Has anyone tried or thought about trying medical marijuana? Seems to help with seizures and I've taken anti-seizure meds for migraines which helped for a while. Anyone???

Hi, I've been using 8% CBD oil for a couple of months now. I have persistent daily headaches which build to daily migraines as the day goes on.

I've stopped a few in their tracks but not much luck with aura migraines, will keep trying by upping the dose.

I came off every other med except triptans but I'm not using 8 a month now down to 3/4 max.

It's worth a try 👍

I’m currently trying this at the moment and have joined a facebook group. Think it’s important to try different brands and ones from recommended companies which are as pure as possible. I use a company called cannawell

I really hope this works for you because if it does, it could help some of the rest of us. QUESTION: If you (and I mean anyone) has to go to a pain specialist to get narcotics for pain and you have to take a drug test every time you go, would marijuana in your system keep the pain specialist from giving you a much needed prescription for pain meds (I take Hydrocodone)????????? I really want to know because I'm so tempted to try pot.

Ive no idea on wherever they would or wouldn’t prescribe but I am trying the Hemp balance and this has a small amount of canniboliods in it. If you get a full spectrum one which has THC in it then you can test positive. However if you get an isolated it won’t. The supplement has the benefits but without the high of pot and I believe it helps to calm the pain receptors in the body and also helps with anxiety, which I know also triggers mine. I hope that’s helpful!
