This strain is right there with Grape God. I have pain, I don't need to feel f*cked up, I need relief. The first time I tried Purple Arrow I had nerve pains shooting down my neck into my upper back. After the first drag the pain was gone, and I could still function at about 90%. Everything else I've tried hits so fricking hard I can't even think. With G.G. or P.A. I can spend time enjoying the smoking aspect of medicating and still make it back into the house to help out in the kitchen. I gave the strength rating of 9 because it kicked the shit out of my pain, not by how buzzed I got.

After back and neck surgeries, I was declared disabled. I had been on hydrocodone for a bunch of years and then switched to morphine. In addition I was on muscle relaxers and gabapentin. I realized I was/had turned into a zombie. It was recommended that I try marijuana for pain management instead of the pharma I was taking. Having worked with Purple Arrow for the pain for approximately three months I am off the morphine, muscle relaxers and the gabapentin. Purple Arrow is a life saver for me. No wonder big pharm wants this kept on the back burner. I now spend way less on PW that what I was spending on the pharma.

Do you have pain? Depression? don't worry, Purple Arrow has got your back. Migraines? Fatigue? Stomach cramps or nausea? GONE This is truly a FIVE star strain! it immediately knocks out my pain and leaves me feeling very clear headed, happy, and ready to go. This strain has quickly become my go-to strain in my medicine cabinet.

I had heard that for pain and restlessness this strain would work magic, and it did. After three hits I was so chill I could barely keep my eyes open. I just sat on the couch playing video games until I passed out. Very opiate feeling. My head was in the clouds and my body was feeling no pain. I have sciatica in my right hip and I am recovering from back surgery and I can honestly say Purple Arrow did the trick for my pain. Also as a side note, I slept the entire night through, without waking up. I felt a little hungover when I did wake up but now I feel just fine. I wouldn't recommend smoking this and then driving anywhere. Smoke it when you are home and comfortable.

Another staple in the medicine cabinet that works great for pain and nausea. Grounded PA has a pungent strong herbal odor, vaped it has a sweet pine taste with a little berry after taste. I prefer vaporizing this med in the evening and before bed. It has a nice even body high that quickly resolves pain issues and relaxes enough for sleep or light tasks.

My strains for pain so far: 1. Purple Arrow - Like it's name suggests it targets pain very quickly, and you can still mow the lawn or paint a portrait immediately after medicating. No real plateau, and no need to smoke into oblivion. Slightly lower in THC than most strains these days, and that's fine with me. Also very productive. 2. East Coast Sour Diesel - Great to toke when drinking your morning coffee and reading the news (back pain free). A very CLEAR high. Watch out, though. This high has no plateau, and you will be too high to function on anything other than vedging out if you smoke too much. 3. Hell's OG (f.k.a. Hell's Angel OG) - The best "knock you out" strain pretty much ever. Great for killing pain but get ready to CRAWL into bed or lay on the couch shortly after. Too much of this strain will first put you into an almost LSD-like psychedelic high. Great for sleepless PTSD after the first 15-20 minutes. If you suffer from Pain/Insomnia/PTSD this is the greatest stuff ever. 4. Trainwreck - Also great for pain, but first 20 minutes is pure psychedelia before targeting pain and slowing down to a more Indica-type high. Will also put you to sleep after about 90 minutes. I would live happy with a lifetime supply of these 4 herbs. No specific order except for PA which I consider Pain Enemy #1. 5. Gorilla Glue - Great smoke, great high. Might put you to sleep after 90 minutes or so. I almost left this out just because there are better strains for pain out there. But also, a good pain strain, and also good for insomnia. Just my $0.02...

this is the new generation of medicinal cannabis strains. extremely potent when grown in the absolute conditions. the potent shotgun start really motivated my day with a strong happy uplifted yet con tent feeling. safe to say this medication is the new age dominant potent strain.
