I have been vaping a strain of CBD rich flower which is a 2:1 ratio. It helps however I find that for my more intense migraines, it does not help with the pain. I am interested in trying tinctures as recommended by my MMJ doctor. Since the 2:1 is not strong enough for the really bad pain, is it recommended to get a higher cbd ratio (4:1, 8:1, etc) or a more balanced ratio tincture (1:1)?\"\n_____________________\nI would suggest a more balanced ratio like a 1:1. Many patients sing the praises of the hybrid stain, \"Girl Scout Cookies\" when it comes to pain and inflammation. Make sure the flower or oil is organic. Pesticides will only make your headaches worse. I hope you find some relief. Take care!\n\namberleewvapes","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6700-markdown","title":"I have migraine headaches. What would you recommend?","slug":"i-have-migraine-headaches-what-would-you-recommend","content":"\n_____________________\nCannabis has been used to treat migraines for quite some time. I would start with a CBD rich whole plant cannabis extract in a sublingual tincture format. Experiment with different ratios and strains. Topicals can also be applied directly to the head, and vaporizers can provide immediate relief.\n\nandrewvanmd\n_____________________\nMigraines are treated in 2 ways: Preventing headaches from occurring and aborting headaches when they do occur. \n\nFor preventing headaches (Ignore this portion if your headaches are not frequent enough to require prevention...you can skip to the section on Aborting the headaches that Do occur): \nTHC is probably best known for being the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. CBD, however, is non-psychoactive. In other words, CBD can’t get you high. CBD is fantastic for daytime use in those who wish to be functional and alert without any brain fog. The higher the CBD ratio to THC, the less likely you will have unwanted psychogenic stimulation, but still benefit from the other medicinal actions of the cannabinoids. For migraine, I recommend using pure CBD oil as a preventative daily sublingual tinctures for rapid onset relief of anxiety and chronic pain due to inflammation. This gets absorbed through the blood stream and work just as fast as smoking marijuana. Pure CBD oils have a build up effect. Thus, using them daily will result in improvement after about two weeks.The cannabinoid CBD is immediately calming as well as analgesic, anti-inflammatory and immune modulating. Care By Design 18:1 CBD spray and CBD Kind drops are available in dispensary's and collectives throughout the state. Other popular and widely available high CBD tinctures include RevividCBD, Canna Drops. CBD is also available as a long acting gel cap via Tetralabs.com and as Kindcaps Indica. \n\n\nAborting Headaches: \nWhen migraines DO occur, I recommend a 1:1 CBD/THC as it also provides the benefits of THC (This is a 50-50% mix of CBD and THC). A pure THC substance runs the risk of increased anxiety and paranoia. A 1:1 mix will provide a synergistic effect between CBD and THC (tese compounds work well together to produce a greater effect) and will also create a euphoric effect and help to eliminate an acute pain episode. This can also be found in a tincture form. \n\ndrsara","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6681-markdown","title":"Stadol (butorphanol tartrate) pain Rx","slug":"stadol-butorphanol-tartrate-pain-rx","content":"\"Stadol a prescription Rx was a great migraine/pain killer. It was also described of having the effects of pot. In my pursue of pain relieve I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the makeup pf Stadol and how it would translate into CBD and THC. I have yet to find \"any\" relief for my chronic pain or migraines and getting very frustrated and spending lots of money. I have tried smoking the top 3 strains recommend with a  vaporizer with ceramic, I've tried Vaping (3 different vendors), I've tried tinctures, edibles all without success. I am hoping a doctor or pharmacists might be familiar with Stadol able to point me in a direction. \"\n_____________________\nIf your chronic pain is actually migraines, you are extremely chemically sensitive and there is a whole article in this section on migraines that you should read. Migraines are inherited on an X-chromosome as an MAO-A snp. This means you must get rid of all neurological toxins from your diet. You might want to review this following information:\nPlease, consider eliminating all free glutamate's from your diet since they are neurologically toxic especially to people who have migraines or anxiety issues.\nConsider visiting www.truthinlabeling.org for more information.  \nPlease view: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL4SD5f2toQ\nI recommend that you get on the high-dose CBD, low THC in the tincture and take it regularly while eliminating neurologic toxins from your diet and environment. You are extremely allergic to cigarette smoke so be aware if you are smoking cigarettes you are causing your problems. If you're eating out a lot you are increasing your neurologic toxins. Do you want to be well or do you want to cover up the un-wellness with drugs? I certainly am not accustomed to comparing cannabis with prescription drugs. You don't have a drug deficiency in your body but you very likely do have cannabinoid deficiency and should respond extremely well to CBD.\nThe decision is yours because it is your life and your quality-of-life we're talking about. You could have your genetic chart done two know exactly how to get well but for many people that's just too much effort. If you want to get well, let's continue the dialogue.\nYou can know your genetics and set a program of wellness with Nutrigenomics. \nYou may also want to acquire Dr. Amy Yasko's book from Amazon, \"Feel Good, Nutrigenomics\" to show you why you want to pursue this route. Good luck, we may have lots of lifetimes but this is the one we know right now and it is worth living well.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6675-markdown","title":"Cannabis is not legal for treating migraines in NJ,can vaping legal cbd oil be effective for daily headaches?","slug":"cannabis-is-not-legal-for-treating-migraines-in-nj-can-vaping-legal-cbd-oil-be-effective-for-daily-headaches","content":"\n_____________________\nCannabis effects different people differently so it is really dependent on how you react.\n\nFor myself, I have found a recipe that works for me which is daily dosing of tinctures with a CBD to THC ratio. I live in CA. You can read about my experience here:\n\nhttps://www.hellomd.com/health-wellness/micro-dosing-cannabis-stopped-my-chronic-pain\n\nThere are many hemp based products on the market. They lack THC and other cannabinoids and as a result lack the entourage effect when all the elements come together. For some people this is fine, for others, like myself, you may need more cannabinoids to be effective.\n\nEvoxe Labs carries a high CBD disposable pen with essential oils which you might try.\n\nAlso, be aware of where the hemp is sourced from. You want a high quality product, especially if you are inhaling it!\n\nI hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6673-markdown","title":"Would you recommend this product for arthritis pain or migraines ?","slug":"would-you-recommend-this-product-for-arthritis-pain-or-migraines","content":"\n_____________________\nI have used many topicals and sweet releaf is consistently one of my favorites! From my observations they also have the strongest formula for the price. I always keep one at my desk for wrist pain and find it very effective at reducing my pain and swelling if things flare up. I would highly recommend sweet releaf for your wrist pain. \n\nUn/fortunately, I do not suffer from migraines so I cannot comment on that.\n\nryan\n_____________________\nAbsolutely! Arthritis is a common ailment that many patients use Sweet ReLeaf for. We have also had some feedback regarding migraines. Our topical can alleviate migraine pain by rubbing into temples and other key spots on head and neck.\n\nHere's a testimonial from one of our patients:\n\n\"I apply Sweet ReLeaf to my neck as soon as I feel tension building up that I know will lead to a migraine. It relaxes my neck and shoulder muscles helping me to avoid a migraine. I love Sweet ReLeaf for arthritis and stiffness. I also use it before biking or hiking. And it also worked great on the itching from poison oak. Several of my friends have also tried Sweet Relief and everyone loves this product.\"\n\nella\n_____________________\nMost definitely would recommend it for arthritis pain & here's a tip to help it penetrate deeper: apply it to joints after a bath or shower when your pores are open. I also suggest applying it in the morning to loosen up the stiffness and again later in the day if the pain comes back. Massaging the stiff or sore area also seems to help increase flexibility, especially with wrists or fingers which you can stretch out and bend a bit more once the topical effects loosen up the joints.\n\ndidi\n_____________________\nYES I just can't get it as need which almost 24/7.i suffer from three form of arthritis and don't want to use pain killers anymore after 8 yrs.i stop cold turkey because the right cannabis HELP me how can I get it HELP.\n\njamman\n_____________________\nDoes it have a marijuana smell?

