Getting told you have something seriously wrong with your health can be very stressful. I’ve seen too many patients do the wrong thing because they can’t think clearly during this time and/or they don’t have a specific plan. In this episode I’ll show you how you can have a plan in mind on what to do when you got a devastating diagnosis.

In this episode we talk about how you can use medical marijuana safely and effectively. Bio: Dr. Rachna Patel has been practicing in the area of Medical Marijuana for half-a-decade now – since 2012. She step-by-step walks patients through how to use medical marijuana for their specific medical condition without getting high off of it, without getting addicted to it, and without smoking it.

I was with a patient a few days ago that came in for a “specific” diagnosis from another doctor. But after conducting a thorough history and examination, things just didn’t add up.

* Do you ever wake up tired in the morning even after sleeping for 7-8 hours? Feel like hitting the bed after 2 PM? Need 3 cups or more of Starbucks coffee just to make it through the day? If this sounds like you, you need help. Millions of people suffer from some form of fatigue but have idea what to do about it. * Fatigue is a common complaint for patients in my office. It can either be the primary issue or a secondary effect. Many people, especially teenagers and young adults, are turning to artificial energy boosters such as energy drinks or coffee. These, however, have very detrimental effects upon your body (energy drinks). * Some people think that all they need to do is get more sleep, but then they find difficulty trying to fall asleep or stay asleep. So during they day they feel sleepy and at night time they can’t get rest. This becomes very detrimental to your body and mind. * What I am about to recommend will help about 70% of the people suffering from fatigue. (If your fatigue is chronic in nature – the other 30% – you’re going to need something above this, but you can still use this as your base.)
