Are the other forms of taking it supposed to be as powerful as smoking? It was my understanding that smoking gets into your system the fastest and most powerfully.11 states now with recreational weed. If your wife ever visits any, she should give it a try. As close as Illinois in a couple weeks. THC pills, candies, drinks, lotions, tinctures, inhalers, etc. Don't have to smoke it.
Edibles are the real deal depending on how strong the edible was. I’ve been way more screwed up on an edible than just smoking. If it didn’t help your pain I doubt smoking would. Some people lack the enzyme in their stomach to break down the THC, my girlfriend being one, but if you felt it and it still didn’t help your pain I doubt plain MJ will do it for you.Are the other forms of taking it supposed to be as powerful as smoking?

Had a brownie, felt the psychological impact but it didnt do jack for my pain.
Probably because the destruction and deterioration of the fabric of our country from drugs.Ok, people who claim to be modern conservatives. But the war on drugs has been a favorite of the right for decades

And last thing. To the people who talk crap about stoners claiming it’s a miracle plant that cures cancer. There are some medicinal aspects of CBD, but those people who claim It’s a cure all plant are ”liberal” idiots who have probably never smoked in their life. All my smoking buddies agree it’s harmful, you’re freaking smoking it. Your lungs are meant for one thing. Inhaling oxygen, if you’re doing anything else than that it can’t be good. One thing I will say though is it’s better than any pharmaceutical pain drug you can get. I’ve never seen MJ destroy a life, and I’ve been around it my whole life, but I’ve definitely seen pain killers destroy a couple lives.
Yea that’s why I said there are medicinal aspects of CBD. I get the anti inflammatory from smoking reg weed all the time. There are people out there who think smoking weed is going to cure cancer and it gives us stoners a bad name. There are also people who think you can’t be a stoner and be a contributing person in society. I disprove that everyday.Not saying it is a cure all but I have been taking CBD via tincture for some chronic pain and it is about as close to a miracle drug as I can imagine. I have had chronic pain in my AC joint for about 10 years, and the pain is no more since I tried CBD. YMMV.
My wife has tried the CDB tincture from a reputable company. She found it provides very little relief. Can anyone give me some information on the products you've had success with. Dosage, potency you purchase. We can take this to private message if you don't want to discuss in public forum. Tia.

Hey Zues1 I cannot send you a private message so I will tell u what worked for me here.
I used TNHomegrown (grown and processed in Bell Buckle, TN), full spectrum CBD oil. It comes in various strengths and sizes, I bought the smallest 250 mg bottle for starters because I did not expect it to work. I took the bottle dropper size, which I think is around 1 mL and the first bottle lasted about 2 weeks IIRC. There is also a company called Rush Farms in Maryville but I have not personally used but the store where I got my CBD has a good opinion of and they carry that product too. You can google TNHomegrown or Rush Farms and get to their websites. I am in a random drug testing program as part of an agreement we have with one of our clients (their employees are subject to RDT and their contractors and consultants are as well, which I think is fair).... and I wanted to use local TN products as these are supposed to be very low in THC.
You may know this but the stuff on Amazon (and other places) is hemp seed oil which is not CBD oil. I stay away from that stuff. I have seen Kroger selling CBD products but have not tried any of those so cannot comment if they work or not.
Hope this helps and best wishes to your wife.
