And, as my Uncle Joe used to say, it'll cure your wooden leg

I'll stick with the meds.
What type of arthritis do you have, Blinkz? And what, please, are cbd and thc :?
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

And what, please, are cbd and thc
"THC refers to Tetrahydrocannabinols, which is the active chemical in cannabis, or marijuana, responsible for making its users high"
"The active ingredient medical patients tend to be most interested in is the cannabinoid known as cannabidiol, or CBD for short."
There is probably more about this on USA sites, and there are certainly plenty of folks out there willing to supply various versions of cannabis for medical purposes.
This article provides a bit of background to the rather difficult situation in the UK with respect to MS.

Blinkx, to get back to your question,cbd has been mentioned recently on the forum(have you tried using the search button) but I don't know if anyone is actually using it.0
