Would cannabis for sleep be less harmful than something like zopiclone (which also seems to reduce REM) every night? Are there any strains/types that would not reduce REM?

Thank you for all the good information in this session. Much appreciated.

Living in Vancouver, the product is widely available, and in fact usage is condoned by my pain specialist.
The problem is that what I think we need or I need is a dispensing pharmacist / doctor relationship, where I am not just winging it as far as trying product. I don't like feeling high. I just want to contend with pain with something less toxic than opiates, which I have radically cut down on.
Have had chronic pain for several decades. (DDD, arthritis, cervical neck degeneration issues mostly) Is there anywhere that actually gives that kind of advice, or are we left to research and trial/error? Can you envision something like that happening if it is legalized in Canada? Where you can get advice on your Rx as you would with a prescription drug?
