Anyone tried CBD oil or medical marijuana for PMR?

I'm sorry you had a bad day. When my PMR was active, my PCP suggested trying CBD products. I took his advice and purchased some oil and also the gummies, but I did not get the least bit of relief from using them. The only thing that relieved my pain was prednisone. I hope you are feeling better soon.

I've been taking CBD oil since 2018 which always helped my regular pain, but it did nothing for PMR pain, in fact, it does not mix well with Prednisone and I can only injest a wee bit as it tends to make me really spacey (which it never did) and saying stupid things. Prednisone has brought my pain down 100%. The side effects are a trade-off but willing to accept them. Returning to work on Monday, part-time, after 6 months. I think I will not need another bottle of CBD for quite some time.
