    MMJ and Nerve Pain

    I'm so sorry to hear of anyone suffering nerve pain. I agree with the comment in this thread that it's a very individual thing. I'm on Gabapentin and antidepressant. Gabapentin is used as an anti-convulsant however an active drug in this medication blocks the signals that cause nerve pain. Same...

    Reasons to vape. Lets each name one in 1 brief sentence. Only post once.

    Vaping works like inhaler medications. If you taste it, you got the medicine.

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    Go Seabiscuit Go! BTW- You do know that Seabiscuit was a champion Thoroughbred. Who knew? God may have some big plans for you, but you need to get the repairs done first. Me too! I'm going to need some patch and repair work done. It's just like having a project to work on, difference is it's...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    That is so true!! I have opted to be very selective on who knows I'm trying medical cannabis. It is nothing like the hippy toking for fun stuff at all. And to vape requires knowing a lot about the breakdown of the cannabis plant. There really is a lot to know and for us that have a medical...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    Well said Iwien! Yes, a shop that sold me the PAX unit recommended this site to learn about vaping. But I keep in mind that everyone consuming cannabis legally are supposed to have a medical condition so I don't assume otherwise, however my state is not requiring medical records to be permitted...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    Oh my goodness. What happened here?? I think I understood this particular thread being specific to an autoimmune disease. That’s the health crisis I’m in. Perhaps this site is not a good place to feel safe and learn how to cope. I found another support site called Daily Strength. The groups...

    Roasted Buds - pre-decarboxylating your weed.

    I'm good...I'm in a State where it's legal. And yes, I will only buy from a dispensary to assure I get medical grade. My case is too serious to be bothering with the unknown. The dispensary I went to was a big help in getting me started. They post grade info and pricing on their website...

    Night Sweats/Insomnia

    I think you should see a doctor just to make sure it's not a serious condition. Your body cranking up the heat might be your immune system ringing a warning bell something is terribly wrong. MMJ suppresses the immune system which may explain why you get some relief from it. I too had night...

    This thread should be named 'smoking with engineers'. Leave it to a man to take a gadget and mad scientist the thing. LOL!!!

    Roasted Buds - pre-decarboxylating your weed.

    Seems the pharmacies are missing a book of business here. The tested product has to be graded and includes the specs. Each strain being unique, it wouldn't be a stretch to note the vape temp needed to customize the strain for us customers. The professional term is called 'compounding'. That's...

    Roasted Buds - pre-decarboxylating your weed.

    I thought I read everything but I guess not cause I sure missed that part. So I can do it in a regular cook oven but only on a very low temp and only time the higher temp would work is if the vape unit does it and the product is consumed immediately after. Does that sound right? So in this...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    Do I dare make a funny here? The ladies will get a chuckle. I'm reading the hyper thyroid symptoms and they sound like symptoms some of us women get with mennopause. :lol: Now imagine going to your doctor and telling them all this and they smile, pat your on the head and say, it's no big deal...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    There's still more discovery work your doctors can order. Since you and siblings are sharing these symptoms (give or take) if they gene map you, that would give docs a list of diseases your predisposed to have and/or inherited. Anything your siblings match to that hasn't already been checked off...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    Whoa! That sounds like a main nerve is under attack!!! Have you been diagnosed or are you still getting treatments as things come up? I bet Neurosurgeon would know the answer. Can you ask for a referral to one as another opinion on your case? A Neurosurgeon has to know more than a...

    Roasted Buds - pre-decarboxylating your weed.

    I only toasted a tiny amount. Just enough to load one oven full on my PAX. I'm confused, I thought it was ok to toast off the the THC? I know it's got a lot of attributes, but also the primary ingredient that brings on euphoria? I'm a light weight when it comes to the euphoria Cannabis causes...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    I can relate. Difference here, it's my immune system that goes rouge. What in the world did we eat or get exposed to causing all these hyper responses in our body's? And the real killer is the inflammation these events create. Not good! Do you feel like your body is trying to electrocute...

    What to do, when your own body is trying to kill you?

    Have they checked your Thymus Gland? Your symptoms say they shouldn't over look that one, ask for it. It could be infected or diseased (Thymoma) and triggering your Thyroid which would work normal otherwise. Been studying up on this. A tumor in me led docs to my Thymus. Still waiting on...

    Roasted Buds - pre-decarboxylating your weed.

    I've been researching the same thing. The cooking term is called 'sweating'. 320 oven for 30 min. I'm going to try small amounts till I find a sweet spot. I know the information we're getting is true because I can feel the difference between earlier vs. a later vape. Don't know if you saw that...

    MMJ and Nerve Pain

    I'm a work in progress getting a diagnosis. I too have nerve pain. It shoots out of my knees at the reflex points then runs down my leg to the ankles and feet. It's so bad it cuts off circulation making my bones and muscles hurt. Then it cuts off circulation making my one foot numb. It...

    Hi all, I decided to experiment a cleaning idea. Worked great for me so here are the details. Now days ovens may be self clean, but microwaves are a different story. Oven cleaner is too corrosive for a microwave, so the product I found that works is good ol' lemon oil. Step 1: I set my 'empty'...
