Posted by gfisher100 @gfisher100, Jun 2, 2018

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

@gfisher100 Good morning. I have been using some version of topical ointment with CBD oil for several years. Some work better than others. The only type that is very messy is anything with coconut oil. I am experimenting right now with a 3:1 THC to CBD. It is working very well on hands, wrists, and arms. I also use it on my Myofascial knee problem. I was doubtful at first because of the high concentration of THC. My patient counselor said that it has been delivering good results. Any of the medical marijuana products work better than the lidocaine compounds, for me.

A surgeon must implant it so your doctor has to give you a referral

Pain doctor puts 2 wires in your spine! Surgeon makes 2 inch incision on butt cheek Wires are pulled underneath skin to stimulator installed in the incision and stitched! Out patient procedure! I was scheduled for this one week before this virus hit! Now wait forever! My trial was successful

That is wonderful @wilcy. My mother in law was one of the first patients to have the procedure performed in Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. She could barely walk from the severe sciatic pain in both legs and was on strong pain medication. She had the procedure and after they turned the stimulator on, she could not believe the difference. They have now mentioned this to my husband. He has two bad knees and he is not a candidate for knee replacement due to multiple other health issues.

Sorry it didn’t work! The 3 day trial worked for me as soon as it was turned on! 80% effective! Now, getting permanent when virus is gone
