Acupuncture helped back pain, now returned. Medical marijuana?

Hi! This almost-81-year-old "child of the 60s" is now taking 2 drops of cannabis oil daily. It helps *somewhat* with the pain, but also leaves me dizzy and, given all the other heavy-duty painkiller medications I have yet to let go of, rather drowsy.
Good luck to you!
Yaakov K. In Jerusalem (yes, THAT one!)

@yaaqovk Same generation, but somewhat surprisingly I did not do Pot in my youth. (I did drug detection in the City Morgue - I think that "cured" me of doing drugs)
THe weirdest thing happened - when I was in the awful pain yesterday I was able to get an appointment for PT. The guy did all kinds of twists & stretches diagnostically, and then said that next weel we'll start working on getting rid of the pain. Well, whatever he did, last night I slept pain free and today, so far, I am pretty close to pain free. Hoping it lasts!
