HiHas Anyone Tried CBD? I Have Severe Neuropathy And Slot Of Patients Use It.
A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

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?
