. I am in no way to blame for street drugs. Such horrible prejudice. Narcotics are powerful and life saving used properly. I won’t be able to jump through the hoops of interviews and process time being electrocuted hundreds of times a day.I will be forced into suicide even though I don’t want to die. I am not depressed. MAID needs pre approval in event of ……!!

    I do relate even tho my chronic pain that began in '86 is not near the severity of yours. I would like to say God Bless you but I don't wish to offer offense to you in any way. I was assaulted in 2009,had L5S1 fused after being forced to accept spinal injections that touched a nerve and has left me suffering. Getting such ridicule from several connected " specialists" because I was taking prescribed by primary care opiots while searching for a surgeon to help me, I have given up. I got off Opana and Percocet for Suboxone and live in pain that I can bear but life is as you say 2/10 I'm tired of it and now have been so easily injured and gone to ER twice and primary I know what they have planned for me and will not take it. I was stabbed in the kidney back in '80 and should have died where I was left to. I have lived a life I wasn't supposed to and accept it is over. I don't wish to live in pain just to make it through until my next appointment. I must stop this post now because the pain says NOW !

    I suffered 2 work related accidents which left me with 3 herniated discs in my neck and 2 blown rotators and I had to go to medical cannabis for treatment of 7 types of chronic pain and I vape the medical cannabis and I go for around 20 to 25 % thc and between 2 -14 % CBD works for me . But everyone is different in what they need for the pain . I also make my own edibles which contains between 50 - 100mg of thc . I went with medical cannabis because I didn't want to go with opioid painkillers. I'm up to 5 grams of cannabis a day and I now feel little to no pain and I take no pills to help , it's all the medical cannabis. Since the cannabis it's like night and day , when I don't medicate to when I do . If I go more then 4 hours without vaping I will start to have a resurgence of my chronic pain symptoms. My prescription is vape or smoke a joint every 3 hours or as needed not to exceed 5 grams a day .

    God, this was depressing. As a person trying CBD, it just gave me no hope. I have tried vaping CBD, but it seemed to depress me. Definite pain reduction. And better sleep. I am now about to try a cream instead as the eliquid feels harsh to vape. I found the scientific report especially disheartening. I wish I hadn't watched. I wondered how beneficial to Big Pharma it was to 'show' that CBD is pretty useless.....science has been corrupted by funding.

The Flippin Series are very much in line with the arguments in this webinar. Maybe the the only thing lacking in the Flippin Series is a broader focus on emotions as a possible reason to develop pain (they talk about anxiety and fear, but not about shame, grief and sadness e.g)

    I am 36 years old male long hauler, and i am ill over a year. I am living hell. And it isn't about the respiratory system. Before covid i had gi issues like ibs flatulence etc.. but i could live with them. After covid it is like my GI problems started to have their own neurological problems. Involuntarily swallowing (!) started. My tongue and jaw started to loosen. It is unseen. I felt like there was a tremor and tension through my throat-esophagus track. After losing 15 pounds, 3-4 weeks later i got little better and gained my appetite, but then i spit light red blood with stomachache and throatache. I did endoscopy immediately but they didn't find anything. Then everything got worse. I lost my appetite for good over a year. I am experiencing a worsening throatache that no ENT professors can detect with camera. I have examined by over 60 professors. Gastroenterologists, ENT Professors, Neurologists etc.. i did blood tests, endoscopies, colonoscopy, CTs, MRs even EMGs. Throat pain is killing me. Loss of appetite, fatigue.. these are also challenging. I have other symptoms but i dont know how can i bare this throat pain. Gabapentine isn't working. Diclofenac isn't working. Tramadol isn't working. Gargling with morphine is also uneffective. They can not tell any reason other than long covid. Because there are some neurological signs like tongue tremor while i drink something or slightly push my upper teeth to my tongue. But my biggest problems are unexplained and unbeareble throat pain, loss of appetite and moderate fatigue. I am planning to do SGB. What do you think? Can SGB be solution for undetected throat pain? Or do you recommend anything else like middle cervical ganglion block etc.?

    You’re absolutely correct. GP’s and specialists are gas lighting people in acute pain. They no longer examine patients correctly and they also misrepresent the truth about a chronic pain patient’s issues. Iatrogenic injuries are very common. There are many post operative injuries that occur and doctors tend to cover this up. It’s easier for doctors to say someone has a mental health problem than to admit mesh or metal clips have eroded and migrated and are causing chronic pain. I was poly drugged for years with no pain control for my severe nerve compression pain. I needed properly done fluoroscopy guided nerve blocks to prove which nerve was in trouble and decompression surgery. No one in Canada could do the surgery at the time. I needed to go to the US for surgery and BC doctors would not help me. I hired a registered nurse consultant to advocate for me while on death’s door. I had my nerve decompressed 3.5 years too late. It was a severe case. Why was I misdiagnosed with vulvodynia? It was because I was gas lighted by all the doctors I saw. I never filled out Pain Clinic Intake forms when I met my Pain Specialist. Why not? I had no voice. My right to honourable care was not a consideration. The doctors made up everything. This is fraud.
