One was 110mg (I believe) of CBD for my lower back pain and the other was a little stronger at 250 mg. The guy explained to me that it would help me with all of my symptoms (chronic lower back pain, insomnia, and anxiety). But after spending almost $100 on those, they aren't touching me at all. Now while I understand that I have to try different things to find out what works best for me, I also can't afford to keep \"testing\" products out. I don't have much money so I'm hoping i can find something within the first couple tries. Also, maybe I should have mentioned this to the dispensary, but my tolerance to meds in general is very high. I can take 1600 mg of Advil for my back pain before I start to feel the pain relief. So I'm starting to think now that maybe I have to apply that tolerance to marijuana as well? The guy at the dispensary was pretty adamant that I would notice a difference with the vape and that I would be able to sleep better, but honestly, it's not touching me. Any thoughts or recommendations on what I should do?\"\n_____________________\nTolerance is effected by many factors, including individual metabolism and frequency and duration of use. Rather than increasing your dose over time as your tolerance builds, it may be better to lower your tolerance by decreasing the dose and frequency of use.  Similarly, some patients take a \"drug holiday\" for several days or weeks to cleanse themselves of cannabis and \"reset\" their endocannabinoid receptors. \n\nEdibles, because they are longer acting, have to be taken less frequency than inhaled medicine and maintain cannabinoid levels at a more constant levels. This may help prevent the development of tolerance as compared to frequent, high-dose spikes of vaporized cannabis.\n\ndredmunds\n_____________________\nFor long term users, I advise patients to abstain from cannabis use for 48 hours then to resume at about 1/3 the dose they were using and titrate up to the effective dose. It sounds as if your case may be a little different.  I would recommend trying a tincture sublingually. You lose quite a bit of medicine to the atmosphere with inhalation and as Dr Edmunds stated, the effects are short lived. True edibles (cookies, etc) lose quite a bit of medicine to the digestive process and renders the cannabis to be more psychoactive. With tinctures (chocolates and lozenges act more like tincture in that they melt and stay in your mouth longer), the medicine is absorbed through the small capillaries in the oromucosa of the mouth and very little is \"lost\".  The drops are placed under the tongue and should be held there for 60 -90 secs before swallowing. It takes about 20 mins to observe the effects. So you have to titrate your dose by adding a drop or two every 20 mins or so until your pain is relieved - then add up the number of drops you've used and that's your dose for the next time. When used properly, the effect of tinctures can last 5-6 hrs. I would also suggest using a variety that has both THC and CBD. While they are individually good pain relievers, together they synergize each other's pain relieving effects. The CBD will mitigate the psychoactivity of THC. Also... acetaminophen potentiates the pain relieving effects of THC so try taking a dose at the same time you use the cannabis. A 1:1 THC:CBD strains that is particularly good for pain and very mentally relaxing is MediHaze. If too much psychoactivity, try a strain with a 1:2 ratio.\n\ndrfrye\n_____________________\nI'm sorry to hear that you're having a tough time with your back; is the pain causing your insomnia? \n\nHere's the thing; not all pain patients respond to CBD alone. You may need to have a more balanced product with some THC included to get a good response. I've worked with many, many pain patients who only get partial relief from CBD. Patients tend not to need much THC to get a lot of relief; even at lower doses it can make a big difference. I've found that small amounts of THC are especially helpful for nerve pain, so if you have sciatica or shooting pains down your legs, it's certainly worth trying.\n\nIt's important to remember to avoid Sativa sources of THC since it can make anxiety worse.\n\nIf THC during the day isn't an option, you may get relief from a topical. Topicals will not make you feel high, but they work very well for pain. Two of the best that I've tried are made by Daddy Bones, as well as Salvation made by a collective in California called WAMM.\n\nAnother possibility is that even though that vape has 250mg of CBD in it, how much are you getting with each puff? Are you absorbing it efficiently? It could be that the dose you are getting is too small to help you. Also, vaped cannabis usually provides relief for a few hours at a time; you might want to look into capsules or tinctures for longer lasting relief. \n\nThe Capsule Cooperative carries a variety of CBD capsules, but we also offer a 1:1 CBD/THC capsule that's great for pain. Try a week of 10/10 or 20/20 at night, and a 20mg CBD capsule during the day; you might find that upping your CBD dosage and including some THC works a lot better than vaping.\n\nI hear that high doses of NSAIDS aren't touching your pain, but tolerance there doesn't necessarily mean that you have a tolerance to cannabis. CBD works on similar pathways, but there's still enough of a difference that Motrin tolerance shouldn't translate over to CBD tolerance. When you find the right kind of cannabis, you may be pleasantly surprised by how little cannabis you need to make a big difference in your pain.\n\nartemiscrow\n_____________________\nI think the ideas from Dr.'s Frye and Edmunds are excellent as are the thoughts from @artemiscrow.   Since you've already purchased the 2 CBD vape cartridges, I might suggest that you keep both of them and when you've been able to save enough, buy a cartridge that predominantly THC (in low or medium dose) or tincture that is mainly THC.  To take advantage of the en\\tourage effect seen w/ co-administration of diff. cannabinoid combos like CBD and THC together, I would then suggest taking a puff of either CBD vaporizer and within minutes also administer a small dose of THC via vape or tincture so you effectively combine the effect of these two different cannabinoids.  \"Drug Holidays\"/ short term abstaining from med cann is also a good idea periodically imho.  I hope this helps!\n\ndrpark","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10822-markdown","title":"I've been looking for an all CBD edible.

