Default Rethinking this one
Recently had severe reaction to flu shot.

Hmmmm................not too sure about trying this out, after this latest episode with MG.

Not even medicinal MJ - which supposedly is quite controlled.

Bummer...............

Vaporizers are supposed to be good for several reasons. They allow one to avoid many of the respiratory toxins that are released when the material is burned, and not vaporized. Or so I am told.

Use as tea or with a vaporizer. I have no idea if it does anything other than relieve symptoms, but that's not such a bad thing. I've hear that there is an extract of MJ that doesn't make one high--legal drug, used for nerve pain relief. Does anyone know about this?

Hi David, welcome.

See this thread in the Peripheral Neuropathy forum:

Cannabis. A fork in the road.
