I have tried CBD/THC oil and have had no luck. I suffer from daily headaches (9+ hours a day). However I know some people who say it works wonders for them. Guess everyone reacts differently to it, always worth a shot!

A related thread with good info on our PN forum.
The Amazing Benefits of CBD: The Non-Psychotropic Cannabinoid and Neuropathy

Just reading this thread, do you still have your headaches. Could these be sinus headaches. I would say give Grape Seed Extract a good trial and you could be very pleased with results. I get no headaches in mega years and on grape seed ex about 24 yrs.

Actually, thc is illegal in my state, medicinally as well as recreationally. I "timed" a trip to CO with a friend to try these products. Since I am in pain mgt. I can't have this in my system when tested, so my trip was inbetween appts. to ensure I tested properly when I got back to my pain mgt. doc.

I cannot tolerate smoking it, so I bought some of the "rub on" creams and ointments and tried several over the course of the days I was in CO. I wanted to know if it worked well, and would have been willing to literally move if it did a lot (CRPS brings that out of us, lol). Anyway, I found that by rubbing the combination THC/CBD ointment (only 1 brand got me the results I am speaking of), I actually did have places where the pain in that area melted away. Other areas, it did absolutely nothing for me. Where the pain melted away, it melted away in grande style, and where it didn't work, it really didn't work at all.

Of the 5 or 6 brands I tried (I literally went to like 4 shops and got a variety as this was an intentional and purposeful trip to see if I could really get relief), again, I found that only 1 brand did work for me, and of that, only in certain places on my body. The bottle was black with blue writing and the name of the product was named Luxeleaf.

Interesting! I thought grape seed oil was somewhat similar to caffeine (at least when I tried it many years ago). In the 90s, it was marketed as a workout supplement by "Weider" and others. I tried it and remember that it upset my stomach and made me feel very edgy and clinically "yucky". I know,, dont say it- sour grapes... But who knows what they were putting in their products at that time. Glad it works well for you!

cbd salve hasnt seemed to help any of my PN foot tingling. 30 bucks a bottle... expected more.....

Low-dose cannabidiol (CBD) can be sold OTC in pharmacies around Australia from yesterday 1st February 2021 without prescription.

It's apparently low dose of no more than 150 milligrams per day. I have no idea how that translates.

It is not PBS at this stage so I have no idea of the price yet in my country. Vaping or topical cream products still need a prescription.

I will try some for my cancer/immunotherapy pain and other side effects at some time I imagine. I was probably eligible for a prescription for some time but I didn't really think about it. [I just read that our AMA isn't particularly happy with pharmacies being able to sell it OTC because they're concerned that pharmacists are not trained enough in its use and so some people who are already dealing with epilepsy, anxiety and other conditions will now not see their doctors as regularly as they need.]

This is actually an enormous milestone to see in my lifetime. I could go on but i won't.

The CBD oil Charlottes Web has changed my life. I have occipital nerve pain diagnosis on left face. This was initial reason for use along with symptoms I now know are like or are an aura for a migraine. I call it brain mush. I used to have it all day at times. Now only for short occasionally. I have had an application of the oil on my temple and forehead interrupt a worsening ocular migraine. Also it has improved my sleep and is amazing for spasms. Infantile spasms is one of the things is what is or soon will be medically approved for.. I was really desperate when I tried it as getting pain treatment in Iowa is near impossible. I literally learned acupuncture a short version with my former acupuncturist as one of several tools to manage my face and eye pain. It started at corner of left eye years ago. I trust the Stanley Brothers who developed Charlottes Web for Charlotte Figi. Her story is wonderful if you get a chance. Sculptor44

Great to read that it's helped you so much. I just read some info on the people you mentioned and learned a lot especially relating to terminology. Thanks for that.
I don't know what's going on here in my country after that announcement they made. I heard the next day that it'll take 6 to 12 months before anything is available OTC.
That link from the PN forum that Jomar posted higher up on the thread is worth reading too. Lots of information there.

I bought a 250mg bottle of CBD oil recently and I chose the more expensive stuff but it did nothing for me unfortunately. It is a good laxative however.
