My ME/CFS

I have suffered from ME/CFS for approx 20yrs, I now cope with all the things it throws at me but find the Fatigue to be really hard to manage at times. I have looked into the help Cannabis Oil could perhaps offer, what do you all think about this?

Hi xkathx,

I'm in a similar situation getting on to 20years of M.E too:-(.Like yourself I just get on the best I can ,but the fatigue is really difficult to manage and my biggest struggle.I haven't found anything as yet that helps but want you to know your not alone.As for cannabis oil I don't think it will help fatigue I have tried it for pain and aniexty and not noticed much difference.I hope others may have some ideas and may have other opinions on it.I guess if you can afford it there is no harm in giving it a go.

Take care

Thank you for your reply, Amanda, I will not buy the oil as it would be a waste of money really I think as I have tried other things to no avail, You take care too.

I have had M.E and fibromyalgia now for nearly 10 years and fatigue is the worst symptom for me . I tried cannabis oil but has very little effect on fatigue. Tried all sorts of supplements and no difference. Even try pushing myself and just get more weak and fatigued. Wish I knew what would help.
