I always try and find companies that obviously get good reviews and always start slow with the dosage as well but some people have really good results I'm hoping to try them some point soon as well

Probably the only thing cannabis oil won't work on is reversing the damage of cirrhosis so if I was you I would save your money I explored that avenue years ago it won't do any additional harm but you would have to speak to your consultant mine was very open minded and told me it wouldn't harm me but as we know they all give different advice

I’m not sure. Check with your consultant. If you will need a transplant this might render you ineligible based on sobriety.

Also, I can’t imagine what Cannabis would help in any way with cirrhosis. It’s not like you have cancer.

Either way, talk to your consultant and look at laws and regulations involving transplant.

Good luck
