13 DEC 23: Just a couple of steady-state items to note. The bedtime 50mg CBD doses with melanin help with sleep and a noticeable improvement in 1st thing out-the-bed sore/stiffness. As noted before, C-spine decompression is clearly the main factor maintaining that, probably has been all along, albeit indirectly through inversion years ago. Skipping it starts the elbow tenderizing process with arm-numbing accompaniment. Consuming around 150mg CBD/day total. Feels like I could use more, but the stuff’s expensive. Inflammation is a primary instigator in both the arthritis and nerve stuff. Vaping about half the THC-type cannabis I was at some point previously. I think this is probably due to getting more efficient with it, better equipment, spiking the already HP stuff with kief and bubble hash. Still basically using as much as I can tolerate. That is clearly the therapeutic threshold, for me. Need to be able use enough without going blotto, to blunt pain. It’s a simple tolerance issue, just exactly opposite the way stoners think of it.
