CBDs?

patbz — Mon, 09 May 2016 21:51:55 GMT

DH has RA and doctor recommended CBDs. Is anyone using an oil or a salve that is available online?

I don't know what a CBD is either but for my osteoarthritis I use an ointment called Voltaren which I get from a Canadian pharmacy. It comes in a large 150g tube, is odorless and non-greasy. It's the only thing that gets me up and moving in the morning. You can read about it at pharmacymix.com., which is where I get it. It's not available in the US without a prescription.

Cannabis based salve or oil but completely legal everywhere in USA.

@patbz

So you are saying this is based on POT? Is legality based on your State? Never heard of the stuff.

@hckynut John, first, I hope you're feeling better, your wife as well.

You can google 'CBD' and read about how cannibis is involved in this. I like to read 'Wikipedia' explanation of 99.9% of what I need to know.

I came across penetrex cream, sold on Amazon.I also use the cool comfort soft braces, also on Amaznon. Both are helpful, you can read on Amazon.

I just started using CBD for my pug. He was losing his mobility in his back end, I think due to arthritus. I started giving the CBD for dogs in his food last Thursday and I am already seeing a difference in him. He is getting around better. I am really hopeful. I have spoken to a lot of people that have used it for themselves and their pets, and had really great success. I got mine from healthy hemp oils dot com. They have a ton of variations for humans and a lot of customer reviews and a lot f great information to help you pick the best one. I ordered mine and it was here in a week.

It's completely legal. They have some variations to help with sleeping that I think I may ordere for myself. Hope that helps.

CBD oil is from the hemp plant, not the marijuana plant. They're "cousins." I've been researching it for my RA.

I found some at the health food store and it's wicked expensive. I bought a bottle to try and have tried it for three days, just half a dropper. I can't tell yet - but sadly don't think I'll be able to afford it long term.

I am always getting spam emails about this. I have been trashing them without reading. I am going to look at the next one. I have been getting these emails for a long time.

@patbz@, do a search here. @Moonchilde has mentioned her experience with CBD several times. It is $$$.

I order mine from Amazon. One does not need a lot and yes it is expensive, but so are all my meds for Ra.

i find it a nice addition to what I already take.

@Kachina624:

@patbz, look for @Moonchilde on here. I think she has had at least 2 different OP's where she has been very informative about cbd oils.

There is also a hemp-derived CBD. I use it orally. The lotion did nothing for me. It is totally legally everywhere.

Re: CBDs?

Island Bell — Mon, 05 Mar 2018 23:09:39 GMT

It is "Voltaren". not "Volaren".

I get my CBD from a guy who grows it and makes it specifically for doctors. He is way less expensive.

DH had a medical marijuana card and if we shop carefully it is affordable.
