Its too early to tell.

I've been trying to get her to try Cannabis as a medicine.

She too, can't seem to get over the stigma of 'smoking' or even the taboo of using Marijuana.

She is definatly becoming more open as the days go on, though.
One day I'm confident She'll try it, and it will work wonders.

She is intolerable to conventional opiate painkillers. Attemped Vicodin, Percocet... Even a short trial of OxyCodone. Alas, nothing works.

Fibromyalgia is a hell of an illness. As im sure lupus is aswell.
Best of luck, my friend.
When I heard my grandfathers glaucoma medication wasn't working, I called his doctor and asked what his stance was on using marijuana as a treatment for glaucoma when conventional therapies fail, and he said his next move might have been recommending that (grandfather lives in CA). So now my grandfather uses marijuana everyday medicinally, and he says it's helping much better than any medication he has tried before.
