Medical marijuana for neuropathy

Posted by wilcy @wilcy, Jul 24, 2019

Started vaping with high potential medical marijuana! Have neuropathy in feet and starting in hands! About to be in wheelchair! It doesn’t even relax me! Any suggestions?

Good afternoon @hertz. I think it is good that you have decided to do some digging into medical cannabis as an option. Perhaps your son is genuinely trying to help you. The most reliable medical cannabis products are tinctures. You can determine your dosage method and strength very well with tinctures.

If you hold it under your tongue and let it go through that membrane, you will get relief within 15 minutes that lasts 3-4 hours. If you swallow it or put it in a beverage, it has to go through your digestive system, so that may take 45 minutes and you may not get it all at once so the time frame for pain relief is somewhat unpredictable.

Please be careful, you can always have more, you can never have less. You do not need to have any psychoactive results. There need not be any high. If there was anything I would avoid it is edibles because the dosing is not reliable. It is sort of like eating the cookie dough when your mom wasn't looking...you didn't always get a chocolate chip. Let me know what other information you might need or want. If it is within my experience I will gladly share it with you. Be free of suffering today. Chris

If I go to a state where they have the medical cannabis will I be able to purchase some ?? I do not have a medical card. Can I go into just any store and get it?

only if they sell for recreational use! Otherwise Someone should be able to assist you with a purchase!

Unfortunately No. If they are only Medically then you must have the card!

Has anyone used medical marijuana for the relief of neuropathic pain in legs, feet AMA calves? If so what dose and blend of canaboidoil and THC did you use. Also did you have any side effects from using it.
