Hi, I'm new to this group. I have severe neuropathy and I believe the Dr. said spondelosis (?), and herniated discs up and down my spine, worst in my neck and low back. All I know is screaming pain, burning, stabbing,etc. I'm in pain management, so I'm given pain killer and muscle relaxer. Since the pain is so unbearable, slot of neuropathy patients are using CBD. Just wondering if anyone has tried it?
Yes - no noticeable arthritis benefit, but watch your blood pressure.
My cervical spine is fused from AS (except C1 and C2). I have daily headaches, sometimes severe. I can always tell when the Tylenol wears off as the headache comes back. Are these headaches the result of a fused C spine?
Used lots of CBD with no noticeable benefit. Watch your blood pressure if you try it.
I currently am using Tylenol 3 for pain. I cannot take NSAIDS. I do not want to take anything else. I already take 8 pills a day because I had a heart attack in May and really struggle with anxiety. My Rheumatologist has mentioned Biologics. I want to stay away from meds as long as I can. I do struggle with pain, sweats, IBS and so many of the other commons symptoms, but I have to try everything else first.
Thankyou richard

I was wondering if anyone takes cbd oil for their pain and does it help.

Medterra is also popular.
Experiment for proper dosage. I use liberally at bedtime and on rising. Seems to work.
