He high lights Blueberry and Bubble Gum for pain relief form Fibromyalgia.
Check out the list, I've used Indicas in the past for when my MS Contin prescription runs out and I can't get a new 'script. OG Kush seems to be best for my post-op vertebra fusion after ruptured L4 and L5 disks.  Thank God for marijuana.

Wow, thats a pretty cool list. Amazing how different strands of marijuana can have specific effects on the body depending on the illness, if that thread it viable.
To be honest, I don't think anyone I know grows Blueberry or Bubble Gum cannabis. I'm going to put my trust in Maui Wowie for my relative with fibromyalgia and lupus though, and I'll get back to you on how it effects her.

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.

I'm sorry for your Grandmother man. Truly, I am.
One thing I am using to convince my relative that medical marijuana is a good option is the complex we have that because of her combined illnesses, she probably won't live longer than another 15 years. Maybe that could help with your granmother?
What I would say to both my relative and your grandmother: just smoke one joint, and if it doesn't help, you can at least say you tried. Your relative and mine are both getting on in years; how can one joint do any harm when it can possibly do all the healing?
