Reply to comment by roodeeMental in CBD Was Efficient In Preventing Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain by Defiant_Race_7544

What do you smoke? I have neuropathic pain and had wanted to try it but wasn’t sure what to get and how much. Also since my neuropathic pain is in the throat I’d probably do edibles, but there was a lot of different products and I was confused

You should investigate whole plant oils. There is a product called Rick Simpson oil. You should read about it. It has super high THC so I’ve heard they do a “ not as THC heavy “version. You can also take it as a suppository and it won’t affect your thinking too much. It’s geared to Chemo patients but I’ve heard of it used for severe nerve pain.

If it's made from CBD or CBG flower, too, you get the whole-plant benefits without the THC. I've been using CBG+CBD for neuropathy and they work a treat together.

I live in the UK right now, and edibles are usually just homemade. The problem with them, is they're hard to regulate usage, effects take a while, and they can hit kinda hard all at once.

I smoke sativas because they're generally higher in THC, and I find it dampens the nerve problem very quickly. It seems degenerative this condition, if that's the right word, or progressive. After over a decade of usage for this condition, I've found personally 4 small paper spliffs (I mix lightly with tobacco), 2 in the morning and 2 at night is the minimum to keep me good - about 0.5g a day, even with progressive effects of this condition, dosage has remained fairly constant. May I ask what the condition is? THC is great for general neural on the brain, whereas CBD is better locally in my understanding

I don’t think the exact condition is known - I can buy things legally here online, so perhaps something I will try

It's still a very unknown area. I wish you the best of luck!

If you don't want to smoke, there's always THC vape pens and oils. Experiment, it may change your life
