this is a brief info about period i used thc+cbd. some things that have happened in that period maybe are not connected with cannabis anyway, but i feel free to mention them. everything i did i documented as accurate as i could, but next time i'll do it perfectly. if tomorrow ever comes..
**
i took app 100mg thc/day and app 150mg/day cbd in a period of 3 months (sep-nov). thc i bought (that time was on the street) - i was very suspecious. didnt know it's composition. now i grow my own weed, with certificate of composition. cbd i bought at lazarus naturals, charlotte's web, rso amsterdam...
**
i am satisfied, i will do it again, but this time with my own thc.
pros:
1p. sleep improvement (sleep app 9-11 hours/day, without cannabis 5-6 hours/day)
2p. crisp colours, no aches at all.
3p*. after i noticed that i dont cough anymore and after i noticed that i dont have to take more than one breath in one sentence, i asked my doctor to check my lungs. fvc improved from 84% to 101% (documented, checked 3 times).
4p**. my right foot improved. it dropped in april/2019. after 4-5 months foot curled and toes curled. horrible! i didnt think it was possible to correct it. i was desperate. first my small toe erected.
5p. my right grip is stronger (a little bit). example: i coudn't gather fingers, now i can open bag of candies, chips etc
6p. fasciculations disapeared almost 80%
cons:
1c. it seems that using of cannabis should be permanent. it works when you take it. when i used thc, i didnt have cramps in fist (medianus nerve). as soon as i stopped, cramps continued
2c. i am weaker and worse than before cannabis, but question is how i would look like if i didnt use cannabis
3c. shaking, coldness, clonus etc - all these are side effects, but it depends on a cannabis strain.
4c you should carefully decide about dosage. you cannt be on thc and be functional. forget about it.
5c. forget about logic "i will take all my thc at the bed time." it is true and good, but not definite! it is much better to use 2x50mg, than 1x150mg!!!
6c thc is for als just in a beginning. if you are exhausted, you should consider someone to be with you. i live alone and by now, my highest score was 125mg. dont be alone with higher doses!!
7c. speech deteriorated. it is not weak, nasal or so... it is slow. i can not sing a song with words, but tune i can follow.
8c. fasciculations got back, but less...

i must admit that i used dmso, nmn, nad+, performed detox with zeolites and charcoal, liposomal rala and glutatione. all these things i used before with no effect.
this time i go with my own harvest supported by cbda, thca...
