Arnrob, even though I have had my medical card for close to a year I still am a newbie. I tried edibles but wasn’t clear on the dosage. Topicals really weren’t for me since my pain flares up out of nowhere and only lasts two to ten minutes. I really need something to stave off the pain or something that can take immediate effect. So I tried smoking but didn’t like the altered state feeling. So I ended up using indica cbd capsules but even there I would find myself in an altered state two hours after ingesting. Based on reading Chris’s post I’m going to check out tincture which may be easier to control.
