It is really up to you and your tolerance as to how active you can remain while taking medical cannabis. I do not like to get high and I use CBD/THC everyday for pain and inflammation. I would recommend if you are sensitive to THC and do not want to get high that you try a high CBD product with moderate levels of THC and also use a topical cream. \n\nYou will need to experiment to see what works. My guess is is you have no knee cartilage that maybe swimming might be better though! ;-)\n\nI just wrote a new post on how to use cannabis without getting high:\n\nhttps://www.hellomd.com/health-wellness/leaving-your-lover-not-getting-high\n\nHope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11452-markdown","title":"If i'm just starting off with CBD, do I got with the 200mg or the 500mg?","slug":"if-im-just-starting-off-with-cbd-do-i-got-with-the-200mg-or-the-500mg","content":"\"CBD dosage\"\n_____________________\nI'm not really sure I understand this question due to a possible error in the way it's presented.  A normal dose of CBD is not usually 200 to 500 mg, that maybe the total amount in the bottle. A typical dose is more like 28 mg in one milliliter but that's after your well-established on CBD. To start with I typically will put a patient on 3 to 5 drops of a highly concentrated CBD/ low THC tincture 4 to 6 times per day for one week and then when we know the blood pressure is stable you could try going to twice a day dosing of your CBD but you will not feel the full effect of CBD for about three weeks. If at three weeks you're not feeling great, you may try increasing the dose a small amount twice daily. I also do not know what you're taking CBD for and that could make a difference in the dosing.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11449-markdown","title":"What are some THC and CBD guidelines for relief from TMJ pain and soreness?","slug":"what-are-some-thc-and-cbd-guidelines-for-relief-from-tmj-pain-and-soreness","content":"\"I've suffered from TMJ for 15 years and aside from protecting my teeth from continued damage, my doctors and dentists haven't been able to to anything for me (unless you count prescribing muscle relaxants and pain killers, which are bandaids with baggage). I've noticed that some strains of THC actually increase my clenching and pain but others seem to help. I'll obviously keep experimenting to find what might work for me, but where does the science suggest I should start to look for TMJ relief? Which strains have muscle-relaxing qualities? Anxiety-reducing qualities? ..etc\"\n_____________________\nits sativa that makes tmj/anxiety worse. cant even play with hybrids, got to get STRONG INDICA's ONLY!  been doin this for 30 yrs now, I know!  kief, wax, shatter are best/strongest forms.  strains can vary. smoking in a EASY/CLEAR hitting 1 inch round bong seems to be best.  bowls/joints strain tmj muscles with lips in kissing motion.\n\nclintk9\n_____________________\nAs a patient with TMJ, I highly recommend considering fast-acting CBD-rich medications to mitigate your pain and decrease clenching. Generally speaking, an even balance of CBD to THC provides the strongest analgesic effects but the \"side effects\" of psychoactivity are not acceptable for all patients so it depends on your individual needs. As well as being an analgesic and an inflammation fighter, CBD is also an anti-anxiety agent and an anti-spasmodic. The tightness, clenching, and pain should be relieved by all of these properties - to some extent at least. Ingesting liquid tincture medications directly under the tongue (a sublingual dose) will provide the fastest therapeutic effects and is also discreet.\n\njessicapeters\n_____________________\nI have found that a combination of meds is effective for my TMJ. Inhaling 1:1 CBD:THC strains has helped tremendously, but the most annoying thing about TMJ is the acute pain that will not leave your jaw at those moments where you can't sleep, are at work, etc. I have found that topicals are very effective and defeating the pain in my jaw, while the 1:1 strains really help the muscles relax on the whole.\n\nryan","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11446-markdown","title":"CBD versus THC? ","slug":"cbd-versus-thc","content":"\"What's the difference and what do I need to know as a new consumer?\"\n_____________________\nBoth CBD and THC are cannabinoids, along with CBN, THCA, and 90+ others.  Each cannabinoid serves a purpose in our endocannabinoid system. Each cannabinoid has a different function.