@lillee, @pa58, Good morning. I regret that you are still uncomfortable and tormented by chronic pain. Because I have been fighting the battle for a few years, I have had a chance to experiment with many forms and dosages of Cannabis. For me, it is without a match for controlling pain and giving you the freedom to enjoy the sunshine and watch the birds at the feeder. I know that there is a lot of hype and holler about CBD oil. What you may have chosen is hemp seed oil. Unfortunately, it doesn't have enough cannabidiol to relieve pain. The real and genuine CBD is from the flowers and leaves of the cannabis plant. Just make sure that your dispensary is stocking the correct products. I would hesitate to purchase online....without a referral from someone with product knowledge. You may also be purchasing total CBD without any THC. I have found that my best results for pain submission are 2:1 (CBD/THC) and 1:1 (CBD/THC). THC activates the CBD and gives you some mental relaxation that comes pain relief. You may want to do a little more research. Here is a link that explains some of the differences between hemp oil and CBD oil. I don't want you to waste your $$$$. https://honestmarijuana.com/hemp-oil-vs-cbd-oil/ . Be safe and free of suffering today. Chris
