Ep 57: Beryl Higgins: From Cancer to Kratom, a Paramedic's Journey to Pain Relief

Beryl Higgins, a paramedic, knows firsthand the struggles of chronic pain. After a bout with ovarian cancer, she found herself trapped in a cycle of pain medications that left her feeling sluggish and depleted. Desperate for a better solution, Beryl discovered Kratom through online research and began her own journey of experimentation. Finding the right dosage and strain, specifically green Kratom, proved transformative. Smaller doses have provided her with an energy boost while larger ones allow for relaxation and better sleep, freeing her from the grip of constant pain. Beryl's story is a testament to the power of personalized plant-based medicine.

Beyond pain relief, Kratom has also given Beryl a new lease on life, allowing her to enjoy activities she once thought impossible. However, her journey has also involved challenging the stigma and misinformation associated with Kratom, even within the medical community. Beryl's experience underscores the critical need for accurate information and open-mindedness when exploring alternative treatments. Her story is an inspiring example of self-advocacy and the potential of Kratom to provide a pathway to a healthier, more fulfilling life.
