Does Medical marijuana work for chronic pain. Looking for alternatives to Vicodin.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Chronic Pain Support Group.

Is there a particular type of CBD that you use? Or is it just something chewable?

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.

That’s the hard part for me, too. I get some relief but I hate the feeling of being high and not having control.

Good morning @gina54, May I add my heartfelt welcome to connect, Thank you for posting about your cannabis usage. I am glad it helps you deal with chronic pain. Would you entertain and consider giving up the smoking, It is not a delivery without health risks. How about a dropper of the same dosage,
May yiou be safe and protected from inner and outer harm,
Chris

If available in your state the gummies are available instead of smoking. For myself I have to drive across state lines but not to far.