According to the company's reported chemical analysis, one brownie contains 50mg of CBD and 0mg of THC. CBD in general has been shown to be effective in the management of migraine headaches. Usually, the THC levels in CBD products are low enough that psychoactive / intoxicating effects won't be achieved. \n\nKeep in mind that edibles take much longer than inhaled medicine to reach peak concentrations in the blood plasma; you may want to use vaporized medicine at headache onset to prevent and/or blunt worsening symptoms. Always pay attention to the concentration of cannabis you are consuming in an edible and begin with the lowest dose to evaluate your response to the medicine.\n\ndredmunds","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10812-markdown","title":"Is this strain commonly available?

She's taking 1mg of Anastrozole a day. Would there be any kind of reaction between the two? She's also having surgery in a week, should she wait until after the surgery to start taking the cbd oil?\"\n_____________________\nI do not believe there is any interaction between Anastrozole and CBD cannabis. CBD cannabis is cleared through the cytochrome P450 pathway but 85% of anastrozole is eliminated through liver metabolism of the drug and 10% is cleared through the kidneys. \nCBD cannabis can interfere with some blood clotting mechanisms so it might be best to wait until the postoperative time period to start treatment\nThere are so many questions here that we're neither asked nor answered.....\n\nDid your mother receive a second opinion from a completely independent group?\n\nHas she read the book, \"Sex, Lies & Menopause\"? The Wiley Protocol could potentially save her life.\n\nIs she aware of her blood level of vitamin D? Half of all breast-cancer cases are due to vitamin D deficiency. If her blood level of vitamin D remains below 50 ng/ml she may be 93% more likely to experience metastatic disease and if the vitamin D level is still not corrected she is 73% more likely to succumb to breast cancer because of vitamin D deficiency.\n\nHas she been informed that she must stop drinking alcohol because it is a poison to her?\n\nHer insurance probably paid for her to have a BRCA1 and the BRCA2 but those are only two out of at least 17 markers for breast cancer in genetics.\n\nYou did not mention her stage of cancer but that is critically important because if she has DCIS she may experience a better outcome without surgery.\n\nPeople are often embarrassed to cancel surgery or postpone a surgery but if she does not have all the information she maybe making a premature decision. People cancel or postpone surgeries all the time so rest assured that a postponed surgery with more information in order to make a wise decision\nwould likely result in a better outcome.\n\nGood luck, this is a tough situation and Anastrozole has not had the best track record so you really may want to explore more options.

Some of these variables include individual genetics and metabolism, fed state, drug tolerance, and route of administration. \n\nCBD is found most commonly in oil / tincture form and can be taken sublingually or ingested. The sublingual route has a faster onset and may have a duration of 2-4 hours at therapeutic levels. If added to food or beverage / swallowed / ingested the onset is slower (1-2 hours) but the duration of action is longer (6-8 hours).\n\nCBD is often taken for chronic pain, migraine headaches, and prevention of seizures. As CBD products typically have a low THC content, you may not feel any effects from administration other than alleviation of your symptoms. This is beneficial for many patients as they find that they can still be highly functional in terms of cognition while undergoing treatment. While not psychoactive, CBD does have some mild sedative / relaxing effects and may be helpful in patients with anxiety and/or sleep disturbances. \n\nMost patients find that one to two drops or sprays are sufficient for their needs, taken anywhere from every 1- 8 hours.\n\ndredmunds","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10798-markdown","title":"My mom wants to get of of the opioid meds, but she doesn't wan't to replace it with THC","slug":"my-mom-wants-to-get-of-of-the-opioid-meds-but-she-doesnt-want-to-replace-it-with-thc","content":"\"My mom had chronic pain due to nerve damage. She currently uses CBD and is working to stop using opioids. It's not going as well as we hoped it would, but is there something she can use to get off the opioids and not replace it with THC?\"\n_____________________\nActually, in one study, patients were tested and they voted the most effective pain reliever was a \n4:1, CBD : THC oral spray. If a nerve is in the process of dying or if it's being restored, it screams because your body can't call you on the telephone, it has to communicate internally. \nWhat happened to the nerve?\nWhen I started taking super high CBD, low THC tincture regularly, twice daily, I had a nerve reawakening after 30 years of hypersensitivity on the skin and numbness all around from a nerve being severed, but nothing brought it back until I use CBD. The 28 : 1, CBD to THC is not psychoactive but the THC does augment the function of the CBD cannabis.