CBD Oil
Has anyone tried this for pain? My daughter-in-law is waiting for steroid injections as she has 2 buldging disks in her back and a torn ligament. Her doctors prescribed Tylenol and Tylenol 3. Did not work. CBD Oil has made a difference. She swears by it! Anyone else tried it?

Collen thanks for reminding all of us to be wary of a member posting about a product that they are selling. Those of us which are suffering are easy targets, desperate for relief. Now my warning bells go off when someone says they have a cream they make or sell that "cures" eczema. As you mentioned eczema is chronic, meaning no cure. Before I would have joined the CBD site recommended by krupalabs I would have researched and then ordered on line independently, as I already checked out and found it was for sale at many sites and this way I could experiment on myself without a commitment. If I liked it, and joining the club required no up front payment or monthly fee I may have considered joining. Yes it did worry me that krupalabs asked us to contact him personally for more info, inferring he stood to gain financially.
I have had members on the Inspire eczema website approach me as friends, which I can allow or not, then solicit to get me involved into a paying a monthly fee for a product guaranteed to relieve eczema, this monthly fee comes out of ones checking account, even if you don't buy any products that month! This product was all based on melaleuca oil, which, after my research learned it can be purchased for a nominal price at Wal-Mart in which it is bottled under the name of Tea Tree Oil (melaleuca oil and tea tree oil are the same) but of course their expensive oil was stated to be magical. Yes, more warning bells. We all need to research before we jump in. I also reported this solicitation to the Inspire website and this person's postings were blocked. I had given my phone number to this "friend" who seemed very sincere and friendly and full testimony about how her daughter and other's no longer suffered from eczema and after I told her I wasn't interested in a club program and asked for a sample to pay for without joining the club she said was not allowed. Her calls continued and was forced to block her calls on my cell phone. I recommend products based on my personal experience which are all available to the general public or with a doctors prescription with no personal gain for myself, other than the happiness I feel from helping others. Now on Inspire I only become friends with members that have posted for years and have never solicited.

I tried CBD cream and it did not work for me. I also tried acupuncture and while that relaxed me it didn’t get rid of my pain. I’m now starting with facet injections and then a nerve ablation.
How much mg taken ?.
It would be helpful if there were clear guidelines. Perhaps I am getting no postive results it's because my dose is too small. The only answer I have even gotten to your question about dosage from the maker of the CBD oil is that it is individual and to start with a smaller dose and then keep adding more. Also that it must be taken daily and may take weeks before any change is noted. Also if you skip a dose it puts you behind.
What is the recommend cbd brand to buy? I am very interested as well
There are dozens of brands and dosages. Pick one, ask the dispensary or vape shop or wherever where you are purchasing what a good quality brand that sells the most.. If you like, great, if not, try another. However, they are expensive there are some CBD products that will come in various dosages depending on your pain level. Hope this helps. This goes for salves/balms, tinctures, flowers, edibles...
