Very good advice. ALWAYS get the prescription filled before surgery since you are always sent home 5 hrs. after your last pain pill. Never fails. And great advice for medicinal CBD/THC. You can get ointment to put on your foot, pills, tincture for under your tongue. Do you have a friend with a medical MJ card? The local businesses who are selling CBD oil are selling very very low mg. oil which is really a waste of money. Must get it from one of the three clinics here in TV. For pain the dose is 1:4, one part CBD to 4 parts THC. Why do I know all of this? I have a friend who has suffered for a decade with severe back pain and the only relief for my friend has been CBD/THC medicinal MJ. Good luck. It sounds like your surgery will be quite extensive.
