CBD only, for me has really no relief. Edibles that have at least half a THC content (preferably a Indica strain is best for pain or sleep) Edibles have the least amount of risk. ... However the timing of when it takes effect and to what extent, for the same product, for the same
patient can vary widely!
"Vapes" have an almost immediate effect, and can with,.. again at least 50% THC .... Can "take care of pain" . I say that because I believe it "masks" the pain, and while doing so, masks over other things, .... cognitive thinking, emotions, coordination.
And vapes are the easiest to ober-medicate yourself with negative results. And vapes in general have a lot of very serious respiratory issues.
Smoking cannabis is also not a great respiratory activity, and easy to get caught up in the "rituals" of paraphernalia.
I got clean and sober 35+ years ago, but was in enough pain to try Cannabis.... but very soon gave it up for the reasons listed above. I realize many are suffering significantly more than myself. And I would not criticize anyone for searching for something to make it stop.

But PMR makes life complicated enough without adding more. And the support/encouragements my wife and friends give me is a critical to my quality of life, enough I need to stay as present as possible in their company.
I've mentioned in several posts, and until someone asks me to stop, I'll continue to mention the supplement made from a tree leaf in Maylaya provides me quick and consistent relief.
That would be Kratom,. ... it can be purchased from Mitragaia. And the only strain I would recommend is "Super Green Maylay"....
I experience no negative side effects. But I understand everyone responds to supplements differently.
If anyone wants me to share how I use it please contact me.
