YES!! I have seen amazing things with acupuncture. Even if it doesn't fix what ever is going on it increases the hormones in the body that give a sense of well being

Good evening Lodge (or after noon pink pony man)!

I took my niece for a spa day this afternoon and the masseuse definitely noticed inflammation around the ankle joint. She put CBD oil on it. les - any thoughts on that? I bought some because I did feel a difference after she put it on. Have any of you ever used it for anything?

I just went to a CEU thing on Opioids and Cannabis. Scared the crap outta me with stuff about all the adulterated products because they are unregulated. Medically haven't seen evidenced based research that has come out favorable. Anecdotally people have been helped

The unregulated part scares me. Also see: the vaping, and how that is turning out.

I'd have to imagine that it will soon be regulated (relatively soon, anyways). Then I'll re-examine that stuff.

They did a thing on vaping too- this guy was so knowledgeable and was up on all the latest stuff being published. It is not from the vitamin E. It is because the THC is lipoid and when you inhale it into the lungs the body has a nasty reaction to it.

I'd have to imagine that things like that will take a hard turn when it's regulated. At least I sorta know what I'm smoking when I have a traditional cig. ;)

The guy doesn't think regulation will happen soon and I would agree. They are so busy waffling, threatening and otherwise contradicting each other. In order for it to be regulated they would need to have some sort of idea about what the requirements would be and then there would be all sorts of money that needed to be spent to get things approved. Logically, looking medical evidence, everyone should want regulation. THe people who want money do not care about that and their lobbyists are very strong.

It'll prob be banned. Or sued out of existence. I could see that.

To continue on a different, but related front, I'm curious about acupuncture, always have been, but I *ing hate needles.

Interesting feedback. I really appreciate your POV on it. I assumed since it appears to be in the mainstream there was favorable research. I know two people that use it and swear by it. I was open to it when she offered to apply it because I’m super frustrated with this pain and noticed a difference. I’m going to continue to apply it for the week and then discuss with my doctor. He may tell me to stop. I am also going to discuss going to acupuncture.

ME: Hey, you know that email that you sent to 30 people about winning this prize that included an embedded link to my email address? My name is spelled wrong. Worried their emails won't get to me.
INT COMMS PERSON (leading this initiative): Ugh. I just copied from the email below (Narrator: Her name in the email trail below was correct)
ME: Oh wait, I got some responses. I guess the actual email was correct, just the spelling of my last name was incorrect.

IM from international employee - I got an undeliverable message when I tried to email
ME: Here is my actual email address or you can find me in Outlook
(Narrator: International employee successfully sent the email.)

ME: Hey INT COMMS person, as it turns out, my email address was actually spelled incorrectly.
INT COMMS person: *crickets*

Would it hurt to actually say OMG I'm sorry! Even though I've worked closely with you I apologize for not paying attention to the correct spelling of your name which I needed to have you help with my program. :rolleyes:

Scarlet,
Having a short last name won't necessarily help, My name has been spelled Bear many, many times. And many Starbucks employees think that my first name is Rafe.

I had kids who loved how it helped them. Screamed bloody murder for shots but liked to go to accupuncture

No one could spell my maiden name. I married a french-canadien in canuck land and they can't spell either of them.

The owner of the GPL site has had his name misspelled at least a half-dozen ways at Wendy's. He decided to make a thread about it on FB. Crag, Chrig, Gorag (that one was classic!), Crage was in there, I think...

Hilarity.
