YIKES! I have many, many of these symptoms. I have had test after test performed by my medical doctor and nothing horrible has shown. While that is a good thing, I feel like there is something seriously wrong physically that they are missing, because I feel horrible every single day.

Dorsey profile image
Dorsey in reply to AllianceMike

Can relate to that i feel horrible everyday to the point of spending most of the day on the couch. But that is not me i keep trying to do things when i don't feel to bad then back it comes again. If i could have one week of feeling better it would be a miracle.

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Dorsey

Dorsey,

I totally understand! I am having a terrible spell right now. Of all things, I coughed and now I am light-headed, have terrible body shakes and my heart feels like it's out of rhythm.

I am so discouraged, because I feel ill every day!

Dorsey profile image
Dorsey in reply to AllianceMike

Yes no fun is it I've tried so hard today went to dhops felt so ill i wanted yo run back to my car. I wake up every morning feeling like I've had a terrible fright. Legs feel tingly and numb don't know how much longer i can do this.

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Dorsey

I totally get it. Here's what's weird about me. I seem to sleep okay, but within 30 minutes of waking up, my symptoms start. I get lightheaded, feel like I'm not breathing right, my body starts to shake and I am always sore and tender from about mid-chest/back up to my head. I am this way 24/7 and it's hard to not give up.

Dorsey profile image
Dorsey in reply to AllianceMike

I have overwellming panic sometimes in the middle of the night. If not then about five minutues after i wake up i just never feel well enough to go about my daily life. It's a real struggle my partner doesn't get it he just thinks i can keep going and do everything. Find the doctor's just try znother pill unfortunately everything i try makes me feel worse. I don't know what the answer is but ever need a chat let me know sometimes you feel better after talking to someone who understand s.

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Dorsey

Dorsey,

Would love to chat when it is convenient for you. I agree that just being able to converse about our feelings, symptoms, etc. with someone else who is going through the same thing can be of great help.

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Dorsey

I am so sorry that you're struggling. I have been absolutely horrible! It hits me about 30 to 45 minutes after I wake up. Body shakes, off balance/foggy feeling in head, upper body soreness, etc. I wish I could have just 1 day where I felt good :(

Dorsey profile image
Dorsey in reply to AllianceMike

So sorry not a good feeling I'm the same the only time i feel good is before i go to bed. Think that's beca use i know the day is over. Yes a couple of days of feeling good would be nice.

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Dorsey

Hi Dorsey! I'm still struggling to be honest. Just had an MRI of my brain done two weeks ago and it came back normal. While that is great news, it doesn't help me feel better. My head still feels funny every day. I still shake every day. To be honest, I think I have depression now on top of my anxiety due to not feeling well and not being able to get answers as to why I feel so bad each and every day. How are you doing?

Cwoods profile image
Cwoods in reply to AllianceMike

do u takw vitamins or vitamin d3 it is awesome that the mri didnt show anything mayb a blood test can help to check your vitamin levels

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Cwoods

Cwoods,

Thank you for the reply. Yes. I take Alive Men's multivitamin every day. I also take Vitamin D3 as I was deficient, but am now in a good range.

I don't know where to turn. I have had several tests performed and nothing terrible has shown, yet I literally feel like I'm dying. I shake every day. I get clammy sweats. My head never feels right. Digestive issues, etc. Just very discouraged.

Cwoods profile image
Cwoods in reply to AllianceMike

i totally feel for you its so depressing when u just cant find answers im here if u ever need to talk.

AllianceMike profile image
AllianceMike in reply to Cwoods

Thank you! My doctor feels that all of my issues/symptoms are due to severe anxiety. I am not saying that I don't believe him, but can anxiety really cause us to feel so ill physically and have the types of symptoms that I described in my last message?

very interesting

in reply to kevoreally

I understand perfectly why you are taking CBD and you can buy it over the counter now in places like Holland & Barrett.

I read a very interesting article in one of my magazines recently and it was a true life story about a woman that was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and it was terminal, she was told she would live 2 weeks without treatment but could prolong it with Chemo, probably about 2 months. She started with the Chemo and of course suffered the side affects but then read something about Cannabis and its curing properties. She found somewhere on the internet (I think I'm right in saying this and that she didn't buy it off someone) and purchased some but this wasn't the same as the oil you buy in places like Holland & Barrett. She started to take the Cannabis and didn't mind the side affects at all and didn't tell the health professionals initially that she was taking it. She went back to the hospital to see if the Chemo was working and they couldn't believe that the tumours had shrunk and said the Chemo must be working. She went back again for another check up and they couldn't believe that the tumours had shrunk again, then she came clean and told them about the Cannabis and she has continued taking it since. The moral of this story is the woman has now survived 2 years past her original diagnoses! There is food for thought here.

Cbd has healing properties and helps chemo patients with the chemo side effects while also helping cure most ailments including cancer

That is why marijuana is illegal because it Has healing properties ESPECIALLY if you get CBD with no THC which is the high you feel and a high concentration or ratio of 25:1(cbd:thc)

The reason I take CBD is to help ease my anxiety and give me that confidence boost while also recieving that oush i never wanted to recieve from the love of my life my wife ❤️👌🏽 Im glad she supports me in allowing me to smoke it/vape it/tinctures(this is edible liquid)

If anyone wants links to where you can ourchase FLOWER form which is “bud” but no THC or little to NO thc

Tweedlefarms is the place to go

Tweedlefarms.com

If you want the tincture the best sites are Thecbdistillery.com OR bluebirdbotanicals.com

Blue birds is more expensive and cbdistillery is on the cheaper side

Both are very effective and tweedlefarms is very cheap and high quality CBD flowers :)
