@cherry  Remember, there is a MM pill on the market that your doctor can write you a script for. It's been around for a long time. Easy to get from your doctor if you ask; it's written for children as well as adults.

 

Just in case you want to try it and see it how it goes. Hugs. : )

@SahmIam  thank you. I am fine at present but I am old and you never know what might happen. I think this stuff is safer than some of the scrips I have read about. I always try to stay abreast of things

I had to laugh today when I pulled up to the MJ store.  A vending machine filled with chips had been installed — lol.  No Mallomars though.

 

I get a senior discount plus my discount card was punched.  😊

 

I mostly use a tincture of CBD and THC now.  Like @chickenbutt said, it doesn’t eliminate the pain but sort of blurs it, relaxing me enough to sleep well.   I never ever leave the house after using it either.

The tincture version has 10 calories, @cherry, and I don’t get the munchies so it has no affect on my blood sugar.

It comes in capsules. I take 1 four Times a day. No high at all, costs $379 a month. It does not relieve my pain as much as take the edge off. My pain management md said it helps about 50% of the patients who try it.

I hope it comes in a patch. I don't know if I would be able to inhale it very well

@tansy, I am sorry that you are in what sounds like intractable pain. At least this helps somewhat.

@nana59:  DH says no background check or fingerprints (further added "If they did that...I'd be standing in the dispensary by myself"(ha ha).

I think it depends on your state.
