Cannabis gummies are the safest way I believe, and I did share @floridalinda's experience in finding a 1:1 CBD to THC was the right mix ..... But then that "Turpine" blend ran out and I couldn't locate it ever again. But besides cannabis just being difficult in general. I used to take a gummie at night, only to have it not kick in until 6am, and just making life like a " clown car" for me. If pain is severe and by far the prominent symptom, .... Try it. You'll know soon enough if it's worth it. But if you have any addictive personality traits you'll already be well practiced at fooling yourself. And I would avoid it if possible.
For me the aches and pains of PMR are definitely there, but it's the fatigue, weakness, and depression which are the most debilitating. And cannabis for me, at first felt like it addressed that, but ultimately worked against it.
Keeping my muscles supple with basic yoga, getting out in morning light, trying to go to bed early and get up early, .... avoiding sugar,.... besides the Kratom supplement.... These help my pain come less often and for less duration.
I do keep hitting a lower threshold of Prednisone, but so far having to increase it again. But it working itself VERY slowly lower each attempt.
