Ive done it all lol. Oddly I think the sativas work better for my pain. Edibles can still intesify my pain. Ive got yhe best off of vape pens from colorado. But i think the strands that are helping (which are few) have higher cbd content. I have street access to my supply so cant shop exactly how i want. Id like to find the stuff that helps withe steady supply lol.
