Chris Kenoyer My Own Permanent Chronic Medical Injuries History
Here is the story
of my own permanent medical injuries, ruled "completely inoperable"
by my doctors, resulting in my own Medical Marijuana/Cannabis
Necessity.
I am Chris Kenoyer, a 54-year-old male. I also take
Medical Marijuana
with all my doctors’
documented knowledge. I have been permanently disabled since 1989
with Chronic Pain
Syndrome, from a spinal injury at L5-S1, and I now have seven blown
spinal disks confirmed
by MRI scans, with 3 or 4 more suspected blown disks, pending
MRI confirmation.
I have the deadly
combination of significant diffuse degenerative disk disease, along
with a relatively
small, congenitally stenosed spinal canal. In plain language, it's
squeezing off my spinal cord
between the C3 thru
C7 neck disks. My disease is diffuse, which means there is nothing any of the
doctors or Neuro specialists are able to do medically to help.
I have been
ruled by the doctors "absolutely, completely medically inoperable."
All the doctors could
do was to try to make me as comfortable as possible with highly
addictive pain meds!
I then REFUSED
TO TAKE any more of
their recommended 20 to 30 pills each day. The doctors
wanted me to take even more pills. but I just couldn’t
take any more. Since the collapse of my cervical
disks, I was forced back onto the heavy narcotic
drugs. After 10 years of fighting to stay off them, and
being able to manage my chronic pain with just
my Medical Marijuana, Relaxation
methods, and Music
Therapy, I was forced to be turned into a “Legal Pill Junkie”
by
the doctors’ prescription pain
medications. I was on at one point 30 mg of Dilaudid daily, and 50
mg Fentanyl Patches
I just hated it. I was doing so well the last 23+ years,
managing my chronic pain levels,
staying off the narcotics, and just using a little “God-made
medicine” called Cannabis. When
I have access to my AAA medical-grade Cannabis, I can cut the
damned
narcotic pain meds
down to none. As of 2010, I am taking
NO narcotic pain medications whatsoever.
I suffer from chronic pain, stage II
diabetes, severe degenerative disk disease, severe muscle
spasms that drop me to the floor screaming when they hit me, and
chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD), and the doctors have performed two FAILED
spinal surgeries.
Regretfully, my disease is
"degenerative," so I am only
going to get worse.
My
daily pain level is now at 8-˝ out of 10 on a good day,
and 9+ out of 10 on a bad day. 24/7, 365
days
a year, this is what my pain is like. I now end up spending 80% of every day in bed, when my neck
hurts
after being up and moving around for a few minutes without any support for it, or when I
have been working
on the computers for long
a period of time; 30 minutes now is the maximum for me before I need to
lie down
and give my neck a rest when working on the
computers.
My neck begins to feel like it's on
fire, and then no amount
of pain medication will stop that
burning fire in my neck and arms. "absolutely,
completely medically inoperable," this is my
“best case scenario" on how I will
now be spending every day for the REST OF MY LIFE.
I cannot even remember the last day, That I didn't Hurt! I still have 10 to 15 more years where
I can get even medically worse than I am right now from the severe degenerative
disk disease,
COPD and severe arthritis in both my ankles and feet, as well as severe panic & anxiety attacks at
times.
Thank God for 2 mg Xanax Bars!
I have had two
spinal
operations so far at L5-S1, both of which failed. During the second
laminectomy surgery, the doctor or the bad disk cut through my dural
sac (the lining
surrounding the spine). This brought on aspinal
disease called arachnoiditis, which
produces quite a bit of pain in my
lower back, butt, and legs. There is a great deal of loss in
some mobility in both my legs. And now due to the disease in my neck disks,
and I am losing
strength in my arms and hands as well.
With medical marijuana, I can control it on a long-term
basis. When my chronic pain is BAD!
and the severe
pain and depression kick
in, when I am in extreme pain and the muscles
start spasming, I am flat on the floor screaming in pain for the next
15 to 20 minutes! When
I
smoke a few puffs of medical-grade Cannabis, 3 or 4 at a time usually,
it’s the only time I
am not in pain, and I can
smile! It helps me make my
life worth living by giving me a break
from the pain, muscle spasms and depression for a few hours. There is
not a day that goes
by that for just a few seconds, it doesn’t go through my mind lately
to just end it all, knowing
that this is how I am going to be, or
possibly get even worse medically,
For The Rest Of My Life.
So I Am Not A Criminal!!!
And I Refuse To Hide Anymore And Or Act Like I'm One!
Fortunately, I am now a STATE-RECOGNIZED, LEGAL Medical
Marijuana patient, with my written
recommendation from a licensed state doctor and a state-issued Medical
Marijuana Patient ID card.
I am not a criminal, just a disabled medical patient
dealing with a permanent, chronic illness
as best I can, choosing to do "God’s
Work Online" with the
other sick and
suffering medical
patients and trying to help all of
mankind online, instead of just being a drain on society,
sitting on my butt and collecting my SSI government check of $698
every month. God smiles
down on me every day for the work I do online with the other sick
and/or terminal and
suffering medical patients. I have no doubt at all that God has led
me to do this work online,
helping other sick and/or terminal medical patients for free.