\n\nTHC is the cannabinoid that gives the patient a \"buzz\" or a head high as it is psychoactive. THC is used to treat nausea, act an appetite stimulant, reduce blood pressure, calm asthma, and treat glaucoma.\n\nBelieve it or not, Cannabis is NOT psychoactive until heat has been applied either through combustion or heating (baking, coil from vaporizer, etc).  \n\nCBD is a cannabinoid that is NOT psychoactive, however it does calm the mind and body.  CBD should be used when you experience negative effects from THC.Are you feeling jittery? having racing thoughts? a fast beating heart?  CBD will quell these negative effects in a pinch.\n\nthehighnote\n_____________________\nCBD and THC are different cannabinoids in the cannabis plant that offer different medicinal benefits. Watch Andrea's video answer for more details on the different uses and effects.\n\namanda\n_____________________\nBoth THC and CBD are part of an estimated 85 different chemical compounds found in cannabis known as cannabinoids.  Cannabidiol — CBD— is a compound in cannabis that has significant medical effects, is non-psychoactive and can actually counter the psychoactivity of THC. The reduced psychoactivity of CBD-rich cannabis may make it an appealing treatment option for patients seeking anti-inflammatory, anti-pain, anti-anxiety, anti-psychotic, and/or anti-spasm effects without disconcerting lethargy or dysphoria.\nHere is a link to a you tube video that gives you more information on CBD\nhttps://youtu.be/31SrjjgPbhU\n\nPiantaTinta","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11442-markdown","title":"what is Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome","slug":"what-is-cannabinoid-hyperemesis-syndrome","content":"\"My husband has been taking MM for a few weeks; he has a slow growing glioma. He is taking high THC (RSO) and a large amount of CBD oil to squelch the high.  For the last five days he has complained of being nausea and feels like vomiting.  He has vomited which is more like gagging rather than throwing anything up.  I am wondering if he has Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndorme.  However, what I have read about it, it is rare and affects long standing smokers.  \"\n_____________________\nHe needs to get 900mg RSO and 180mg of CBD with your 62% CBD test result 180mg is 2% of 900 mg of THC in a gram syringe filled to 10mg and another syrunge filled to 7 of your RSO. Fill the 2nd or when done with the first syringe to 7mg thats one full 10mg syring and another at 7mg syrunge for 17mg.\nFor your CBD you need to fill your 1g syring with your CBD % to the number 3 thats 2% of 900mg THC daily dose that will be effective for him to work on any health issue if your trying to help the THC high from being felt then give him more I was stating the max dose per day for it t0 benefit him.

That could become dangerous if one is engaged in sports and falls over from a blood pressure drop. CBD should help reduce the need for SSRIs. Start the CBD oil in small doses spread out throughout the day but cut the SSRI dose in half by taking a pill every other day. You will still need to use caution and watch the blood pressure or pay attention if you feel dizzy. \n\nYou do have endocannabinoid receptors so the CBD is actually more effective at reducing depression but it does take 3 to 4 weeks before you feel the full benefit of CBD. Be sure that your vitamin D level is above 55 ng/ml for optimal functioning of your body and to be certain that the depression is not from vitamin D deficiency. \n\nContinued to reduce the dose of SSRI medication by spreading your pills out from every other day to one every third day or every fourth day and slowly go off the SSRI medication. If at any point your body freaks out missing the SSRI, you may take one or two extra pills but then continue with the dose reduction schedule. \n\nThe body likes SSRIs but there is no need to take them past six months. Ultimately, You may want to have your genetic chart done to see if you have a neurotransmitter instability and that is the matter of plugging in the right nutrients to make your genetic chart work right and CBD does help your genetic chart. Just use caution especially when you first start taking the CBD oil. \n\nWhat is your dose of CBD oil? I usually recommend a high CBD concentration with low THC for best results with the least number of drops.\n\nHopefully, this information helps but keep in mind everyone is different and there is no one right answer for everyone. If your aim is to redo shoot use of SSRI medication, CBD is the way to go but you may want to add a little more THC in the evening to help you sleep deeply.