Thanks @johnbishop, I think the presentation was helpful and appeared to include most of my years of experience with medical cannabis. However, I do want to listen to some of it again, especially the impact on SFN.
Sometimes the presentor was a bit difficult to understand especially when discussing the connection with hemp and "flower".
The weather has changed , the humidity is gone, there is a chill in the air, I am able to ger one pair of shoes on not too much pain . Today I am going to have an infusion.
Thank you for posting this. It was not hard to find if one uses the link contained in your comment. I haven't watched the recording yet, so I don't know how useful it will be, but I appreciate your posting this anyway. Also, by going to this video, I have now discovered there is a whole YouTube site with presenations from the National Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy. I didn't even know about the Foundation nor the YouTube videos from this organization. So, thank you very much!
I wish I knew. Some gummy’s are great ~ I think sativa’s make things tense & indica’s loosen things up.
Indica is relaxing. When I have visited Colorado and California I used Indica. It is relaxing and I did not wake up at 2:30 am with nerve pain. It let me sleep through the night. I really wish medical marijuana was legal in Texas and at a reasonable price. They have it so over priced it’s not practical. One bottle of oil not even a month supply was over a 100.00. They tried to charge me 500.00 dollars.
Same in my case, for a year I wear only Adidas slippers, barefoot at home, with socks outdoors around my building, harder and harder to use public transportation, stay at work and endure 9 hours out of home. My feet neuropathy has worsened after cervical spinal cord fusion surgery two months ago, attacks of 10/10 pain happen earlier in a day and last longer, attacks accompanied by sharp anxiety pain in the abdomen and groin area that linger....I'm very desperate, and will be forced to retire soon....fearful to get completely disabled! I'm 59 and wished to enjoy my pension, but this seems will not happen...
I bought the random THC tincture recently, it could be sativa, a party drug....a small dose of 1.25 mg made me very anxious and paranoid, numbed the pain in the feet, but promoted unpleasant tingling badly...very uncomfortable!
Just an update. I recently was in Las Vegas & returned with some very good gummies that just lighten my mood & my neuropathy. However, I believe that I have found the most relief from my Barefoot Footware which has helped my strength & balance incredibly. Along with LDN_low dose naltrexone, for pain plus 100mg of Lyrica daily and regular exercise & PT….I’m 😀Ok!
Hi,
I ware only these - Adidas Adult Adilette Comfort Slides bought on Amazon, barefoot at home, with some medium thickness socks, not too tight, outdoors...I can not ware any inclosed shoes anymore...
Also I noticed, but hard to track, a mixture of benefits and side effects of THC tincture on my foot neuropathy...the current THC makes me anxious and paranoid (1.25 mg dose), so feet stop hurting, but starting tingling unpleasantly, my mind in panicky mode... I switched a THC tincture and will it try it tomorrow morning...
