I smoke for pain relief in my hip (cartilage worn away, bone on bone when I stand, walk). And anxiety (not covered in Montana).
I take a hit from a small water pipe in the morning, one or two during the day, and a couple in the evening (more if it's been a busy or shitty day)
No one would know if my wife wern't so damn proud of me "smoking pot"!:rastasmoke:

A vaporizer would also help with the lung issue as the burning is greatly reduced.

Different strains will act on different people differently. It may take a few tries before you find the perfect strain to help you out. I use one for pain, one for anxiety, and mix the two for different effects.

Until you try it, you won't know if it will work. Nothing to lose other than the cost of the registration, but look at all the money , water bill, and pain that may be saved!:hippy:
