I too have multiple fusions (C3-T1 & L2-S1). I visit a pain mgmt. doc for epidural injections, take Gabapentin (600mg 2x/day), Diclofenac Pot. 50mg (2x/day), Cymbalta (90mg/day)... & still always need to deal with pain & neuropathy.
I'm in day 4 of dosing CBD (I'm currently at 1mg oil (around 10mg CBD) 2X/day. I believe I'm feeling better in my lumbar (cervical spine isn't sore, just lacks ROM), I'm hoping it's not placebo effect!
I've decarboxylated & infused my own CBD (what a pain!!!), I've tried commercial oils, but it's just so dad-blasted expensive! I believe that I never gave myself enough because of the cost.
It's believed (by me & the pain mgmt Doc) that I'm having problems with adjacent Segment Disease, at L1 & my SI Joints. Injections in both SI joints & T12-L1 have helped greatly.
@jonc59 I take 100mg CBD and 15mg THC 4x day to relieve my breakthrough pain. My tincture bottle contains 6,000mg /60cc CBD and 1cc=100mg $89.00. You should consider increasing your dosing if you’re able. I decarboxylate too using a mason jar in the oven and I have no mess or smells using this method. I do not infuse nor would I care too.
