I thought it was something only children got, but I was wrong
I knew it wasn’t because of the medical marijuana, but a area of me thought it could help with anything that would make me sick… I survived the Covid pandemic without nary a sniffle, and my asthma was under control. I thought some of our immune support was from the medical marijuana. I had been using it for years because of our delirium tremors. It helped to keep them at bay so I could feed myself. I was hoping our lack of immunity was because of the medical marijuana, but I assumed wrong. I had a cold for almost a week and our wheezing was getting so back that I could not speak more than more than three words without losing our breath; The doctor told me I had adult RSV… He said that because of our immune deficiency; I was more susceptible to RSV. I didn’t think I was immune-compromised. He told me I had asthma, but I hadn’t had an asthma attack in almost many years. He said it still showed up on our chest x-ray. I think I have more to learn about immune deficiency and RSV. I thought it was something only children got, but I was wrong. It didn’t matter how much medical marijuana I consumed; it would not stop me from getting RSV, or any other disease that has to do with immunity or lack of immunity. Medical marijuana is stop pain, nausea, and a myriad of other ailments, but it does not stop someone from getting sick. I thought I was so smart not wearing a mask and taking risk, but I wasn’t smart thinking medical marijuana could stop me from getting sick.
