Re: New Kratom User - when to take

About 4 years ago I used Kratom to get off opioids and have been on it ever since. I did it slowly and it was not a difficult detox. I also went off gabapentin, which for me was more difficult. Because of all the effort made by the FDA to ban Kratom and a number of cities actually banning it I have ...

Re: Hyland's Restful Legs

I tried it. At first it seemed to help a little. Then not at all. I still have a 1/2 used bottle somewhere.

Re: Medical Marijuana

Hi Peggy! So good to see the friendly people still here. I’m interested in the RSO combo you just posted. Finally, my state is coming around and I read one of the dispensaries are caring it. So, could you please be s little more specific about amounts. I know you’re in the experimental phase but jus...

Re: Medical Marijuana

Hi guys. I could have jumped in on a number of posts so I'm just doing a quick reply instead. I relate 100% to Yawny on CBN. I have tried all combos of MMJ and regardless of what the percentage is, or if's it's Sativa dominant, Indica dominant or a hybrid, THC activates my brain. I can have the most...

Re: Trying out Kratom

Re: Trying out Kratom

I weaned myself off opioids gradually also, although not as regimented. I want to try different strains but fear they may not be as potent. My last two batches of red borneo were darker in color and seemed less potent. I got a brand new batch the other day which is the bright green I had begun with...

Re: Kratom berry compote

Some interesting recipes! I am one of those people who used Kratom to get off opioids. I had been put on them after back surgery 16 months ago. I add a small amount of hot water to my Kratom and shake it up real good so it dissolves. For me this is key as I hate drinking lumps. Then I add grapefruit...

Re: Trying out Kratom

Ten days ago I got off both oxycodone and hydrocodone. I weaned down using the Kratom. I was advised to alternate doses. One opioid then 4 hours later Kratom, etc. When I got down to a low enough dose I quit the opioids and just used the Kratom. I was told to not take both within at least 4 hours or...

Re: Kratom effectiveness isssue

I’ve been using Kratom for a little over a month and have had really good results so far. I joined the American Kratom Association which has good info and also alerted me to the possible ban (Schedule 1drug) by the FDA. I also belong to a few FB groups where I’ve gotten some good information and peo...

Re: Kratom berry compote

Do you need to tell your sleep medicine doctor that you're going somewhere else? I haven't told my back surgeon I'm going to a pain management doctor (recommended by by primary care doctor) because he so egotistical he'll never accept the surgery didn't fix my symptoms. I've had my primary care Dr f...

Re: Medical Marijuana

Hi Yawny, Making the CBN was not at all too complicated. The cannabutter was a little more trouble because of my personality. Because it was my 1st time I kept taking the temperature of the water bath as if it were a sick child The muffins were super easy and really delicious. And just being able to...

Re: Medical Marijuana

Thank you Yawny for posting that update. I wasn't sure how much you'd want me to disclose about you helping me. Probably asking you would have been the way to go. You have been a godsend to me and your help has been invaluable.
