Hi there! I suffer from fibromyalgia and chronic nausea which cannabis helps a lot. I smoke regularly and also use edibles. I find that the edibles help my body more than smoking does, but when I'm having severe nausea smoking is the fastest way and it works. I would try going to your local dispo and buy some edibles or RSO. Try it in small amounts first then work up to where you feel the best body high for you.

Does smoking help take your nausea away completely? Or is it just not as bad? I have severe nausea too & i currently use SeaBands & they take the nausea away some, but not completely.

I’m a daily cannabis user with my medical card, and I swear by it to help me not only with nausea but also increasing my appetite (which is helpful when you’re on medication that suppresses it, like I am). Just be careful you don’t overdo it and “green out,” because then that makes the nausea 10x worse!

Just curious, do any of you know whether consistency with cbd matters (e.g. having a little every day)?
