This is always such a personal topic, it seems. I don't know that White Widow, and other indica-dominants, won't be the best way to continue going. I've always had better pain-relief with the indica side, myself.

I've heard others say sativas. It hasn't been that way for me but that's the great thing about cannabis as medicine, once you find what works for you, the sense of well-being often exceeds that provided by prescriptions and OTCs.

Indica strains are the way to go. Hindu Kush has good taste, isn't too strong and is sold in the Grey Area and Club Media.

get some blue cheese from the bluebird, and some Top Dawg from Amnesia, mix up a big phat pure joint and you wont feel a thing

Take this advice man, most strong indicas will help your pain and increase your abilty to get a pain free kip.

I agree that the type of herb should be indica but with a lot of people it does tend to be a knock out smoke. A heavy indica should help with the pain but doubt it will make her brighteyed and bushytailed. :lol: I really hope you find something that works well for her pain. Peace.

Get yourself to 420/De Kuil buy a gram of the Blueberry (or whatever Indica looks the best) and get the budtender to vape some in the Volcano, job done.
