I guess the new ones we got are from mitten extracts. This is a friend of a friend thing so we don’t know where in Michigan. I went to their website but I don’t see how to order online. They do have contact information. I wish you good luck! I get many ads for gummies that can be shipped but I haven’t explored that. I’ve now tried some from WI and CO, they work but they’re giving me hallucinations, even from a tiny bit. Not liking that…

My wife in South Va is taken this meds started the last mth. She has a doctor of her pain in her side and back. That helps part of her. Not 100% of this helping, but it’s part.

10 mg of what specifically? CDB, THC, CBG or other?

wolfie1 | @wolfie1 | Feb 12 12:44pm

The ones Mitten Extract from MI are 20 mg THC and 8 mg CBD per piece. The LA Harvest ones from WI are 20 mg THC per piece, the Wild Canna from CO have 10 mg THC and 5 mg CBD, I have both with and without Indica (for sleep). Let me know if you need anything else. Good luck.

I hope this is on topic, but I recently started waking up at night with extremely numb fingers and hands. It can get painful and I oftentimes have to hang my arm off the bed to improve circulation. I'm prescribed Zoloft 200 mg and Oxtellar 600 mg daily and will have a Pamos drink daily. Those drinks have 5 mg of infused THC and 2 mg of CBD. Could either one of these be causing this pain? If so, I will stop immediately. Please let me know if anyone can help or direct me to the right connection. Thanks!

I had issues with both wrist, burning and numbness. The wrist Doctor did surgery on both wrist 5 years ago, no more pain and numbness. One visit to diagnose the problem, no X-rays , he said “I know what going on” Maybe it’s worth a visit?

Thank you! Do you mind sharing what he said?

I checked the my file, insurance and Dr. bills. Carpal Tunnel Surgery is the only description I have. I would wake up at night around 3 with the numbness and pain. He described it as simple surgery, in and out.
Good luck, Mike

Hi there I am also taking gabapentin 3600 msg daily, may I ask why you want to ween yourself off this med?

artemis1886 | @artemis1886 | 6 days ago

I am allergic to gabapentin. My best friend was having a lot of memory problems. I told her to get off of the gabapentin. She was ever so excited for her memory problems to go away. It is a really bad side effect. She has MS.
