Pain relief advice needed please

by little drummerboy

Pain relief advice needed please

Good evening all, I need some advice from you lovely lot. Tonight marks the first time in which I had an open and frank conversation with my (approaching 80 year old) parents about the medicinal benefits of marijuana.

My mum suffers a lot with pain and also mental health because of the pain. She is up for seeing if any of the wonderful products on here can help. She has hardly ever drunk, has never taken drugs or smoked, so it would need to be a 'mild' experience (certainly initially) but strong enough for her to gauge whether it helps or not.

What do you think? Edibles? Oil? What dosage? Any recommended strains that particularly help with pain relief?

Many thanks my friends!

Personally, I would work with a 2:1 or 1:1 CBD:THC ratio. This should offset the psychoactive effects somewhat and provide a calmer and more holistic experience. Obviously, tiny doses and work up (goes without saying). Start at 2mg and work up to 5mg... then 15mg... etc etc...

An initial THC experience can be overwhelming for a newbie, especially someone older. Edibles would be the way... carefully dosed cookies or something healthier and non "druggie" in application. I also have older parents, so I get where you are coming from.

Many thanks greencigar, I was planning on splitting a 10mg gummy in 3 so the folks and I can 'go in together'. Perhaps I should start them off with a quarter? I need to remember their margin of tolerance will not be as wide as mine!

greencigar

Low and slow, my man. I wish you all the very best. I would like to add that I have zero medical experience, and have been labelled 'crazy' by some people at points in my life. However, they weren't shrinks, so there's your margin of error. HAHA :)

If you do decide to go with RSO or Edibles or RSO infused edibles… make sure to let them try a LOW dosage and before bed time as apposed to when they are fully awake.

Not a doctor!!! But I think that it’s important at least till they build up a little tolerance, also I have said it before here and will mention again, Tumeric curcumin supplements seem to work well for body pain (my shoulder for instance) and for blood circulation.

Wonderful advice, thanks!

This is very interesting. I take a range of LB products for pleasure and pain but was talking to a good friend just a few days ago about his elderly father (83) who he would love to find pain relief for because pharma is failing him.
He’s never smoked and with old lungs I’m reluctant to suggest even vaping. Edibles can be a strong high for the uninitiated which could disorientate. RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) has many qualities and can just be stirred into a hot drink, but it’s a strong pure extract so go with very small quantities at first and build up. It’s a great choice.
I’ve just ordered some Lebanese Hash Oil Cannacaps from Hashishin (a VERY reputable LB vendor) with each capsule just 10mg and offering a super mellow experience. The degree to which these ease my pain I can only let you know when I review.
Just my opinion, but good luck! 🤞😘

little drummerboy

Ah thanks so much for that, I think oil is the way to go. I'll check them out!

I also agree with the comments about CBD as a starting point because you won’t have to worry about them getting even mildly high and not being comfortable with the sensation. For me CBD doesn’t work as a pain reliever but experiences vary and you can slowly introduce THC if necessary as described here….

little drummerboy

Yeah I suggested that to them as a good starting point to try after reading this thread, thanks again!

Sorry to hear of your folks suffering. I assume you would smoke yourself as your on lb-your own tolerance or tester would be a good start for strength levels/psychoactive effect.
One of the main vendors I use on here is hashishin who is wonderful to deal with and seems well educated on everything cannabis related and engages well with his customers.His hash strains are traditional/land race strains which I would describe as mild/moderate in strength- less THC than modern drysift hash methods but equally enjoyable.My only experience with pain is toothache (I remember his Lebanese hash helping with this at the time(shouldn't smoke with toothache)-numbed the pain;relaxed muscles but still clear headed.good for enhancing mood-with mental health it's important not too smoke something too strong on the psychoactive side or it could induce paranoia or anxiety.Something sativa would be uplifting during the day and something indica would help with sleep.His capsules at the moment look interesting-the Lebanese canna caps for example-it sounds like the mildest experience before edibles or oils etc(would be better start without smoking if possible)-a lot of great vendors even commenting below on dosage amounts.Good luck and hope it helps.

little drummerboy

Many thanks for the advice Thadogglb!

I'd recommend using an RSO (rick simpson oil) as it's generally much more 'medicinal' than 'party time'.

As far as dose goes, start low and find the sweet spot. Possibly a grain of rice amount...

little drummerboy

Thanks, I'll take a look!

Cannabis tea brewed perfectly, I couldn’t recommend this enough!

little drummerboy

Thanks, any tips on the brewing process?

MKK2020 9.6/10

Simple marijuana tea can be made in any flavor you wish, by adding another tea bag during the last three minutes of simmering. This recipe makes two cups of tea; for one cup, simply halve all ingredients.
Ingredients
1 gram of dried cannabis flowers
1 teaspoon of butter
3 cups water
Sweetener of choice (brown sugar, honey, maple syrup, or stevia all work well)
Instructions
Grind the cannabis flowers. This can be done using a regular grinder, a mortar and pestle, or a knife. Be sure not to grind too finely. Final form should be the same consistency as when rolling a joint; avoid powdering the buds.
In a bowl, combine the weed with the butter, ensuring the plant matter receives an even coating.
Pack weed mixture into a steeping vessel. This can be a metal tea ball, or an emptied-out tea bag.
Place steeping vessel into simmering water. Ensure the water does not come to a boil. Simmer for around 30 minutes.
Remove from heat and pour into cups.
Stir chosen sweetener, and enjoy!

Indica type will help

little drummerboy

Thanks Nam, yeah I was leaning towards an Indica, I think a Sativa would be a little too 'buzzy' for her...

Nam

Or cbd weed without feeling high only to treat for the pain relief

Rikform

I would also suggest cbd possibly adding tiny amounts of thc in the process to help activate the cbd in terms of pain relief but for some cbd alone can be enough.

little drummerboy

Thanks Rikform, after all of your advice I'm gonna do just that!

New postage Needs for our Medicines

Dear LB,

It’s been a tough couple of weeks for us here at HQ with the curve balls of life flying none stop. We aren’t hitting a home run just yet but we had to make some changes to how we can post. Under our current circumstances we cannot offer the next day service anymore. We will always take the order and we will make sure to post it within a day or two from placing your order. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused here for some…but it’s also good to know that good things take time..and free ourselves from the Amazon culture ;)

We will end here by saying for the first time in our history here on LB shit hit the fan. We thank god everyone is ok but for those who know us know that we operate with minimal issues here. So please be patient and know that for us to bring you the medicine we need patience and kindness friends.

This is a gift and not a given and we got quickly reminded that we could loose it all in a blink of an eye…

So we’ve been asked to slow down and pay attention in the process to not get distracted and caught up by the rat race!

We hope to see you soon here and thank you for those who show us love daily. Please send us your reviews and life stories of the medicine so we can rejoice with each one who believes in this medicine with us!

Peace and love ;)
