This is interesting. So I’m not a huge fan of the pot high. I didn’t realize you could get weed that had more CBD than THC. So you just ask them at the dispensary for that?

Good evening @stephdoug123, @luann262 Thank you for responding to the posts about the benefit of medical cannabis. I can't support the smoking option, I find that tinctures work quite well and give you the option of changing the dosages based upon your need for pain control.

I use a 1:1 CBD/THC for the get-up and get going call in the morning. The afternoon can be a 1:3 CBD/THC if it has been one of those kinds of days. And I find comfort in a 2:1 CBD/THC tincture at bedtime. You can also change the quantity or frequency if required, e.g. a full dropper might be too much or too little for your need. The challenge is that you are your own prescriber and monitor for evaluating the performance of the marijuana dose.

May you be healthy and whole.

Yes_ my dispesary has a web site so you can fill a cart ahead of time and go pick it up. They do have very high CBD ratios that you will not feel high from. I use those during the day as needed. a bit more of a blend at night. Reklieves anxiety as well . Good luck!

Most dispensaries have websites which permit you to view what they offer. You should be able to find what you need before you get there. Considering your own wellbeing you don't want to be standing at the counter for an extended period causing yourself more pain. And you don't want to be overwhelmed by what you see in front of you. Shopping from home is the way to go and ensures you don't waste your time traveling and not being able to obtain what you need. I'm in PA.and I have three dispensaries within 20 minutes of my home.
