Hi, @peggyn - you may have noticed I moved your post to this existing CBD oil for pain discussion. I did this so you can connect with others also interested in this topic. Simply click VIEW & REPLY in your email notification to get to your post.

Sounds like this is something you've already started for your pain, but you are not getting the results you anticipated? Will you share about how much/when you've taken it thus far?

@peggyn If you have chronic pain it is helpful to use it everyday. I told my internist about it and put it on my list of meds.You do not have to build it up. Used correctly it begins working in 15 minutes.It is important to use it correctly and the oil seems the best.It is pure hemp oil from an American farm that i am using. It is only sold at drugstores. You need to know what you are using the same way you would look for any supplement and check the source. Pure Hemp oil tastes yucky, I wouldn't mix it with food I mix it with a teaspoon or two of fruit juice. Food would slow down the response time. I mistyped the dose in my other post: i purchased a 1000ml bottle of pure hemp oil and you use one dropper full which supplies 20 mg of oil. That is a dose.I paid $140, but 1000ml lasts a long time. If you are diabetic watch your glucose carefully. Drink plenty of fluids.Tell your regular doctor that you are using it. This is a a natural substance ,comparable to using aspirin or turmeric. Don't expect a sudden jolt of pain relief. It offers a subtle, gentle soothing of pain when used correctly. I have no information of how it would affect a type 1 diabetic. I am a type II. Any type 1 diabetic needs to speak with their doctor before using this.

Sometimes it's not strong enough depending on your level of pain. I recent tried Pinnacle Hemp for the 1200mg. It works well though I am sleepy after taking it. So I only take it in the evening.
