I'm having RAI in about 10 days and wondered if it was safe to take some 'gummies' - cannabis edibles - with me?

I’d speak to whoever is doing your RAI before you take anything like that.

THC raises the blood pressure and expands the blood vessels, so probably not a good idea.

Thank you. I didn’t know that so very helpful.

Why are you having RAI?

I just read some of your previous threads so ignore that question.

I would ask Elaine Moore about her experience of RAI.

Here is a link to her site
