CBD oil for Neuropathy

This is Joan from Napa. I have pretty much every neuropathy around: peripheral; fibromyalgia: small fiber - plus myalgic encephalomyalitis. Add in a 9 level spinal fusion (lucky me - titanium rods broke! My body didn’t grow any support tissue around the fusion because I was on prednisone for other neuropathies - hence the break). So a second 9 level fusion that somehow left me with nerve damage, and I can’t walk more than 100 steps; can’t stand up unsupported more than 10 minutes; and have almost no balance. Permanent. But I had a wonderful active life as a dancer/choreographer/teacher for many decades, and have the best husband in the world, so I have more blessings than problems. But my feet hurt - a lot. Toes and bottoms and they feel like wooden blocks. Would plain CBD oil help, applied externally? I take it from a dropper for anxiety tummy and it really helps. But nothing has helped my foot pain as yet. It’s always there, but episodically becomes unbearable and stabbing. Help!

Maybe try Bio-Freeze gel and rub it in on your feet, helps me a lot. Treetop

Good evening @joan5678. What an amazing career! I had two artists in my gallery that had been dancers in their younger days. They were able to transfer their artistic talent to clay and glass. I want to accomplish two tasks in this post. The first is to introduce you to @jenniferhunter. She has knowledge of spine surgery and fusions. I am sorry that prednisone left you without support tissue.

And now to your question about CBD oil for your "wooden blocks". I know exactly what that means. My feet have a leather-like feel even on their good days. My solutions are these: 1) a 1:3 CBD/THC balm from Papa and Barkley helps me. You can research options at:

2) MFR, myofascial release therapy so that those feet don't prohibit driving. Here is a link to the Connect site:
