Hi

As any one tried CBD oil just purchased some at 8.6 strength per drop.Really chills you out and slept like a log for the last 3 x nights but not sure if I have had any pain relief though as it really chills/tires you out so daytime use is a bit unpredictable 😐

I don't take it. If your on prescribed medications it can inhibit the actions of certain types. So it's best to check. It's great if you have managed some good sleep though.

Hi,

Ive tried CBD Oil. One from Holland and Barrett that was rubbish. Another one i bought was from PURE KANA in Canada .I can't really say that either of them helped with the pain

Perhaps it wasn't strong enough. I don't know.

Would you mind telling me where you

got yours from. Because even if it helps you sleep, THAT'S SOMETHING.

I had just over 2 hours sleep last night, i am absolutely hanging. The Bloody Fibro is creasing me today and my Head feels like it's gonna burst.

Waste of time going to the Doctors.

They are absolutely rubbish.

Hope you can help me out. 😱😰😰.

Thanks Gjkas.

Hey Foxglove, i think that we are in a muddle here HAHAHA.

I have asked DERBY where he got his CBD from because it helps him sleep. I only get about 2 hours sleep a night. Ive been up since 3 .30 this morning and haven't been able to have a nap today because of the bloody pain im in. Im absolutely hanging.

If DERBY does get back to me I'll make sure that I let you know. .

Take Care. 😊.

I have tried it some days I think it has helped other days it hasn’t. I have had the odd good night sleep with it but Sunday night was dreadful I was awake all night with pain and last night I slept better after talking a herbal sleep better remedy.

Do you know the exact name of CBD oil you take? I've tried some of H&B brands but they don't seem to help. I feel I am wasting money I can't afford.

Hi, sorry about muddle!! .....(I'm good at those - ha-ha) Of course it was Derby I should have asked! Have done so now. But if you get any more info do tell. I know all about pain and understand.

I have found a website called High and Polite. It's very informative and helpful regarding CBD.

Hi all, I am new to this, I have fibromyalgia, and take Venalic XL and pregablin, I am really fed up with how tired I am and only sleeping 2-3 hours per night, hardly notice the sleep I have. Lots of pain as well. I have been looking at CBD oil for a few months and finally bought some, it arrived yesterday from Healthspan, it is 2.75% CBD oil and was recommended by a friend.

My challenge and decision is should I take it or not? I can't seem to find any information if this would be safe to do, I am craving a full night's sleep, it is not much fun on 2-3 hours per night.

Derby123ryan, are you taking any medication as well as the CBD?

Has anyone taken the medication I am on and used CBD?

I have to believe I could not feel any more tired, the side effects of the medications are 'tiredness, fatigue, dry mouth among others, so I would like to stop them if I can find something else that works. (with GP support).

TIA
