Measuring THC Blood or Urine Content Will Not Detect Impairment

I've tried many strains for my back pain and for me weed only works on certain pains/issues. Mostly muscle strains type pain BUT for my herniated disk which I ended up in emergency last week cause I was pretty much crippled weed does nothing. Only way to kill the pain was T3's. I actually found out about Tumeric and I'm amazed how well it takes down inflammation vs Advil was doing nothing.

I find Certain strains will help with herniated disc pain, but they're usually very strong heavy indica strains that will knock you out for the night. And it is also very pheno dependent as well. Everyone has their strain... a friend with back pain swears Master Kush is made for him, me not so much.

If T3's work you should be happy and use them as needed, as little as needed.

I need to pick up swimming myself!

I've heard of those CBD Isolates as well but have never tried it. It usually looks like a crystal/honeycomb shatter that is nearly white.

Not sure yet did the MRI two days ago so will see what the new results show. 10 years ago the MRI showed a herniated disk but no operation needed and I was ok since then with the occasional back pain when I lifted something wrong or was working on my car and my back was bent forward for some time. I'll find out in two weeks. What was weird this time is it was 5+ weeks of serous pain, two days of insane pain and then one morning nothing. It did scare me a little as on the day I went to emergency both of my feet had tingling unlike before when just the right leg/foot.

The other thing is I've been super active in the last two years doing cardio 4-5 day per week and doing lots of trails and best shape in my life to all of a sudden bam its done. Gonna stick to the elliptical in a few weeks and hopefully if the MRI shows nothing serious be back to doing trails in few weeks after that.
I wonder if the disc itself has degenerated or if its the intervertebral disc(cartilage in between)

Disk fusion off the table? Or is it an absolute last resort among options?

10 years between will show any changes for sure.... especially if the disc have degenerated ....these things rarely repair themselves but can become stable for a period of time...before a flare up occurs..usually just from a " wrong movement" of some sort.
for me its my neck mostly.(structural issues).... then degenerative disc disease in my middle back and more structural issues in the lower back.
surgery I was told was a last resort... once I can no longer walk....then the result would out weight the risks at that point.

I don't like how I feel with pain pills. Been prescribed a few different ones over the years and I always ended up deciding the pain was more tolerable than the pills.
for me I usually will tough it out for a couple of years before I go looking for some pharma relief....once I'm no longer able to sleep regularly and become depressed from the fatigue, constant chronic pain causes after a while.
All the power to those of you who can cope on minimum medications...like T3's the longer you hold off the better...
I have been on and off pain meds including the hard stuff...for the past 20 years...so realistically there will be more pain meds in my future but as long as I can manage on oil...and a light dose of pain meds...I will stick with that.

It comes in the form of “distillate” or “Isolate” it’s everywhere. Around $50 a gram. Never seen or heard it in budder form. I’m skeptical that what you got was CBD.

Itsme.
I didnt buy any fool.. :lol:

I was actually giving WHATFG the info if she wanted to try some.in budder form :lol: ;)

you say you can get it EVERYWHERE that'd be the first time I have heard of it
..buying pure CBD from MJ plants rather than Hemp plants is not easy from what I have seen and I have been looking for years actually.

Last resort for me it was. I haven't been the same since.

It was gifted to me from another patient who grew it and loved it.
oh so it had both THC and CBD i it then I guess..and it was not a CBD dislttlate like buttwad has suggested, that EVERYONE knows about and buys for 50 a gram ..lol:idea::confused: :lol: 50 a gram for CBD that costs NOTHING to produce.. fucking hilarious beyond words! :spew::wall::spew::cuss::cuss::spew:

The dumb runs deep in this one. Cost nothing to produce yet you have been looking for years for it? Which is it? Nearly free or impossable to find.? You do realize that you need lab equipment to make CBD isolate, right? Lab equipment isn’t free.

Itsme.
