CBD and PD

I have suffered PD for about 11 years. In 2018, I was diagnosed with dysphagia and had to be fed via PEG.This year saw me back to nearly fully eating normally only to contract pneumonia and return to be fed by PEG once more.

Has anyone experienced this problem?

Is there anyone out there who has used CBD in a form usable via a PEG.

Regards
