Be mindful that edibles take longer to take effect, often affect differently (so if (IF) you decide to experiment further CBD that route may make sense.

Or trying something else may make better sense.

I really wish it performed better for you. I hope you are not anticipating miracles, though you should certainly should be garnering something better than "oh lovely enhanced nerve pain"

Best of luck with whatever your choice.

Keep your stress as low as you can!

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been using indica dominant ( 70/30 and 80/20). So I'm going to order a sativa next.

I haven't tried edibles, gonna try to make some cookies this weekend. I have been vaping.

Let us know how it goes. Good luck!

I keep using mj even though it magnifies my symotoms because it's supposed to be anti inflammatory. So, I use it hoping its combating some inflammation.
Here's my hopeful theory. The Spots that are the worst on my body ( sooo many) is where the symptoms get magnified the most. So, I think my blood vessels are getting dialated, blood is being brought in and nerves are healing a bit and that's why symotoms are worse while on Mj.

What do u think? I've never heard of mj making things worse...ugh.

I will have to piggyback Surfer00 thoughts about where your mind goes. I smoked daily in college and eventually the laughter was replaced by a feeling of guilt over wasting time. I know that MJ will bring out phycosis if you let your thoughts dwell in the negative. The longer I went, the more I would get "bummed out" about wasting time. Now that I'm in my sixties I have lots of time to waste and those feelings do not seem to be reoccuring. I do not think that I am getting any pain relief. I do think that the new friends and the different conversations add another dimension to an otherwise boring and routine life. If there is no way for you to take your mind off your symptoms while you are"high" I can absolutely see where the whole thing would be a negative experience.
