is experiencing central pain, and thus
it is difficult to treat. Fibromyalgia is
an example of central pain where the
underlying cause is unknown.
There is not a lot of data concerning
cannabis and central pain at this time.
Cannabis has, however, been demon-
strated to effectively treat pain from
fibromyalgia. Although the function of
why it treats this type of pain is contro-
versial, cannabis is an effective option.
Experiment with high dosed of CBD,
and low to medium doses of THC.
Long lasting edibles are a great option
for managing pain all day long without
having to re-dose.
Practical Application
Keep in mind that use of high-THC/
low-CBD strains may have the opposite
affect in treating pain. Too much THC
has been shown to worsen pain and
other adverse side effects, as well as
create tolerance on the CB1 receptors,
reducing long term efficacy. A better
strategy is to use a balanced THC/CBD
strain and to supplement with pure CBD
products. This strategy may result in a
better, longer lasting treatment for pain.
