CBD oil for pain

Posted by timfitz @timfitz, Jul 19, 2016

After trying opiates, and lyrica, and mostly just suffering I tried sublingual CBD which is from the marijuana plant, but has no THC in it, you don't get high. It was very very effective. Not only did it reduce my pain at least 75%, it has a calming effect on the anxiety produced in those of us with chronic pain by the fact we have it. I do recommend it.... Be sure it is from a reliable source. You don't need to smoke anything or get high.

Hello, I am new to this site and look forward to a long and healthy relationship with the group. In reading some of the posts, I see where some of you have tried CBD and with very good results. I read a long article on it last night and it said it is legal in all 50 states. I would love to try it but I want to be sure that it comes from a reliable source, Can anyone tell me where I can get this product. I have chronic pain from back issues, abdominal hernias ( many repairs ) severe IBS, arthritis in back, legs, hips, both shoulders, and both hands. Right now I look 7 months pregnant due to numerous abdominal hernias. I am also borderline diabetic and take metformin with good results. thanks for reading my post. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

I'm in California, I have found that all CBD products have a very low amount like 1% of THC in them that you do not feel or even know is there.

I've tried sublingual CBD which had grape seed extract mixed in with it. I have rheumatoid arthritis as well as stenosis in the neck c3-c7 as well as a pinched nerve between c5-c6 and stenosis between l4-l5 in the lower back. The first time i tried it sublingual , 4 drops ,90 seconds under the tongue and then spit and rinse like crazy to get the ugly after taste out of my mouth. The stuff relieved most of my pain but the after taste was awful and i have GERD . I even treid the orange flavor and this was worst aftertaste. Is there any CBD out there that has no after taste when used sublingually? This is also made in capsule form and dissolves in the stomach, but since my fundoplication and hiatal hernia repair i am very reluctant to use the capsule. I am back on 1 - oxycodone for all my RA symptoms. If anyone knows of a tasteless CBD sublingual please let me know. The CBD does help with arthritis pain but does not really help with stenosis type nerve induces pain....kozlo52

I'm happy to but they're in Southern California. I don't know if they mail stuff out of state or not. That's over state lines and I don't know anything about the rules and regulations. They always just drop it off at my house. I do know you have to prove you have a license from your state. Had to go to a doctor to get the license and get them a copy or I couldn't buy anything from them. Could one of the monitors let me know if I can put that kind of information out here? Can I put my personal email here? I'm not really sure what the rules are I'm happy to give the information. Jennifer

My experience with Medical Marijuana over the last 2 years has been a journey. The industry is moving so fast and new products and processing techniques are being introduced almost daily. With chronic myofasical pain and small fiber neuropathy, I need to medicate frequently. Fighting depression is also a challenge and a small amount THC lifts the spirits just enough to promote a better outlook on life and everything in it. I have found the co2 derived vape oils are purer and eradicate the coughing I experienced with oils that have chemical contaminants.

These products are legal in Colorado but I think it's a felony in any other State to take them across the State line.

I travel (fly) frequently with an abundant supply of MM. Never had a problem. Always put it in my carry on, not in checked luggage.

I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by ...and?

Koslo52, I did just speak to the people that I buy from today. I wanted to place another order for oils and the CBD patches. I asked her specifically about the taste and she said it was due to how refined it was is and the quality of oils you were getting. You may have to call different supply houses and ask about it in your area. She said they absolutely cannot send anything over state lines.

She also told me as of next January 1, more regulations were going to go into effect on all the marijuana products are there at CBD's or THC's. That the states are going to start taxing them. Also I don't know if it's the feds and the states,but they are going to restrict the amount you can buy, and the dosage. If you're used to a specific dose that works they could reduce it and not let you buy that much. Im not sure if this is just California but it didn't sound like it. I didn't think to ask specifically if it was just one state, but this is a pretty liberal state. Basically the same kind of thing that they're doing with pain medications opioids. So yay, they're going to take away one more thing, or restricted at least. I really wish I understood what they expected people like us to do. That's the most information I can get for you. I hope that helps. Jennifer
