Hi @curtaincall
How are you today? Thank for starting this discussion. I think discussions about using CBD are really interesting seeing as it is a relatively new and more of a wide spread homeopathic remedy.
I'll tag a few people that might like to jump in and tell us their ideas.
@Ridleyz224 @Dena56 @Rynblu @crystalsmith021409 @LindaH. @Grammaof3 @lilbit73 @MomoRgC @JessPotato @live71 @zoiesmom53 @amyrose @CharlieE @cmmusiclover @Crystalsue @pinsnneedles @Deshey6482 @knancy72 @NettyJ @Carlysm
Do you know what CBD is? What are your thoughts? What have your doctors told you about CBD? Have you ever tried it? Is it readily available in your town?
Take care,
Lizzi

I have found that CBD alone is not enough. In small dosages, I find it does wonders for my anxiety. Larger dosages helped with muscle relaxation and sleep. But for enough relief to keep me going the next day, I need THC. Cannabis products with a 50/50 CBD and THC ratio have worked best for me. Sativa strains have helped most with nerve pain and allodynia, while Indica strains help with muscle relaxation and sleep.

@HelloKitty I started taking kratom when I was diagnosed with cervical dystonia, it means I have constant pulling of my neck and shoulder muscles. Botox is the primary treatment , 6 to 8 shots targeting muscles but its hit and miss. I told a friend about this and he told me about kratom, so I went to a kratom shop and talked to the owner. He learned I was an Army Veteran and sold me some capsules. Unbelievable the kratom knocked out the pain and relieved some of the spasms and pulling that was 5 years ago, and I am still taking it for chronic pain. I have found the vendors to trust and a fbook website to share experiences with others. Like all things kratom must be handled with common sense, and reading info on the web helps educate us all. IT IS THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS WITH MY CHRONIC PAIN

Yes I agree. Im on morphine and Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen and yours as well. I have some others also. If I want to work in the back yard, I am sleep mode if I set down. The next morning and at night is paying with great pain. Its a hard road in many ways. We have to keep going best as we can. Have a smile and good day to you. I have the stimulator too.
