Any information on pain relief of arthritis using marijuana?
Posted By Admin on February 10, 2012
My wife’s doctor told her he cannot help her anymore. For pain relief he prescribed Vicodin. It helps but she would like to use marijuana as a tea and see if it helps. Both of us are non-smokers and have had no experience with marijuana. Any info is appreciated. Thanks
Chosen Answer:
In a Medical Marijuana (MMJ) State your wife needs to ask the Dr. to sign a recommendation form. The Dr. should understand that pharmaceutical pain killers do not allow everyone to have a quality of life. A State that allows MMJ has a form online that she can present to the Dr. After registering as an MMJ patient I would grow the medicine. Search the Internet for Tea recipes ( I’d suggest BudTer and make some cookies). There are co ops and local groups that help patients with home grown medicine. Dispensaries are available in MMJ States for medicine purchases. Ingesting MMJ can take up to 2 hours to reach all the extremities. It does give a more all over body relief but slowly. Using MMJ means experimenting with dose and frequency. Also look at a vaporizer which delivers the instant relief and is not ‘smoking’ detrimental.
