Question Anyone trying MJ, THC, CBD oil products ?

I was wondering how well it works for you, and what main issues you use it for ?

Medicinal cannabis is legal here on prescription only.

It is still early days but it seems that it can be prescribed for a range of conditions including management of epilepsy, MS, chronic pain and palliative care.

I've purchased several types of CBD tinctures and didn't go for the HIGH priced products and they really have NOT done anything for me. Also working with a couple CBD salves with 100mg and 500mg strength and I get "maybe" a little pain relief.

If it takes like 1000mg strengths, then the price goes sky high, for my purse anyway.

I'm trying it for arthritic pain.

I have tried some stuff a friend of mine makes. He insisted that I try it for my CRPS but the oils just don't seem to help for me.

I am using it for chemoneuropathy and muscle pain from Myasthenia Gravis. It must be working because when I feel better I forget to take it! The first time I used it I must have take too low a dose; because it didn't really work well for me. I heard about a neurologist using it in Florida to treat a lady with MG so I bought some in a higher dose. You can always add to your dose so I don't recommend beginning high; but low and work your way up.

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!

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!
