My sympathy for your wife and yourself. Firstly, it's pretty shocking that humans have been using this medicine for thousands of years and in the past 100, we've forgotten how to use it (Thanks prohibition). Please don't take any of this as fact, as proper science is important and unfortunately cannabis has a long way to go. Despite having many studies now with remarkable results, large scale and long term population studies will not happen in our lifetime, so all we have are clues from the science in what cannabis is actually doing, and lot's of anecdotal evidence on how to apply it successfully. Let me offer you what I have found. I started using cannabis for migraines. An incredibly lucky discovery considering I hadn't smoked it in over 15 years prior, but by chance I found my migraines were turned off in seconds when I smoked a particular strain. Something no pill has ever been able to do. This effect was instantaneous. I believe this effect comes from a combination of the THC and the terpene profile. This makes a lot of sense when you consider what we know of aromatherapy and the effects different scents have for different issues. I think the receptive psychoactive nature of the THC + the particular terpene profile is key to instant relief for certain ailments - hence different strains having different effects and benefits. Cannabis works on different levels though. The way it works for my rheumatism is not an instant relief thing, but works long term through reinforcement of the endocannabinoid system (it seems) Something you may not realise about cannabis if you're new to it, is the tolerance we build up to it. You may hear some stoners talk about not being able to get high any more and having to take a tolerance break. This is because of how cannabis works and is unlike any other drug. We can consume as much cannabis as we like with zero danger of overdose. Once our endocannabinoid system is saturated, we simply don't get any higher. As cannabis stays in our body for quite some time, the effect builds up until we no longer get high, we just feel medicated. At this point, it's worth looking at what the endocannabinoid system does. In a nutshell, the endocannabinoid system effects every single part of our body and regulates every system within it, and outside of our own endocannabinoids, the cannabinoids in the plant are the only other things that effect it (by modulating our CB1 & CB2 receptors). These receptors are retrograde neurotransmitters (this means they can signal both ways, unlike regular neurotransmitters). They are the most abundant neurotransmitter we have and are responsible for keeping our body in homeostasis. That there is the key to why most things go wrong in the human body, and why it's absolutely criminal that it was ever taken away from us. With that in mind, I think the key to treating long-term ailments is the saturation of the endocannabinoid system. I noticed a few years ago that when I smoked to the point I couldn't get any higher, this is when my rheumatoid pain would completely subside. I also noticed that I could get to this point then stop smoking, and my pain wouldn't return for months (4-6 on average). So for the past 2 years, i've been using this method. I will smoke a shit ton of cannabis in a short space of time (usually 2 ounces in a couple of weeks) until my endocannabinoid system is saturated, then stop. I found that the quality of the bud and strain used seemed to effect the length it took my pain to return. I believe this is because the saturation of the system is where the healing takes place. It reinforces the system and allows our body to fix itself, then over time the depletion and imbalance comes back. Saying that and although this start/stop method clearly works for me, I don't think it's the right way to go because whenever I do start up again, it's not very pleasant. This is a phenomena I can't quite figure out, but another thing I hear about cannabis all the time is someone used to smoke it but after a long time away, they can't do it anymore because of negative side effects. I experience this when I start back up again after months away and by the time i'm used to it again, it's also time to stop. I haven't smoked since January now and my pains are starting to come back. This time, I will be saturating my system and then continuing to consume it one way or another. I plan to start as I always have, but will then go onto taking RSO daily and seeing how it pans out. To actually answer your question, the advice given by @Arthur Mix Is a good place to start. Definitely aim to grow your own, it's really the only option in this country to get consistent, affordable medicine. I realise you're exploring options right now so jumping into that might not be appealing just yet, so I pray you can find a source somewhere to try it out. Please don't just buy street weed from some guy in a pub though, the quality of bud and finish is so so important. Remember most gang grown street weed is usually 'skunk' strains that have everything but the THC bred out of it with the sole purpose to get you 'off your tits' and barely any use medically. Try and find people who grow it and know what they're doing, you'll be surprised at just how many people do. Applying for a canna card and going private is also an option, although I've heard the quality isn't there. Nevertheless, 1:1 strains are a very good place for beginners to start. After that, i've found that any strain with diesel in it's lineage is a safe bet for pain. Do a search for RSO (Rick Simpson oil). You'll find it's pretty easy to produce once you have an abundance of quality bud. God bless you both and I hope your wife can get the relief she needs. -
