@seattle579 that is fantastic that you found a formula that works for you. You’re one of the lucky ones and I hope it continues to hold your symptoms down.

I cannot smoke anything due to lung issues but gummies are just as effective for me and last 4 times longer!

I am the same and take oil tincture it is definitely better than smoking it and lasts much longer.

I use THC gummies and they have to say RSO on the front. This is NOT Rick Simpson Oil. Only 2 companies make them, Verano and Encore. I get the Hybrid ones that last longer for CRPS pain I have dealt with for 21 years. It is so much better then all the opioids I was taking and they really help.

Mood.com is a wonderful option for purchasing CBD/TCH legally online. Excellent quality products that reduce my chronic pain significantly. This will be a blessing for anyone seeking relief. Good Luck and God Bless!

I suffer from severe knee pain from spinal stenosis. On most days I can barely walk and need to use a cane or a walker. Finding decent pain relief has been a huge challenge. Using tramadol 50mg once a day or even half of that can provide relief but causes fatigue which I have to begin with. Are there gummies with or without THC that help with pain without making you high? I do NOT want to be high under any circumstances! Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hi, as an RN of twenty years, I’ve tried it for my fibromyalgia and chronic pain. It works. I just don’t care for the way it makes me feel, personally. But everyone is different and I always encourage advocating for yourself and experimenting to figure out what’s gonna work best for you and your pain. Best of luck.
