Thanks for posting Kenn, it's nice to know I'm not the only one having this reverse effect.




I had questions of my own for you. Did you by any chance change strains over the course of your smoking and perhaps later smoke a more Sativa-dominant strain instead of Indica? And when you've taken breaks from smoking and then returned to it, did you notice more analgesic relief after the break? I was curious about that.
I changed strains quite frequently, whatever was the flavour of the month from my dealer(s), and they usually had something different going. I found that strains with more of a body-high (indica I guess) were more painful than sativa's, but they all made the pain worse regardless. I actually went off for a whole 6 weeks once, and it still had the exact same effect on my pain levels when I smoked it. Another time I went off for a month, same thing. I'm sort of hoping that after I haven't smoked for along while, maybe half a year, I can get the analgesia again when I have the odd toke. I'm never going right back into the casual-smoking lifestyle again though, I want my tolerance right at the bottom where I can get relief and certain magic that weed used to provide.


Thanks for the link btw, I'll check it out . You've been immensely helpful as always birdgirl.
mrdevious Reviewed by mrdevious on . Could somebody PLEASE explain this to me....finally! There's something I've really been wondering about, but it seems nobody ever answers me when I mention it in other threads. I'm also wondering if it's typical of other people, or it's just me. A brief description of my condition; I have soft tissue damage throughout my upper and lower back, and in my neck. Nerve damage in 3 points in my spine, extremely painful needles that go down my arms (though that's gone since I got on lyrica), and sciatica + burning pain in my entire legs, all the way Rating: 5
