Hi JennaL,
I smoke marijuana as needed for sleep and discomfort. I smoke indica for sleep; I occasionally use a THC dominant CBD salve for body aches. It works pretty well and delivers about 40-60 minutes relief from pain. For night waking, MJ is my remedy and it is the only one that works for me. In case you’re worried about lung damage, I had some breathing difficulty a few years back. My pulmonologist had no problem with me smoking as I filter the MJ through water. And I aced all the breathing tests. Good luck! Do what feels right for You, helps You.
