Hello lovelies this is a very interesting podcast with Simpa interviewing a dear friend of mine Clark French.. He has been a guiding light in the cannabis community in the UK in the last ten years. He’s appeared everywhere from parliament to TV and news media such as Sky BBC and other media telling his story and journey as a patient living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) advocating for cannabis.
But we’ve known Clark (Mr Vegan and I) for 6 years in the cannabis community in the UK.
For anyone who is new to this site (hello lovelies thank you for visiting) I have multiple complex health conditions (such as IBS, autoimmune conditions, Critical Illness Polyneuropathy (CIP) Neuropathy 3 prolapsed discs, Reactive Hypoglycemia and Osteoarthritis to name a few) which impact on each other at times making it difficult to ascertain which is causing which problem.
I currently consume cannabis flower primarily for pain. However I have observed several other effects that have been beneficial to my health that are not being currently met by opiates. I have had chronic asthma since childhood and a two time bout of double Pneumonia with severe sepsis shock with PEs occurring in March and May of 2013 left my lungs and heart damaged.
As a result of this I also have a number of chronic conditions complications of the Sepsis et al. I have progressive lung condition and fibrotic changes to my lung function. Cannabis has improved my breathing, my peak flow measurement has improved and it also seems to stop my blood glucose levels from spiking.
This is an in depth conversation between Clark and Simpa. Questions answered such as… What happened to the United Patience Alliance? What are your plans for the future? These and more questions are answered ♥️