\n\nDr Olson\n_____________________\n\nCannabis is a very safe herb that has never caused an overdose death. SSRI's can cause many severe side effects and have some major interactions with other drugs and foods. However, there should be no major interactions or contra-indications in using cannabis and SSRI. \n\nHowever, this will depend on your reasons for taking the SSRI and cannabis. I would be very careful and proceed with caution in increasing or decreasing the dose of cannabis or SSRI. CBD is especially well tolerated and is best taken in a whole plant formulation.\n\nAndrew Vanmd\n_____________________\n  \nThe only place where i was able to purchase cbd legally was this verified place here http://bit.ly/2fdLpzz Fast shipping, great quality.\n\nKatelyn39\n_____________________\n\nI have been taking CBD oil for the last 6 weeks so I could reduce my dose of sertraline as it was badly affecting my ability to orgasm. I reduced the dose of sertraline from 200mg a day down to 150mg for two weeks and then down to 100mg plus a few drops of 3% CBD oil every evening. The effect has been great. My anxiety is lower than it was even on 200mg of Sertraline, I've been sleeping better, and sexually I am performing as normal. \n\nI am a big fan of Sertraline and have been using it for 20 years. It has had a really positive affect on my life enabling me to build a decent career, get married and have kids. So I am in no way anti sertraline or SSRI's  and I have not had negative side effects until, on my doctor's advice, I had doubled my does from 100mg to 200mg about a year ago as I am going through a divorce. \nI did originally go to my doctor about the anorgasmic side affects and asked for a different type of anti depressant. We discussed options (Bupropin, Remeron, Luvox etc)but he didn't rate them.\n\nHectorT","image":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"base64":"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAABQAAAANCAYAAACpUE5eAAAACXBIWXMAAAsSAAALEgHS3X78AAADq0lEQVQ4yxWT+zPcBxTFv9Nppz/wg+hDkpk2oVSmSTuJlFanhEkZ41nUq54R1O5qgoaItxTFsjLibXex4rGbLmLteq5YlmA9ltRjSZv+J59uf7hzzw9nzpk591xB2ReIpjeEqcEYTLpHGA29mM3LWDa3WBySM5gbTX92KF1pQTTEfIsiL4fZxh7Gih7zvLSJP0ulaIrrGMt/yERpGYKsNYKupymMT7QytzSFzriIdnaWiXk9C6Y5FFIR7eXJSAsSKf85mJrkcAaKC+lIjaM+yI+WyFDa42MZzM7kZUsrQqbIC5WmC/3KLnL1GBr9BLMrC2xYLZgtqyjl1UxqFezsbLGzZ+HAauVv21v2ls2M1lbQkv4jzfEBDIrjMMhKEeLSApH1dlAja6NvuJ+13Q2Wt0zMm3Rop+QolY9RyGvQ6Yc4tp1gfXvApEXN/I6evTMrp2enWLc3WZp5zviQDGHBvIZxfQOlWkNbnwyVup2BYSnKwTo6ux/RIhPR2JhJX2+V3WyF5rl6/Ko8CKzxJLr5OyT9CUyYO3jzzwGHZycIu8cnHJy+Yd92inF1kTGtnNa2EiqqMqisSrPjh7yYVXNk58zbFvDP+grnyw5c9HbGNfYDvHI/RqUMwbpUyMH67wiWv46wHB6zfWRj//RfrPZ81nd2MRgN6Bam7djC6/1DbFYby2YDIUlXcProHS64OnLex4GgpIukR35KdsJnNJZ4ITwZ1iJTaWhSjtDcr+aPXhWtChWmV1scvT5jR7fCao+G2YZO9JV19FfcJyr3Jp63HXELdibr3udIEtz5+otzhAVcQEjIk5AoEZMkyiE+6y4/paYhzpJg0hpZk0+jr+1G86CC0fv5TJaVs6l8htagJiDiOs6u7+Lt60hZhivF6R40Ft1ESBSJiUpLJTA8FF9/P9xd3fglMpFXgwsoRBV0pqQzJBZjqG9ivUvBSKX9SOVpSKUl3MvPIDTEm9BvnEkNcOC3+A8RboV8z7Ubrly67IKLkxPn3nufQPer1IcnUBsSRk/qHaarG1iUNtk/IwfZr+EU3vEjM8UHkSiIZnv3no0oeNpWQW1VCsLI5CSVdZWER/3Al1fcuHrpE66ddyHK04MHvt5II2+jFCfRlRdNfW4YxXeDyU2/RXKCD9HRNyivLmDupYn17X2W1zcR1NMzTM4tMToxTXvP/5Vpp9u+h4ZGGB1Q0VQsoSAlmKxoX1IifYgJvU6EfWJj/SkoktDTP8C4XePFzDy6eSP/AUm0mStMICfeAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC","aspectRatio":1.492537313432836,"src":"/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/8a2e0/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.png","srcSet":"/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/69585/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.png 200w,\n/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/497c6/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.png 400w,\n/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/8a2e0/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.png 522w","srcWebp":"/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/08971/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.webp","srcSetWebp":"/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/61e93/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.webp 200w,\n/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/1f5c5/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.webp 400w,\n/static/3aab2a34ae67f7c7c425a72a4ba11150/08971/19befeb801b28981abe9366538d7954e.webp 522w","sizes":"(max-width: 522px) 100vw, 522px"}}}}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11400-markdown","title":"Are your CBD vape products available in Colorado?","slug":"are-your-cbd-vape-products-available-in-colorado","content":"\n_____________________\nBloom Farms is currently only available in California.
