I tried CBD about three years ago for chronic pain. It was not effective. No difference in pain levels.

I tried a good quality CBD oil for sleep recently and it made my PN sensations. worse. Felt pretty awful in the night. But I also have ME/CFS.

Be careful using CBD, it can impact the effectiveness of your other medications. I use Lamictal and Trileptal for seizures, CBD increases the effectiveness of one and decreases the effectiveness of the other. It's not the end all, be all drug it's being promoted as.

I've tried CBD oil for a variety of things. Has had NO EFFECT on anything. Other than possible placebo effects, think this stuff is the latest snake oil, along with Lion's Mane Mushrooms

I have used topical CBD oil and cream to relieve back pain, but I'm not sure how valuable it would be for neuropathy. For back pain it cuts it down by about 40-50 percent, so it's easier to manage. Good luck to everyone.

My orthopedic doctor prescribed medical CBD (it’s only available with doctors code). My doctor just completed a second TKR on July 30 and I’m 81. CBD is not a miracle drug but it does seem to complement my over all wellbeing. Each of use are uniquely and wonderfully made.
Blessings to all.
