Thanks, Linda. I have used a (cheap) one here in the UK, which I bought myself. But it is VERY expensive and comes in stupid tiny bottles which last no time at all. I didn’t notice it making any difference but I did only have the one 10ml bottle which only lasted 2-3 weeks. I’m guessing that’s not long enough to see any effect. That’s why I was interested in anyone being prescribed it. It would save me a whole heap of money!
I felt a reduction in ATN pain within the first 2 days.
CBD oil is exspensive if you buy the Charlotte Web brand, but the pain relief is worth it. There is a high demand for it now. That is why it is so exspensive. More farmers are starting to grow it now, and this might bring the price down.
I was having a lot of pain before but I did not want to increase the Gabapentin. Now no pain all day long.
However, 7 days after a gradual reduction from gabapentin I have withdrawal side effects and the pain is bad that day. It is gone by next day. I bought the 30ml bottle Mint/choc. which was 10mg. It last almost a month using 1/4 tsp twice a day. I have now the CW Hemp Plus 25mg. and using 1/8 tsp. twice a day.
I don’t think the large pharmaceutical companies like this since CBD oil could replace many of their money making dugs which are toxic to your body. Also, CBD oil can not be patent which is necessary for them to make a profit.
I did a lot of research in the last six months. I was afraid to try it until a friend who is a nurse at special pain center encouraged me.
I could be wrong about a pill form. I know insurance companies do not cover the cost where I live.
Medical marijuana has been legalized in my state for children and cancer patients, which could be in a pill form.
I’m really glad you’re getting such good results from it. It’s certainly way better for your health than using drugs, if you can manage that. I wish it was legal to grow it here in the UK so I could grow my own. Maybe I need to start a grow house in my back garden!
I saw an ad for free CBD oil. They said it helped pain so I ordered some. They posted the free ad again so I got another bottle free. I’m presently in remission so I haven’t tried it yet. When I do I’ll be sure to post the results. I’m a little scared to try it.
Whole Greens sells it so Google them.
Warning…be sure to cancil your order or they send you a bottle every month at 60+ dollars. If it works I guess that’s worth it. I hope you try it and let us all know if it helps.
