Primary doctor suggested that I try marijuana instead of more opiates. I need to ask my pain doctor first a I signed a paper saying that I would only get pain meds from him. I have an appointment on January 5th and I want to go with some information about the success of using marijuana. I also need to know what to ask for.

I am looking into using CBD oil or marijuana. I am not a regular pot user. I tried some cookies laced with it and it started my heart racing and felt fidgety, which I don't want. Is there something I can use for pain and mild anxiety when needed? They just recently started opening dispensaries here. Trying to find relief without adding other issues. Thanks.
Hello peaceandlove, CBD oil works great plus you have better control on its use. A few drops can be some relief. Feel better, lori k
