CBD oil for Neuropathy

I have PN in my feet. CBD oil did nothing. I don't think it penetrated to the nerves in order to work. Medical marijuana just gets you stoned and doesn't work on neuropathy. Why should any combination work?? First of all, don't smoke it because it can have negative affect on your lungs. Second, even when I tried a combination of THC and CBD, I realized why I stopped smoking pot 50+ years ago.

And BTW, I think whenever we are mentioning a solution for pain and somebody recommends a brand or a website, I get suspicious that there is a financial incentive to advertise a certain brand. Be careful.

I might as well start out with, "Everybody is Different". I know that is not a surprise, but I just want to ease into my experiences with Cannabis after that last read.
My feet started bothering me in the 70's. I tried all kids and names of sneakers. At first I thought I might have to wear "Clinic Shoes" for the rest of my life. (At that time, most of the Nurses wore them and they were always white.) With my Outside Sales work, I could NOT get away with sneakers in a suit. Fast forward to many, many foot doctors, failed surgeries and finally a diagnosis in 2016 for Peripheral Neuropathy. I was prescribed Cannabis. Here is where the real test was to find the the correct Medical CBD. I won't smoke it, I have no desire to get "high". There are so many strengths, kinds, forms, and it was expensive and time consuming to find the "right" pain "reducer" for me. Months and months later, I finally found something that takes about !/3 to 1/2 the pain away, with not a hint of "high". It's a small capsule I take every morning. I also use THC ointment, but only for my feet at night and in the morning. It cuts the pain, and my pain is quite severe. I am grateful that my state makes these products available. Nothing else has come close to easing my foot pain. It's expensive and a "bother", but it works for me!
