Has anyone used CBD oil or anything similar for use in relieving Neuropathy?

Hi Lori Renee, you may want to try actual capsules versus gummies. Green Roads gummies that I’ve tried tend to be either 5mg or 10mg CBD products. The capsules are available as a 25mg dose. Again, you’d have to try it and see what works for you. The main side effect I’ve felt is drowsiness. So, I only take capsules before bedtime. Living with chronic pain is not easy. Good luck on your journey, to a life with less pain.

Made contact with this green roads. Would sound one cautionary note, As you noted one needs to try any number of options to find what works for each of us. Most places encourage this trial and error process by allowing for a money back guarantee for products that do not help alleviate our pain. This green roads place allows for money back returns only for unopened/unused items that you bought from them This does not really allow for much trial and error on our part to find that once in a lifetime product that provides any amount of relief.for us.

I’ve been experimenting with both CBD oil and ointments, which help temporarily in my back, hips and legs. Also I find that putting a half a dropper of CBD oil under my tongue at night really helps me sleep soundly. I’m a maniac about sleep because fatigue is probably, second only to pain, the most debilitating effect of PN and my other neuromuscular problems.
A final point...if you are experimenting with CBD just be sure you source really high quality CBD or any supplements. Otherwise you won’t get the full benefits of them.

What strength of cbd oil are you using ?? I8ve been taking 1/4 dropper 2 times a day, but not sure about what it's doing. Where are you getting yours??

If I may intrude, please. I am using CBD Isolate powder (97% pure) mixed at the rate of four grams dissolved in 96 milliliters of hemp oil, therefore 4% CBD hemp oil. I take two drops under my tongue morning and night and am sleeping much better with the vicious cramps caused by CIPN reduced by over 90%. I am in Australia.

In Palm Springs Ca at a local dispensary. Can’t remember the name but can track it down if you want it.

Thanks for the reply. I haven't seen any mention of the ointment before. As I am not a fan of swallowing medicine, this interested me as I will rub on medicine.

Yes, I have been using it for about 4 months. It does seem to give me some relief. The attacks I get in the evening don't seem as intense. I take it orally a squirt under the tongue in the morning and at night. Perhaps the topical is better I just have not tried that.....Here in St Louis MO. The Post Dispatch paper had adds for stem cell treatments for various problems and one day they ran the add for peripheral neuropathy. I showed it to my doctor and he was going to consult another doctor that might be familiar with that area but so far I have not heard back. Does anyone know about this ? Thanks Jerry
