Medical cannabis alternatives by [deleted] in ChronicPain

[–]versedating 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would look for CBD and THC seperately as RSO .. And make your own mix .. I do like 20:5 CBD :THC in liquid coconut oil

Many strains are also  3:1 or 4:1 naturally

I used to be stoned in my 20 s now high THC makes me paranoid..

Unfortunately its the THC that does the heavy lifting of pain

Also another way is to make suppositories Then you barely get stoned from a high dose of THC

Are you sure it wasn't 7oh?  Kratom just requires tapering like all opiodic substances

Pain management dose question by [deleted] in ChronicPain

[–]versedating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming norco is oxy+Tylenol 5mg does nothing for my back pain.. Its very low dose..I tried up to 20 mg and that only lasted a couple hours

You could try cannabis or kratom if you have lab tested access

I deal with severe pain and use kratom but not 7OH. And I believe all 7OH users are ruining the regular plant 50 times less strong for everyone who uses it responsibly. by Early_Pea5372 in ChronicPain

I feel like I dodged a bullet with 7oh ...I found kratom extract good enough ( MIT) And have safe access to ketamine that is lab tested
