CBD oil for pain

Posted by timfitz @timfitz, Jul 19, 2016

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.

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

Thank you. I may not have realized how much I was getting and it takes more time than I thought. I will be patient.

@pfbacon

I'm scared to death of it - I had a very bad reaction (vertigo, blinding headache, fever blisters) when I tried marijuana in the 1970's; it happened again when I tried hash; I was on the floor for 2 hours scared that I was dying. People have told me that this new CBD stuff doesn't have THC but I don't know whether it was the THC or something else that made me so ill. Peggy

You can always try the CBD derived from Hemp that you can buy at many stores around town. This CBD does not have any active THC products as so low in dose it’s legal to purchase without have state issued card to purchase THC based CBD. It comes in an ointment to apply to affected area.
Good luck.

I am really confused on cbd oil.. Do you take it everyday weather you are in pain at the time or not?? Do you take it morning or evening?
What I really would like to know is do you have to take it for several days or weeks to get it built up in your body or can you expect relief after taking it right away..I think I've been maybe not taking enough because I'm not sure when you should get relief>>
If you have any knowledge on this please share>>

Sounds like this is something you've already started for your pain, but you are not getting the results you anticipated? Will you share about how much/when you've taken it thus far?

@lorena1egas

I suffer from depression and use zoloft.depression usually comes with anxiety. THC induce panic attacks for me. But cbd oil with 0,03% thc gives me the opposite effect it clears my mind and brain fog while calming and relaxin and improve sleep quality. I continue on both zoloft and cbd oIL because it eliminates my anxiety completely.
