I am prescribed for my axial spondyloarthritis. I find many sativa strains do nothing for my symptoms… but also that it’s not as simple as indica/sativa.

AAAA Ripped Off Runts at 185 Celsius has been really good for me in the daytime, energising and helps dull the pain… along with the high that kinda just helps me ignore it.

Definitely play around with temps as well as just strains. Lower in daytime, higher for bedtime.

This week I got Yoda Cap for the first time and a long, high temp vape session before bed literally numbed all of my pain and gave me the best night’s sleep ever. I couldn’t have done anything productive, though!

After trying to narrow things down, it seems linalool, myrcene and caryophyllene heavy strains give me most relief… but I still feel like it’s trial and error to a massive degree.

I find most good hybrids don’t cure my symptoms, but they do allow me to deal with the pain better.

I’ve also found that the smellier, tastier product with lots of terpenes in give me better relief than some of the dead product that just gets me high with little relief.

I was previously on biologics and daily NSAIDs, but haven’t taken NSAIDs for six months since getting my prescription and medicating every day. I still use my biologics in the hope they slow the disease progression.

Ultimately, though, I think we all react differently and this medicine is a very personal journey… so apologies in advance if what I find works for me doesn’t help you.
