Has anyone used CBD oil for chronic pain? And do you have results?

Posted by rensacb @rensacb, Jan 22, 2019

I'm a chronic pain suffer of 35+ years. Scoliosis is the culprit. Not a disfiguring curve but non the less painfully destructive. Almost every disc is bulging from 3mm to 6mm. I've had 2 spinal fusion. C 3-7 and L 4-5. Have 4 nerve root impengements with spondylosis in some areas and stenosis at interval from neck to sacral. Take steroid shots when I can with positive results for a few weeks. Always have Norco 5mg/325 ready if needed. Unfortunately I have found the best way to keep pain down is to lie down. So most of my days are spent on my bed. Any suggestions?

The issue for me is does it help by removing the pain. The pain was not removed by use of CBD/THC. Now if I used the inappropriate formula I do not know. During my early diagnostic period I had appointments with 15, yes 15 different doctors before it was diagnosed. I suffered through months of trying one medicine and then another. I am not anxious to go off on another trial.

The beneficial effect of all pharmaceutical drugs is both DOSE dependent and duration of treatment (TIME) dependent. ALSO.... EVERYTHING CHANGES WITH EVERY SECOND THAT YOU GROW OLDER. WHAT Rx WORKS TODAY MAY KILL YOU IN FIVE YEARS.😇

I am sorry to hear about your pain. I have been facing similar challenges with debilitating neuropathy.

I have tried high quality CBD oils, high dosed medicinal THC, singularly and combined. Unfortunately nothing worked. Only side effects, especially the THC.

My pain "ripens" as soon as I ly down and rest. Debilitating.
When it reaches a 9 I just ly there and start to cry. Oddly enough, after about an hour of crying my brain seems to react and starts to send out self-generated pain relievers. But what a high price to pay!

I hope you find some good ways to manage your pain!
