Aching legs from Small Fiber Neuropathy
Neuropathy | Last Active: Dec 1, 2023 | Replies (140)Comment receiving replies
I was diagnosed with idiopathic SFN two years ago. My legs are currently achy, heavy, and tired feeling. My feet are dumb but not completely so. I find that a warm bath in the evening helps along with a topical spray called "That Stuff for Pain". I use it in the evenings when my symptoms are a little more pronounced. Going on walks during the day is also effective. I thought that I would try some CBD topical cream. Just bought one that is 500 mg THC and 25 mg CBD. Fingers crossed....

Good evening @dck. Thanks for sharing on connect. I also have achy, heavy legs in the morning. I do find that an Aveeno Bath is soothing for my entire body. I love walking and do some stretchy yoga when my cranky knee permits it.
I am a little concerned about your CBD topical. I have been using medical cannabis for about 7 years. I have never heard of a 500/25 combination of THC and CBD. Are you sure? That is 20 to 1. THC to CBD. As far as I can go is a 1:3 CBD to THC. Please check for me so I don't worry about you.
May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris
