Good evening to those of you who are a bit overwhelmed by all the commotion about CBD and THC. My state is just completing the details of a new state law that is opening the door a bit more for those in need of help with pain and discomfort.

In my case, I have been using medical cannabis with CBD and THC for about 10 years. In fact, that is the only pain medication I use for Small Fiber Neuropathy that has been on a progressive "rampage" for quite some time. Adding the two together creates what is called the entourage effect.

In order to handle the ups and downs of pain and discomfort realities for those of us who are challenged by some form of neuropathy.........we need to have several different dosages ready to go for different times during the day and under different conditions. I want to be sure I am using the correct words here......so let me explain. I use a CBD/THC "tincture"....(not necessarily an oil) for overall nerve pain. Then I use a CBD/THC "balm" on my hands and feet for numbness and tingle tangles as well as pain.

You can create your own dosages or buy them in eye dropper bottles. For example, I start the day with a 1:1 CBD/THC in about 1/3 of a dropper. In the evening and at bedtime I use a full dropper of 2:1 CBD/THC dosage which gets me through the night quite well.

For topical applications, I use a 3:1 CBD/THC balm for chronic pain and a 1:3 CBD/THC topical balm for acute pain as in a sudden flare. That pretty well covers my cannabis program options after 10 years of trying to stay on top of product developments and my need for relief from pain.

May you all be safe, protected, and free from inner and outer harm.
Chris

I’m in recovery now but have been long term THC user and now that I’ve quit, my wbc is high and I’m literally in so much pain and suffering that I’m beyond the frustration. I’m learning to what is going on with me so I do believe in the healing and help of THC and CBD products. Unfortunately, I’m on parole, and one year into recovery. I have not used THC since 2019, and my health took a trip for worse. I cannot use Gabapentin for it interferes with my mood stability but I may check out CBDs.
