Shortly after my dad was diagnosed with arthritis, he started taking pot for the growing pains. Turns out even i can use it for muscle pulls and joint pains too. It works like a miracle. The pain almost goes away in minutes and the body feels so relaxed and free i could sleep for hours.

I cannot say that Girl Scout Cookies is not an ASTOUNDING strain. what i can say though is that try pacing yourself according to your tolerance. I once took too many puffs from my bong and ende dup with a blithering headache the say after.

Retrospectively, I once hated indica strains even when they were hybrids. This is because they have these sedative effect when the weed has worn off. Sometimes i WELCOME the sedative effects with open arms and other times I don't want them. This one has a nice balance, not too sedating and not too energizing.
