cbd oil for tremors

Posted by swampyshores @swampyshores, Feb 16, 2019

Hi,

I am getting results with cbd oil for tremor. I didn't notice a difference until I upped my dosage to 62 mg twice a day. I still have quite a tremor and not sure how long I should stay at each dose before increasing. any thoughts?

Hi, @swampyshores - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I can understand that you would want to see if you could get the tremor under good control.

Will you share more about how long you've had the tremor, and what your diagnosis is?

I am 67. Tremor first started 20 years ago. Benign Essential Tremor diagnosed by neurologist. I've had a brain scan. Tried all kinds of supplements prescribed by MD specializing in biochemistry of body, naturopaths, nutrionist. Tried acupuncture. The only things that work are a 30 mg dose of propranolol or at least 31 mg CBD oil 2x a day. I notice my handwriting is very good after the first dose. However, it seems to wear off during the day.

Hello. Could you please share information on what type of CBD oil you are using. I am new to this and all information on web is very confusing. Is it hemp CBD oil, how strong? Any side effects? Thank you.

I started using cbd for pain and it has helped my tremors a lot. I use a1000 mg tincture from a cbd store in Birmingham, Alabama. I am not aware of side effects. I can't tell that I have taken it. I put a .5 ml drop under my tongue twice daily.

Can you post the website for CBD store or brand that you use? I saw a post of someone who does 750mg, I buy my dad's CBD from a company in Colorado and it costs $150 for a bottle of 1800mg. My dad can't afford to do 750mg that would be $75 per dose, I wish the price of CBD went down.
