I'm in the uk and it's still illegal to use it here, I've read so much online on how much it has helped people with chronic migraines with pain relief. Whilst I'm taking so many legal prescription drugs with horrendous possible side effects that are giving me no relief. But there's a natural plant 🌱 that can give me pain relief that's illegal.....madness xx

The problem with smoking cannabis is the coughing lol maybe I'm just an amateur but I cough so hard that my throat hurts badly and it causes the pressure in my head more painful when I cough. After all that calms though I just feel relaxed and forget about the migraine. Doesn't work 100% though. It's quite a turn off because of the coughing. Especially if your already nauseous.

It makes my migraines worse too. That was $400 wasted. But we have to keep trying new things. Something has to work eventually.

I tend to find with the cefaly device that it does make pressure migraines worse.