What can I use in the CBD to help?\"\n_____________________\nI am not a doctor but we did start HelloMD due to the success I had treating my migraines with cannabis. So I will give you my insights and advice, but please know that cannabis works differently for everyone and there is no one-size-fits-all.\n\nImitrex is a drug that really was my last resort and had stopped working, for many different reasons. Due to that I began using vicodin to deal with the pain. Cannabis has essentially stopped my migraines.\n\nMy regime consists of 2-3x a day daily dosing of CBD. I love Moxie Meds 4:1 tincture and at a half a dropper it is never psychoactive. I also take a 20:1 CBD tincture one time a day in the morning, a full dropper. I had migraines for 25 years and after 6 months of this I rarely experience one.\n\nWhen I do, I use a high CBD vape oil cartridge called Electra-Tsu by Bloom Farms. This takes the edge off, I do not feel totally altered due to the high CBD but I feel, kind of like I had a glass of wine. Very mild cerebral altercation for me!\n\nCBD sprays, in my experience, will not do much to stop a migraine after they start. They definitely have analgesic and anti inflammatory properties, but I have found only an edible or a vape pen for me can take the pain away. I have found however, that the daily dosing is the only thing in my experience that has stopped them from starting!\n\nYou can read these articles I have written about how I have dealt with chronic pain.

I would recommend either one of our 1:1 ratio CBD:THC bars. CBD will help with pain relief and inflammation while keeping you relaxed and focused on the tasks at hand.

We have received overwhelming support for the new Kiva CBD products, and you're certainly not the first to ask about a CBD terra! While we currently are working on some new, innovative micro dose THC products, we are always aiming to provide what our patients are looking for! In the mean time, I would suggest picking up one of our 1:1 CBD/THC bars. For lower dosing, we have a 60MG dark chocolate espresso bar that has 60MG of THC as well as 60MG of whole plant, cannabis derived CBD. The full size bar comes with 4, 15MG squares. How many terra bites are you taking? An easy way to break down the CBD bar to match your Terra consumption; each square is 3, 5MG servings. The flavor is similar to our terra bite espresso beans, but is smooth, rich dark chocolate. We also have a 120/120MG dark chocolate ginger bar available as well!
