Does anyone use CBD oil?

I've just ordered some 1000mg CBD vape oil in attempt to reduce the amount of painkillers I take for a chronic condition.

Has anyone else used the stuff? Is it snake-oil or does it have benefits?
If you have used it have you noticed any real positives/changes?

Anything experiences will be really appreciated. Thanks.

Yes. It’s been fantastic for hip bursitis that I’ve had for 2 years.
I get mine from simply cbd.

I’ve managed to stop my long term painkillers.

@ihatethecold That's fantastic. I've been on oramorph, co-codamol and amitriptyline for nearly 5 years now.
I've had enough. The doses keep getting bigger and the relief gets smaller.

Very excited to try it.

I have awful hip bursitis. I would be grateful for more info, ihatethecold.

ihatethecold · 28/04/2020 07:16

I will take some photos and add links when I get up for you both.

I wasn’t on lots of painkillers just diclofenac or Naproxen 3 times a day but at night the pain was awful if I tried to sleep on the affected side. I’ve had therapeutic ultrasound on it many times, cortisone injections and lots of physio that only improved the pain minimally. So the cbd oil working to reduce the pain so much has been fantastic.

Thank you so much.

What do you do with the CBd oil? Ingest it, rub it on affected area?

ihatethecold · 28/04/2020 09:09

I use these 2 products

The oil is from simply cbd. I have 4 drops twice a day. It has to be taken 2 hours away from medications.
There is a very informative fb page that gives advice and support around simply cbd products.
With the drops you start slowly and build up over 7 days.so the first week. 1 drop morning and evening
2nd week 2 drops morning and evening
3rd week 3 drops etc.
Until you find a point that helps.
Some people will find it helps very quickly. Others take a few weeks.

I use the gold product because it has turmeric in it.

I will use a mirror to make sure I can count the drops going under my tongue.

The gel in the pot I use as needed on my hip. Usually before bed.

Does anyone use CBD oil?

Do you have a link to the website that sells those products OP?
I am not on FB.
Thanks
