CBD anybody using it.

Yep, i have tried almost everything on the market…..most all legal, some - well….may be ‘experimental’ .
With the pain being constant and not much helping that the docs do or let you have.

The Voltaren shown above works ok on arthritis, degenerative type situation (like my vertebrae) - it helps with the inflammation and pain some.
I also take several prescriptions: Meloxicam, Gabapentin, lidocaine patches, heavy menthol rubs…the higher the % of the menthol the better….every 6mos or so i get cortisone shots - sometimes .

It is a situation with me where i just have to use a combo of stuff, try different things until you find something that will help you tolerate it enough you can deal with it.

It sux, i feel for ya. Hope you find some relief - ItBeMe ItBeMe Good luck brother !!
Good luck with your meds. but watch that Gabapentin!! I had a neighbor friend taking that for a degenerative disc condition. Unfortunately he was from the school of "if some is good, more must be better". It turned him into a zombie, and sadly his wife found him dead on his knees in the bathroom one morning. He liked Scotch as well, and it may have been a combination of that and the Gabopentin that did it.
 
The VA after 11 months of bone to bone contact on my hip, has finally set me up with a civilian Orthopedic specialist. I go the 1st of March and I am going to ask about this subject...The VA put out a statement through My Healthy Vet site stating, They will not prescribe it, but it is now ok if a Civilian doctor does..Will see
But not in Georgia, u less it’s medical and non THc

Wow ! Im sorry about your neighbor. Unfortunately i have seen it happen several times .

Thanks for the information and the fyi on the gabapenting . I do look at all my meds carefully. Especially they interactions with each other. I am aware of the dangers and side effects.

It never hurts to remind folks about stuff like that- the same as fooling around with guns.:)
 
I just picked up a tube of this and it works like a champ for me. Rubbed a bit on and a few min’s pain was mostly gone.

Ok, send me to the correct answer, the pain from my Cancer is getting worse. May CBD can help.
Talking to patients, it works for some and not others. I can't guess.
The only "FDA Approved" use is for epilepsy or seizure disorders.

And truthfully, I thought I deleted my post for being TMI. To late, **** it.
Wish I could help brother, I take 300mg a day which is a large dose.
