Does medical marijuana work for chronic pain?

I wonder how long you tried it before giving up? Considering your chronic pain has taken a long time to develop expecting an immediate cure or relief is unrealistic without narcotics. It took me a month before I think I felt any changes and a year to develop my current regime that has me off all break through meds. I’m only using buprenorphine patch, baclofen and turmeric plus CBD and THC.

I only tried twice. I thought it was like a miracle fix like you felt instantly relief from anything. I still have some of that brownie I can throw som frosting on. I understand everything about pain being produced by misfiring brain connection and know scientist can figure where it happens in the brain , so there is no help in the books. i will keep trying to find a combination of exercise and CBD and inflammation helps and suggestions from others . Thanks for helping🙂

Great advice! I have my medical card and use it just about every night. I am currently trying different types to see what works. I was thinking of getting a datebook to cataloge my breakout pain , everyday pain and numbness, what activities and shoes were involved and what strain I tried. Hoping to get the best effect!
Do you have any reccomendations on strains?
I like a 1:1 ration ( CBD: THC ) and 3:1 for after work and then a heavy indica at bedtime. I need the THC to calm the anxiety and distract from the pain. Hoping to reduce the shitload of gabapentin I take.
Thanks! You share some great info!
