Has anyone anything to comment on regarding medical marijuana?

I am married to a man with peripheral neuropathy (ideopathic). We are so tired of getting our hopes up and then CRASH, they fall down. Have tried so many treatments for neuropathy. I asked our pain doc about medical marijuana, he said, in essence, "sure, you can try it." When I asked if his dad had PN, would he suggest MM? He said "no, because of the side effects that have been reported."
We will pursue this, after we gather lots of information. Anyone have experience in this area?

I used the salve at first, it worked great on my pain but quit after some time. Then I started the gummies. Some days I can tolerate the pain, others I need the gummies. I just take a small bite and it gives me total relief. I just bought some magnesium lotion I’ve used once. It provided some relief but not as good as the gummies.

Are the gummies still working for you? I so wish we could find relief for my husband's PN.
We are thinking of trying Med. Marijuana.

Yes, they are still working for me. We can get these in MN, WI and MI. I also get ads all the time for online ordering. I also get ads on Brez, a THC beverage. I am definitely going to try that. My neurologist is happy I found something to relieve the pain. Gabapentin did not work for me. I’m happy I’m not on any prescriptions. Let me know if you have any questions. I really hope you find something to relieve the pain. It makes you miserable…
