Hi. I only use tinctures that are 1:1 CBD:THC. I only use them at home for pain and/or sleep, and wouldn’t drive for at least 10 hours. But there’s less of a hangover than with traditional sleep medications. I was using 100mg for each, but now can only find 50:50 (for about the same price). The first one came in oil, but now they’re water-based and supposedly taste better. (I haven’t tried them yet). They do have expiration dates on them, but I have used the oil ones for longer than the date.

Thanks for sharing this! I am currently only using CBD as I have an appointment with a pain management doctor coming up. I was concerned that he would see from a urinalysis that I had THC in my system and refuse to treat me.
It’s always good to take a break as tolerance builds and more is needed for the same effect for pain relief. It takes a while to leave your body, according to Mayo Clinic Proceedings, it can take up to 30 days for a negative urine test for chronic users (multiple times daily), less for those who use it occasionally, or moderately. Hair testing can detect THC for up to 90 days!
My pain has been less severe the past week or so, thankfully, and now I have to reschedule my doctor appointment as we are in another state waiting for a grandchild to be born and he’s late!
