cbd oil and radio 4 programme

I had a braininjury in 2004. For about 3 months I have been taking cbd oil 5% from holland and barrett once a night, most nights when i wake, it sends me back to sleep in about 10-15 minutes.

Otheriwse without cbd, i may be awake for well over an hour / 2 to r hous, before i can go back to sleep. If i do too much i get exerional migrianes eg migraines triggerd by cooking under bright lights in the evening for me and my son, swimming, walking. Exercise helps me sleep but too much and i have a migrinane that is too painful to sleep.

Painkilers don't always work and i get medication overuse headaches. i go to sleep fine, I just cannot sleep for long. The cbd oil may help with headache/migraine too.

On inside health last night on radio 4 they said icbd oil could be unsafe for ones brain?;and it 's saftey has not been tested, i wonder if anyone has discussd this/ cbd oil with a gp or consultant. i am sorry i am not typing well screens make headache worse!
