Marijuana As A Medicine (THC)?
A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

What specific strain of Medical Marijuana have you found to be affective? Which issue of yours did you find it helped/hindered? What method of intake did you prefer? Did it help
People interested in trying this medication option should try a strain that others find helped their similar issues
To give a Pain Patient something that affects mood and creativity is not giving them the input they need. Opinions made with bad data do not help.

Your post ask so many great questions!
I use to smoke “ street level “ Cannabis but it was hit or miss. Some strains helped pain and symptoms but others intensified them. My family dr was against this approach. Luckily I didn’t need a referral and provincial medical coverage provides all cost of appointments and card.
Since then I’ve tried several licensed providers and I wholeheartedly recommend MedReleaf .
Going in it was suggested I go with Aurora but unfortunately they we do popular that they weren’t able to take new patients at the time.
May 14 2018 , just months before legalization in Canada 🇨🇦 the largest Cannabis deal was made ( combined worth $7 billion) when Aurora absorbed MedReleaf in a $3.2 billion business deal.
Combined they have 9 production facilities in Canada and 2 in Denmark.
The combined company has distribution agreements with Canada Post Services, Selects liquor stores in Alberta and Quebec. And Pharmasave and Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacies.
MedReleaf has been a leader in medical marijuana field claiming several prestigious awards at Canadian Cannabis Awards,including “ TOP” licensed producer.
The highest thc % I’ve seen offered was 27-28 %.
The information breakdown and terpene information allows me to purchase specific to my symptoms and pain.
The now have a “ recreational “ brand called “ San Rafael’71”
“Altavie” is their “Cannabis-inspired “ beverage and edibles industry.
Amsterdam Breweries “4:20 Pale Ale is also their product.
I have replaced medications for depression, ptsd,sleep, appetite,inflammation and pain. As well as in’s, muscle relaxers and more by using a variety of their cbd , thc and cbd /thx combined products.
I have tried a few licensed providers, legal dispensaries , local growers from one side of Canada to the other in past couple of years and have yet to find a more consistent and accurate form of medical grade product.
I’m fond of “ midnight “ for its cbd
As well as “Solveris” for its price and thc/cbd mix of leftovers from “all” available strains.
The availability is expected to reach several countries so keep an eye out.
Hopefully this post helps some people 🙏
Gentle hugs 🤗

There are two major classifications of THC in marijuana.
Sativa is the one for the head. Kids on the street ask for this one. Mental issues can be helped. Many strains are Sativa or mostly Sativa hybrid or blend. Makes me sing and want to jump around.
Indica is for the body. Again many strains are Indica or hybrid Indica. Helps with pain a lot.
I pick (after experimentation) Indica Hybrid 70/30. Mostly body with a little tickle. I did not really like 100% Indica, thought I would. Too heavy.
Give some Indica a try then make a decision. Or do you believe in Reefer Madness? That movie showed me they had no idea what they were talking about but could create laws.

Diesel is actually a Sativa that has pain properties. Try an Indica for even better results.

One concern of trusting a bud tender is they will only try to sell what they have. Perfect strain might be Death Bubba, they won't have it, too strong.

Hang on! Talking about heat when it is minus 8 outside and we are wearing down jackets is kind of heavy handed.
When you send your heat here, we do not think it is a bad thing.