\nIn order to effectively control pain, the pain cycle must be broken with regular medication use otherwise we actually imprint the nerves to keep firing the pain signal and the pain will not stop even though the body may not be experiencing pain. \nCBD cannabis with low THC appears to be safer then all non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.\nMaybe showing your mother the information on our website will be helpful to get her away from opioids and I honor your willingness to help her, be proud of yourself.\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nI highly recommend your mom go to a medical detox. Getting off of pain killers is not easy on your own. I was on pain killers, of 1 kind or another for 16 years. I tried to stop taking them on my own Many times. I'd always end up in the ER because of it. The only way, @ least for me, was a Medical Detox facility. It was the best thing I'd done for myself (& my family!) in 16 years!\n\njanetp\n_____________________\nHello there, \n\nI hope this finds you well! \n\nI'd like to state i'm not a doctor; I own a delivery service in Marin County, California and I'm proud to say I have helped dozen's of people off opiates and onto cannabis - I think that everyone's body is different and it will take some experimenting on how much / which strains / methods you use of cannabis but yes you will most likely be very successful switching / detoxing from opiates and onto cannabis. \n\nI hope this was helpful! \n- Nurit w/ ONA\n\nnurit\n_____________________\nYes, in my experience. Orally and topically CBD has been helpful for all patients. If it does not remove all of the pain it will make the opioids more effective at lower doses.\n\ndrblair\n_____________________\nHello! We believe that one of the greatest potentials for treatment with cannabis is to help patients who are suffering from opiate addiction. Cannabis can help treat chronic pain as well as helping to alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms. Even those individuals who are not addicted but who seek to avoid the use of unnecessary opiates can find treatment alternatives with cannabis.

The fact that your friend reacts to smells and odors makes me wonder if your friend has a predisposition to migraines which will make your friend chemically sensitive and the odors can cause depression. \nAutoimmune disease will also manifest if the person is vitamin D deficient (vitamin D is a hormone, not a vitamin) if the vitamin D deficiency has not been recognized and treated appropriately.\nIt certainly seems worth a try to utilize high CBD/ low THC and correct vitamin D deficiency and your friend maybe well again especially if you also eliminate toxic exposures.\nGood luck, this is a quest worth doing.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10785-markdown","title":"Is CBD effective without THC for ...","slug":"is-cbd-effective-without-thc-for","content":"\"preventing disease or treating it?

When this occurs, TSA’s standard operating procedures require TSOs to report evidence of potential crimes to law enforcement authorities. It is up to the responding law enforcement officer, not our TSOs, to evaluate the circumstances and decide whether to arrest a passenger or confiscate the illegal item.\n\nTSOs must contact a law enforcement officer when marijuana is discovered because (1) possessing marijuana is a crime under Federal law, and (2) TSOs cannot make an independent determination as to whether a passenger’s documentation is sufficient to authorize possession of marijuana under State law. Law enforcement officers must be contacted even if a passenger is carrying a State-issued cannabis card or other documentation indicating that the marijuana is for medical purposes.\"\n\nCouldn't have put it better myself!\n\nryan\n_____________________\nNo, liquid CBD oil for neck spasms related to neck pain from a recent fracture of the 2nd vertebrae of the Cervical spine. 10 weeks out\n\nsee\n_____________________\nTraveling with cannabis products is very dicy. There is no guarantee that you wont get arrested, and or your products confiscated. \n\nIt really depends on: \n1) If you get caught\n2) The agent that catches you.\n\nMy understanding (but this is anecdotal) is that some agents in CA are understanding, if you have things properly labelled, and you have your doctors recommendation with you. I have also heard that the airports are controlled by the FAA, and are therefore federal property and under the control of federal employees, and therefore have no obligation to follow CA law. With regards to France - you have a whole other issue to deal with at that end. So the short answer is that its a bad idea, and you could get arrested.\n\nThat said, if you throw a small quantity of unlabelled tinctures into your cosmetics bag along with everything else, the chances of getting caught and then having these substances analyzed would seem to be exceedingly small. You would have to make your own assessment as to if you want to take that risk.\n\nFinally, I would point out that airport customs agents are trained to pick up on any nervous behavior. So if you are the type of person that might look worried or guilty as you walk through customs with a small quantity of tincture, that might be enough to get you further scrutinized.