Anybody try Hemp Oil drops for widespread non-specific overall pain? Sometimes I am crippled by it, never free of it, and am Sick of doctors shrugging.
It's not hemp oil, but I use a pain gel that works very well. I've got a bad knee that just aches terribly sometimes. The gel takes away most if not all the pain in a matter of minutes.
Tropicals might help but this pain effects every part of my body all at once, I would need to soak in a vat.....
Sorry you're having such pain. That sucks. I use cannabis (vape) for my various orthopedic issues and it does help. Not sure if it's the same effect as CBD (without the high). My niece suffers from fibromyalgia and CBD helps a lot. I hope you find relief.
thinking of trying vape but the high price of the oil here in canada is a barrier.
how does the price of the oil & flowers compare down there?
See many on this thread in constant pain. have over 40 years as holistic Chiropractor specializing in nutrition. An almost universal finding with pain is low essential fatty acids and lectin containing food items. Notorious for pain are nightshades such as peppers, tomatoes and eggplant. Others are grains and beans like kidney beans. highly recommend reading THE PLANT PARADOX by DR GUNDRY
I have been using it since June of last year, I have degenerative arthritis in every joint thanks to a life saving medicine. The largest problem most people have is that they do not use a strong enough solution. Anything under 300mg/30ml is too weak for most people. the first number is the total amount of actual CBD in the solution, the second number is the total solution in the bottle 30ml=1 oz.
Also, it helps to get rid of sugar in your diet!
you could try tumeric or curcumin. some people have had a good results with those. might want to study up on it though. I think they require some fat to be soluble when you eat them or drink the tea.
I have been taking tumeric/curcumin, glucos.com/chond, etc, No help. I was using Aleve, then had to increase to 4 tabs a day and no relief, Tylenol Arthritis worked for awhile too, but they all wear off. Have removed Aspartame from my life, that Really helped for about 4 days. Wits end, can barely walk most days...when I have a "good" day ( for no reason I can see) life is Great, then, back to thinking I need a walker.....
@AnneWimsey I don't do fake sugar. if you're taking anything involving your absorption of calcium that can cause a lot of pain too. I'm sorry to hear of your distress.
@LetzGetReal I avoid sugar & salt religiously, have done for decades......wish it was something that easy!
@LetzGetReal I am in the process of changing doctors, the last one never listened, dismissed a growth on my head by saying "lose weight"...the dermatologist did an immediate biopsy (no kidding!) So I am in a "dead zone" right now. Also take an enormous amount of drugs for congestive heart failure, so that becomes a factor...however, gaba is an older tried & true drug, which I like a lot. Thanks, will ask
