Anyone Here Use Marijuana Or Any Derivative Of It For Their Pain?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
St. John's, NL

I have zero knowledge or experience with marijuana. Its now legal here and easy to get so I have to say I am more than curious if it can help me. I have chronic back pain with severe muscle spasms and joint pain. I have been off work for 5 months now due to my pain. Does anyone have any advice? What method of using is best? Any strain in particular help? CBD to THC ratios? Does it help anyone here?
Thanks

I've also had great help with marijuana salve. It doesn't make you high and you can put it at key points like knees, hips and shoulders. It does go into the blood stream and takes the pain away all over.

I have been on medical marijuana for about 7 months. It has really helped my all over achiness and the stabbing pains I was getting have stopped. It even lessens my hip pain. I take baked Bros 300 mg syrup. 1/3 teaspoon at night. I have also on bad days taken 1/3 teaspoon every 4 hours like you would an aspirin. It does help the pain a lot. Definitely recommend it.

I think you are a little confused about hemp and CBD. They both come from the hemp plant. The difference is the part of the plant and whether it has THC in it. Here is a link on the internet that explains it.

I’ve been using medicinal marijuana for couple of yrs now for pain. It’s taken place of codiene. I use cbs oil & dry & use daily. On really bad days I will also take a painkiller with no interactions . Highly recommend
