[SongStream]

In this month's New Mobility is an informative article on CBD and spinal cord injuries which will be most helpful for those who are considering its use. It has been shown to be helpful for spasms.

I have not found it useful for me, no matter the strength (300 gms to 1,000 gms) or form. I've only regularly used CBD oil that's available in shops, which means no THC.

I had one experience with a portion of a gummy that did have THC and after my night's sleep, not before, my spasticity and pain had just about disappeared for 3 full days! I was able to walk just as the time before AMN hit me! It was a miracle! Then it wore off. The spasticity and pain came back. I made another attempt with another portion of the same gummy but nothing. The last piece only made me paranoid, not a good feeling.

I really need to look into medical marijuana.

I believe CBD oil does help some people.

Definitely something in CBD. People smoking those synthetic forms of THC, having no CBD to balance out the THC causes all sorts of problems. Seizures, etc.

I was smoking a lot of dope when I was in London a few weeks back. Magic stuff. Killed my neuropathy stone dead.

CBD alone did nothing for me, though. But like I said, I bought it cheap on Amazon.

We need more data on this.

Consumer Reports states to "See a product's: certificate of analysis. (COA). That document shows how a product performed on tests checking for CBD and THC levels, and the presence of contaminants." Not all CBD are created equal.

Here's the very informative article from a trustworthy source:

Indeed, like I said before, you can buy pure CBD crystals in the States. At a price. The cheap CBD is next to worthless if you ask me.
