Hello,
Here's something I found:
"While the Mayo Clinic does not provide specific recommendations for cannabis use in large fiber peripheral neuropathy, Mayo Clinic's website does acknowledge potential benefits for reducing pain, muscle spasms, and seizures in some cases, including those related to peripheral neuropathy. However, they also emphasize the need for caution, citing potential cognitive impairment and the importance of consulting with a healthcare provider before using cannabis".
Before using anything for peripheral neuropathy, a discussion with your doctor is highly encouraged.
Best wishes and take care,

I have not but have chronic pain and neuropathy. I also have spinal stenosis/degenerative disc disease/myelopathy.
I have tried other things for pain because I do not want to smoke anything or use cannabis products because I do not trust what is in it. There are risks to using cannabis.
Depending of the type of pain you have and where it is, NSAIDs, Tylenol, lidocaine pain creams/patches, Voltaren gel, ice/heat, steroid spinal injections, massage, dry needling, acupuncture, compression socks, alpha Lipoic acid/acetyl l carnitine/magnesium supplements, diet/lower carbs/weight loss, surgery, etc. have helped me.
I have watched some one close to me have great success microdosing Cannabus. He has neuropathy much worse than I do and it has been the only thing that really helps make the leg twitches stop. The main problem is the state we are living in has declared war on all hemp products and medical use has litle exhemptions. So how it will go, who knows.

Thank you for your reply. I would also like to know how he used it meaning smoke, inhaler, gummie, etc.
I had to get a medical Marijuana card which is unbelievably easy.

Thanks Gus, I read the same. Am hoping to hear from someone who has tried it.
I have used it. Helps some. I think frankincense helps the most for me.
If it helped, why did you discontinue?
Do you use straight frankincense on your skin?
Yes. On my left knee took pain away.

Gummies mostly. Home made so as to have control over them. He got the cannabus from a dispensary which continued existance is questionable.