\n\nFor more reading, here is an article we wrote on the subject: \nhttps://www.hellomd.com/health-wellness/56b29f1b0c46b4000800001b/traveling-with-medical-marijuana\n\nmark\n_____________________\nUnder Prop. 215, patients are entitled to whatever amount of marijuana is necessary for their personal medical use. However, patients can be arrested if they exceed reasonable amounts and they can be cited or fined for exceeding local laws. Under MMRSA, which took effect Jan. 1, 2016, qualified patients can cultivate up to 100 square feet for personal medical use, and primary caregivers with five or fewer patients are allowed up to 500 square feet. Exemption under this section does not prevent a local government from further restricting or banning the cultivation of medical cannabis.\n\nhttp://www.canorml.org/medical-marijuana/patients-guide-to-california-law\nhttp://www.canorml.org/news/A_SUMMARY_OF_THE_MEDICAL_MARIJUANA_REGULATION_AND_SAFETY_ACT\n\nAlthough new laws have allowed whatever is justifiable medically, traditionally the limit has been 8 ounces and we recommend that you do not exceed this without licensing with the state.\n\nryan\n_____________________\nUnfortunately, because the federal government still considers marijuana to be a schedule 1 controlled substance, it is illegal to transport marijuana across state lines, regardless of whether you are a medical marijuana patient, or not.  \n\ndredmunds\n_____________________\nIt is typically only legal to travel privately with medical marijuana, within state lines.  Because the federal government classifies marijuana as a schedule 1 drug, it is not legal to transport cannabis across state lines via national airlines, regardless of whether you are being treated under the recommendation of a doctor or not. \n\nThe exception to this rule is if you are traveling by vehicle through states where marijuana is legal or that recognize your state's medical marijuana recommendation. In states that allow medical marijuana, unless they recognize your state's recommendation, you will be required to obtain a recommendation in your destination state and obtain marijuana there. Otherwise, you could be arrested for illegal drug trafficking or illegal possession.\n\ndredmunds\n_____________________\nI thought CBD oil was legal as it has low THC? You can buy it online. Maybe not fly with it, but order it to go where you're going?\n\njanet\n_____________________\nHi there! You are correct about the CA MMJ part. However, our chews are made with hemp CBD, not cannabis CBD, so they're available for purchase nationwide.\n\njess\n_____________________\nGreat question! I am not a lawyer and this represents my opinion and research only. I always refer to the NORML site as they have great information and it is kept up to date. Here is what they say about possession:\n\nhttp://www.canorml.org/medical-marijuana/patients-guide-to-california-law\n\n\"Under Prop. 215, patients are entitled to whatever amount of marijuana is necessary for their personal medical use. However, patients can be arrested if they exceed reasonable amounts and they can be cited or fined for exceeding local laws.\"\n\nTechnically, law enforcement could say you are carrying too much and arrest you which is why it is important that you carry your medical recommendation with you.  Here is more on this:\n\n\"A landmark State Supreme Court decision, People vs. Mower, holds that patients have the same right to marijuana as to any legally prescribed drug. Under Mower, patients who have been arrested can request dismissal of charges at a pre-trial hearing. If the defendant convinces the court that the prosecution hasn’t established probable cause that it wasn’t for medical purposes, criminal charges are dismissed.\"\n\nSo, the best defense is to have a legal recommendation and to carry it with you. The reality is that law enforcement, unless given cause is unlikely to do anything for possessing a small amount of medical marijuana, unless you are driving under the influence etc. Obviously, on the state level medical marijuana is now legal and has been since 1996!\n\nTo further answer your question, it is ILLEGAL to cross state lines with your medical marijuana. I do not recommend traveling in flight with cannabis as TSA is part of federal jurisdiction, so that is a gray area. Yes, you can drive around in your car with it in your overnight bag.\n\nI hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield\n_____________________\nAbsolutely not! Do not risk this because it breaks so many laws you would regret the action. \nEven if Cannabis is legal in both states, it is not legal on the airline, the airline is federal space and the dogs will pick up on the bud immediately. Do you really want to be the first person that meets with Jeff Sessions about Illegally transporting Cannabis? I don't think so, even for the notoriety it would be a very high-priced visit for you. You would not only lose your cannabis you may lose your right to ever use cannabis again! Just don't risk it, please.\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nYes, provided you do a staycation or vacation in your state because you should think twice before crossing a state line with cannabis and please, do not fly with cannabis. Know the laws in your state concerning cannabis and be aware of the laws regarding cannabis in any state you traverse.\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nUnless it is hemp derived CBD, you can not legally travel with cannabis in any form across state lines or internationally. It is a schedule 1 drug in the US which means it is federally illegal.
