Health - Marijuana for pain

[Rainbowzz]

SWIm wants to know what seems to be the optimal dose(in joints or parts thereof - for example half a joint/a few puffs/several joints ect for dealing with pain from pain conditions such as fibromyalgia. Does any SWIY's use marijuana for dealing with fibro? SWIM does, and usually is able to keep it under control with about half a joint every few hours. SWIM doesnt like to smoke more than that because SWIM just becomes lethargic and unmotivated. SWIM is also trying to conquer a codeine addiction however and is wondering if maybe upping the cannabis a little bit may be worthwhile as SWIM is experiencing breakthrough pain.

SWIM also would like to know if eating would be better than smoking in this case, as someone said that for pain you gain better releif through eating. SWIM is nervous of eating as she doesnt know the ratio of how much to eat to gain pain releif without becoming stupidly stoned/have a body stone going on.
