CBD oil for pain
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.

How often do you use it and at what strength to you get the best relief? 500iu or 1500 in It is legal in my state.
I also would like to hear a professional's opinion.
Stevia or Indigo for pain during the day (fribromyalgia & chronic pain syndrome) how much and how often.
Which to take at night (sleep disorder) and how much?
My doctors here are fine with me getting my card but have absolutely no clue as how to use it.
I will be taking medical marijuana from a dispensary. I went to the dispensary in my town and no one working there had a clue other than daytime night time. Very difficult to find a starting place for pain and sleep. I keep hearing "Start low and go slow".
Will this help with pain and anxiety during the day and sleep at night? How is this different from regular CBD? What potincy is the CBD from hemp? Any and all information appreciated.
If you're not familiar with pot you're in for an education. Do not smoke it. Spend the big bucks and buy the expensive personal vaporizer, three to four hundred dollars. Use it on the lowest setting that it has and take very small doses in the beginning. You will build a tolerance very quickly but if you go to quickly with this vaporizing thing you're going to scare your pants off especially if you're not familiar with marijuana and even if you are familiar with marijuana this is not the marijuana of the 60s and 70s it's not even the marijuana of the 80s and 90s and 2000's. Vaporizing is a whole new game. You can get the equivalent of a whole joint in one small Puff. It may not take your pain away but it'll give you something else to think about, like how much money you're blowing on it. Good luck have fun, love and blessings

1 ReactionYou wan to get the Indica.....I use the Indica tincture mix for sleep and pain.....during the day I use just CBD tincture, if there is a latge % of any THC in it I can't tolerate it.....Indica is calming and staiva is more for depression.....I tired an equal amount of THC and he CBD oil but that was not for me. Those at the dispensary say that smoking the cannabis effects the pain the fastest. I tried it one day and really did not want to smoke it again...the tincture's are the best for me even the Indica edibles worked well for sleep and pain. And, although it's medical , insurance does not cover it and it is very expensive especially when trying to find out what works best. It's a cash business, no credit or debit cards, strictly cash.
I also have fibromyalgia and the indica tincture at night works wonders......I take half of the dropper , if I wake and feel any pain I will take a little more.....the CBD 100 % tincutre is normally during the day, I take 2 sprays and I'm good but I still use the CBD spray on my knee..You really have to try different amounts and just like pres. meds you have to see what works for you.
I find it confusing when people use the term CBD oil. Do they mean from hemp or marijuana? I am using hemp which I have heard is more effective. I started with 500 but now am at 750 , 10 drops twice a day. Calming, helpfup for pain.
I'm scared to death of it - I had a very bad reaction (vertigo, blinding headache, fever blisters) when I tried marijuana in the 1970's; it happened again when I tried hash; I was on the floor for 2 hours scared that I was dying. People have told me that this new CBD stuff doesn't have THC but I don't know whether it was the THC or something else that made me so ill. Peggy
@pfbacon I just tried a week on CBD it had 0.03% THC in it Had a low grade headache the whole time so went it back for a refund Also have cream ,same thing so no more
