Hi, I've registered to this forum in hope somebody with more experience would be able to help me.
I'm a caregiver for my mom who has metastatic (lobular) breast cancer (mets to bones, peritoneum, uterus and stomach). We decided to give her RSO in suppositories since she never tried cannabis before and I've read that the high effect is much lower with suppositories. I followed the 4 days doubling doses protocol. We started with 0.06g per day (0.02g per suppo), then doubled to 0.12g per day, then 0.25g and then 0.50g per day. Everything was fine until the last two days of taking 0.25g per day when mom started hallucinating, but still wanted to increase the dose to 0.50, because she (and me) wanted to come to 1g per day as soon as possible. But since she was hallucinating all day and all night and I was afraid it was tiring for her since she wasn't able to rest, I decided to reduce the dose to 0.18g per day (in between 0.12g and 0.25g dose). The first three days on this dose she was feeling better and didn't hallucinate that much, just occasionally and she also told me that this dose is ok, that those higher were too much for her and that she remembers she was talking nonsense. But yesterday she started to hallucinate more again and now I don't know what to do since she is hallucinating that much on such a small dose, when she was able to come up to 0.5g already.
What should I do? Should I stop giving her the oil for a few days so she can recover? She is already pretty weak, since she can't eat and drink much because of stomach mets.
Is this a known effect of RSO? She is talking about 100 different things all mixed up one sentence after another and picking things up with her fingers when nothing's there. I thought she would just sleep really deep if the dose was too strong, I didn't expect all these hallucinations.
Thanks in advance for all your replies.
