CBD/THC

We live in NY about one hour north of NYC.

I’m thinking that some CBD/THC would help my husbands discomfort from all the treatments he is beginning as well as whatever he is experiencing from the PC.

Best source for medical marijuana in NY?

Any experience with it?

Thanks!

Hello. My 83 yo Dad recently began using CBD & THC for his pain. He uses CBD in the daytime, THC for sleep at night. Be careful when increasing doses...he took way too much (like 10x more than the 2.5ml drops) one evening and fell like a noodle to the floor next AM, weak & dizzy, ill feeling. Just titrate slowly! Good luck 👍🏼

He is welcome to attend the nyc support group and ask there. Https://malecare.org/nyc

Hi,

I suggest you follow the instructions from this site: col-careny.com/get-new-york... - not endorsing this site, just an example, please do your own research.

Will be best to comply with state rules, then you'll be in the "approved" system, prostate cancer, especially metastasis diagnosis is supported.

I'm an NYC person, but currently in Boston, don't have experience with CBD/THC access in your area. Anyway, your husband should try any means for help, the hormone deprivation outcome from prostate cancer treatment - causes a lower quality of life, but we have no choice because we want to live.

So, in my experience, it will enhance life, go for it!

Massachusetts is only a coupla hour drive north for you, and has legalized

Marijuana, and opened several recreational pot shops that sell a variety of products including CBD oils and related products. Usually very crowded, until the next six or seven shops open up (in progress). From NY, probably the shop in Northhampton is closest. Cool little college town.

Anyway, as my cancers progress (I have two different primaries) my patronage may increase along with them.

Good luck finding what works for you!

FWIW I switched from mm to CBD hemp flower, an alternative which is legal in all 50, safer and cheaper and from my experience more effective, though for extreme pain then something with THC is more effective.

Corner of 125th Street and Lenox Avenue in West Harlem. Just tell them that Nalakrats (one of the brothers) sent you. First class service.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
