To celebrate 4/20, Swole revealed that medical marijuana has helped her manage the disease.
She wrote on Instagram, “I’ve been getting a lot of questions about how I managed my Crohn’s Disease while wrestling. My Crohn’s is very aggressive so I was referred by my physician to try medical cannabis. For me, this decision was best for my recovery. I honestly believe I wouldn’t have been able to get through this past year w/o it. My pain has nearly subsided, my appetite is revived and my overall happiness has increased. It may not be for you but it’s worth a look!”
Swole has been back in action since March, appearing regularly on AEW Dark and AEW Dark: Elevation.
She is set to team with KiLynn King to take on Ashley & Steff MK on the April 20 episode of AEW Dark. You can view the full lineup for the show by clicking here.
