CBD oil for pain
After trying opiates, and lyrica, and mostly just suffering I tried sublingual CBD which is from the marijuana plant, but has no THC in it, you don't get high. It was very very effective. Not only did it reduce my pain at least 75%, it has a calming effect on the anxiety produced in those of us with chronic pain by the fact we have it. I do recommend it.... Be sure it is from a reliable source. You don't need to smoke anything or get high.

That's too bad . My cardiologist's daughter is on medical cannabis for headaches. But, like prescription meds everyone reacts differently. I have had a headache for quite a while but it's Tinnitus , another problem that many seniors face, no cure and they haven'e a clue how it starts. Tinnitus comes and goes. Ugh !
@hazelnut Goodmorning Betty I have had Tinnitus for years ,no cure but I have used Lipoflavonoid it helps Its OTC at drugstores I just started using it again as mine is Roark g again I have hearing aids and they help .
@hazelnut Maybe just the CBD would help but with the THC I it is maybe what gave me the headache I,ok try again it did help with the pain .Thanks
Thank you ....Many seem to be having problems with Tinnitus again....maybe the weather here in Illinois is effecting it too. I'll see if our Walgreens has that med......Thanks again. Have a Blessed Sunday !
@hazelnut Your welcome How come in our senior years we are so b!essex with all are problems ? You also have a blessed day
I use a 50/50 Cbd THC mix. It works well for pain, I buy it in capsules. $80 for 60, I use 1 a day.
I hoped that using a small amount of thc would help me with pain and I could take less pain meds. I can’t tolerate it at all. Even small amounts make me very dizzy and nauseated.
@mam14 I'm glad to hear others have side effects from this also I thought it was just me
I was hoping that might be the answer but I get so sick that it’s worse than the pain. My CRPS affects my equilibrium and I get off balance anyway. I tried gummies, oil with a vape pen and the old fashioned way.
Understand this. It may take a while for you to learn to tolerate THC. There are two basic kinds, indica and sativa. Find out which one you've been taking and try the other one. Don't smoke it that's crazy. Take it in a vape pen but turn the vape pen to the lower of the three settings and take a tiny little puff and wait. The thing that fools a lot of people with the vape pen is that as you take the puff and I mean a puff not a long inhale, as you take the pup you taste nothing, and on the Excel with the lowest setting you'll probably see nothing. So before you give up on marijuana try that I don't know if it'll help you but I've never heard of anyone who got sick every time they took it. I've heard of getting sick because you took too much or more specifically you took too much too fast and I've heard of people getting sick the first couple of times they use it but this is stuff that generally passes. You got to believe good luck love and blessings
