Greetings!
 
Hello to the forum members! I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma and treated with chemo and then a Stem Cell TP. That left me with chemo-neuropathy. I've been dealing with it the best I can. Using CBD oil with success; but I have weather (barometric) sensitivity. Sometimes it feels like bone crushing pain. Then, I returned to work hoping to work as long as possible. Unfortunately, I developed basal thumb arthritis in both hands requiring the removal of the trapezium hand bone. I've had the left hand surgery and while in my recovery period I developed diplopia (double vision). Now, I am being worked up for Ocular Myasthenia Gravis. I am taking Pyridostigmine and just increased to 60mg. x3/day. It took 6 months to find a neurologist who would take on my case. The side story is I am a registered nurse and a Certified Infusion Nurse having treated autoimmune patients given Immune Globulin for the past 13yrs. My organ recital.:D

If you want to share info on CBD oils feel free to post about it on our Medications & Treatments forum - first hand experiences is always nice to read about for alternative options..
