Tempted to purchase something like that. My poor lungs can't really do smoke though....I've been sticking to a vape for years now.

Talk to your doc about edibles. I tried mine last weekend. Half of 10mg gummie, and oh my lord was that long lasting....

I got a script for gummies too, but wanted flower first. I have done edibles before and do enjoy them, but they can be dangerous cause they creep up like nothing else.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I've got a flower script too, Sativa. I hadn't smoked in over 10 years, so my first use with the medicated flower smacked me right in the face, hard. Had way way way too much because I was going on what I used to do with joints back in the day. Turns out a very small pinch in the vape canister is enough for me. Either I have no tolerance, or it's because what I used to smoke was backyard trash. It's been a great switch for me though. I've been sober 6 months now, and the occasional herbal dip helps to keep those urges at bay. It's expensive, but I would highly recommend the Mighty Medic vaporiser unless you're already sorted on that front.
