Any luck with CBD oil?

[Derek1987]

I'm talking about the oil with no thc. In other words it doesn't get you high. Supposedly people are getting pain and anxiety relief from CBD oil. Whether through vaping or the droplets. Any success stories? It's a bit expensive. But I'm willing to try it.

No luck here. And I got the real expensive Charlotte's Web stuff.

@Derek1987 - my B-I-L is disabled from a bad back injury and on pain killers. He does not want to become addicted to them, so his pain management doc switches his meds every 2 months and recommended CBD oil to him. He uses it sometimes ( gummies ) and he claims it does help with feeling tense, especially when he starts getting afraid of getting pain.so I guess it does help with anxiety. I am not sure what it would do to BP and HR or adrenergic symptoms - check with your doc ?

My doctor prescribed marinol to try to help stabilize my autonomic system and help my appetite but it just made me really high, I hated it....I talked to the CRNP about trying CBD instead, since I can't handle being high. I've found it helps with the anxiety from my symptoms (and anxiety caused by life in general) and also helps me sleep. I didn't have much pain when I started it, but I've heard it helps pain as well. I've had zero negative side effects so far. I use the Charlotte's Web drops and took the advice of some professionals I work with who are involved in the medical cannabis system and "started slow", basically the lowest dose, and increased my doseage to what I feel works for me. I would definitely talk to your doctor about it or try to find a doctor knowledgable about it, even if you do not want to go through a state sponsored medical cannabis program.
