Thank you Chris & you're very welcome & any info that I share I share to give hope to our fellow sufferers of Chronic Pain in all their forms. I share because I have learned living life in chronic pain with all the inflammatory & nerve pain & muscular & joint pain even some who have severe pain issue's of bone on bone pain I shared about my need for a knee replacement surgery, & yes made appt w/till mid January. But prior to that I am getting a RFA in my Thoracic spine. There go my holidays not that I feel so jolly it will be my Mama's 1st Year in Heaven/R.I.P. My Beautiful Mama.

I want to share how I take my Medical Cannabis to treat my Chronic Pain issue's. I'm very happy & it has changed my life & it does not have the side effects like I had when I was taking Opiate pain meds. You see I volunteered to stop & I left my pain mgmt Dr. Who treated me for chronic spinal pain issue's, it was early summer & I was not getting enough releif from taking opiate pain meds Hydromorphone HCL 8mg 3x a day, & Nucynta ER 2X day, tons of stomach antacids, even migraine meds & tons of Ibuprofen 800mg 3-4 pills a day, & lots of muscle relaxers & on top of that it was eating away at my intestines & I was in more pain from 1 thing or another I was miserable.
So I changed my New Pain mgmt Dr & he explained that in order to get better he would put me on low dose Naloxone & Buprenorphine aka Suboxene, they help stop the pain & ppl like us in chronic pain. It helped ALOT. But the Pain mgmt Dr knew that alone wasn't gonna be enough so I was given a script for medical cannabis & I was scared & excited at the same time, you see I do ALOT of different research & gather much information b4 I take anything I'm 54 yrs old & I suffer from ALOT of different issues including severe hot flashes & even certain vitamins. Cause more severe hot flashes that make my nerves shoot thru the roof & add chronic pain perfect mix for an explosion of bad temperament & anger. But that is being dealt with therapy & self learning to breathe properly & diffusing my pain & stressful situations where the shit hits the fan.
I found hope from this wonderful product that comes from nature & it works & I am amazed by how little it takes to help ease my pain. Of course there are day's or nites dat I over do it say I pick up something or walk too much or my arthritis makes my spine hurt soo bad this helps that if u have someone put it on your back for you. I have learned how to use a little cocoa butter & say about 2tablespoonfulls of cocoa butter or Vaseline rub any scent & add 1full dropper of CBD cannabis oil/ & mix well in a glass container ALWAYS a must.close & let sit in refrigerator for about 3hrs & then that container of your personal CBD cannabis can be used to apply on any body part that is giving u severe chronic pain & the cocoa butter or Vaseline will also soften your back have ur Hubby/or wife etc. Rub it in gently leave uncovered so it absorbs abt 15 min or so & then dress u will feel soo much better. I take 1capsule of high THC/&CBD low dose capsule daily in the morning w/tiny piece of cheese or avocado because it binds to the oils in these foods & helps the medicine to go thru your body without bothering my stomach/that's for ppl like me who have no gall bladder/filter for ur body. Yrs ago Dr's had no idea what it did now it's a filter. I thought I share dat for anyone missing their gallbladder. You can take it on empty stomach too just make sure drink lots of water. I will try to explain as best as I can. With medical cannabis there is no 1 size fits all. My dosage is different than my best friends or maybe someone else's. This is because our bodies posses endocanoboid system that is different for every person as are our fingerprints. As with that being said you will have to try this out for yourselves to find the right dosages. So with all the rage on tv & everywhere you look the CBD rage is just not the same stuff unless u like to paint ur car with Hemp CBD, this is not medicine & does little to nothing so do not waste your money on junk. Buy Medical Cannabis from your state's list of dispensaries on your State Health Dept. & you get a license card that you have your pictr. & license in 1 per year.
Then as most ppl I went straight for the CBD liquid thinking this was going to be my best bet. I got news for you ppl no this is not true I took about 2dropers full my head was spinning as I got euphoric effects from it. So I read the directions & tried small tiny doses of 10mg CBD & 5mg dropper of THC I was still dizzy so I decided to try their capsules I explained to the young lady at dispensary how it made me feel & she suggested I try the capsules in a 20:1 ratio high THC 5mg & CBD 0.25mg of cbd per capsule s o the next day I tried this capsule it took 20 min to kick in & I did not get any euphoric feeling or dizzy nothing but pain RELEIF. I was soo happy I gave the dispensary a5😍😍😍😍😍 star's for my delight & joy & RELEIF. It lasts for about 6-8hrs of RELEIF I take 2 capsules of 5mg of THC/CBD mixture.
I buy a bot of 60pcs monthly & pray we end up having insurance cover this medication so nor ppl can benefit from their effects of RELEIF from chronic misery. I hope this helps Any1 who is interested. I do not care for vaping I tried it not to my liking but in a pinch it's the fastest way to take.

Wishing everyone a happy day. Be kind to your bodies & mind. This is part of my pain Relief & it works for me. Maybe it will work for you too. I know a wonderful Friend who suffers from Lyme disease & she takes it too & if it helps her that means we r not the only ones. Best to all. Mimi
