You should discuss the issue with your pain management doctor, as many are okay with you trying. Then if it doesn’t help, you can tell them. I tried it, tinctures first. I looked back at my comments to my sister through messaging during that first year, and saw I immediately had a problem with nausea, to the point I thought I had a virus. I didn’t even realize it was the mmj, as the information I was reading everywhere said it relieved nausea!
I eventually figured it out and my marijuana doctor told me it happens to a small minority.
I then tried vaping, and only at bedtime, indica strain for sleep. That did not give me nausea. But I don’t feel it helped me with my spinal and neuropathy pain very much, and I didn’t like the feeling it gave me? The CBD alone does little for me. I did feel the topical helped my arthritis, so I make my own. I use on my hands and elsewhere, shoulders. It doesn’t do much for stronger lumbar pain, for me. I hope this helps, another opinion. The dispensary folks were helpful with choice of products.
