@lisash I'm so sorry to hear you are in such pain! Have you sought out an area hospital's Pain Center/Pain Clinic? I got 0 help for excruciating back pain from my PCP but choosing to see an anesthesiologist affiliated with a large teaching hospital made all the difference.

May I ask: How many drops of CBD do you do, and did you start with one drop and go up from there? It makes you 'punchy'? Like marijuana makes people high? I'm considering trying just one drop - scary for me - I had a bad reaction to pot when I tried it in college (in the 70's, statute of limitations is up). The pain in my feet is breaking through the lyrica and gabapentin and I'm at maximum doses of those; I don't want narcotics or anything that might make me sleepy, so, the pain doc and I are discussing the options. I'm okay with 1/2 of a Tramadol, nothing else I've tried works. Peggy

@pfbacon CBD drops are an utter life saver for my severe foot neuropathy. Gabapentin, very high dose, did nothing to help. I take a dropper full of CBD oil and hold it under my tongue for about 30 seconds. Utterly fantastic stuff. Also, the best, a CBD salve on my feet. Amazing stuff, but only lasts an hour or so, so I need to reapply. If you want the names of the companies I buy from, let me know. I buy right on line, from two different companies. The one that makes the drops is third party tested, and the company has won awards. The oil I buy only contains .03% or less THC, so you absolutely do not get high. Let me know if you want info. Good luck, Lori Renee

Thank for the feed back...any info. Will help me. I have a hard time describing my pain. Also finding time for me. As I am a care giver, and i am last.
Family will be taking care of me soon as I'm ready to give up. Not knowing where to go after my last 2 attempts at professional help. Will go look into that shortly before today is through.
Again. Thank you

Pain. I'm in so much pain I am ready to give up. Stinging in my finger is so bad it brings me to tears. It radiates to my other fingers and now also into my hand. Been dealing with it for years. Every doctor has done or said not one thing helpful. My husband got me a tiny shocker deviselike $$25.00. Last week we got CBD oil (no help) $$35.00 too late. I have wrapped it. I get massages (free) but possibly more damaging from my husband. My quality of life hmmm

@lisash I found a CBD that I like it is tea . CBDtea from Barr catalogue which is a Cayce product . I use the oil and tea but like the tea it works really fast in the system.

This is a very interesting topic to me also as I am beginning to deal with fairly extensive feet pain, especially in one foot and I am not excited about the thoughts of the Lyrica, Gabapentin route. I cannot use CBD with THC as I am drug tested at work, but is there any effectiveness known for CBE oil or balm without it?

@migzii I use the CBD cream or balm and rub it in the sore spots and I do get relieve from it . I also use the CBD tea I really like it and get immediate relieve .

@migzii No it doesn't have THC in it as I tried that once and had a headache every time I used it , so I just use the CBD . I get it from Barr catalogue. This is a Edgar Cayce catalogue . I really like the almost instant relieve I get from the tea in fact I need to order some more . You can go online I think to order it Edgar Cayce.org look for the catalogue
