Has anyone with RA used Blessed CBD Medical cannabis

Hello, after 2 years of treatment I stopped my Biologic Benepali last April 2021 (after 2 yrs it caused a severe, itchy, neck, chest and face rash that wouldn't go away with Betnovate and Piriton). Later in April, I had a steroid injection and my 2nd Astra Z (no after effects) On 16th June I paid £500 and I had the 1st of 2 Shringrix (dead shingles vaccine) in Salisbury at Southern Independent Medical Practice (no after effects) Note the NHS Shingles vaccine is a live vaccine that you cannot have if you have been on Biologics for under 1 year. My rheumy advised the Shingrix dead vaccine because I am waiting to take the new JAK inhibitor tablets Baricitinib in 3 weeks time and they could cause shingles. Because I'm not taking Biologics I'm in so much pain despite taking 3 amytriptyline, 2 Meloxicam, 8 paracetamol and 6 Codiene tablets with Omaprazole. Has anyone tried Blessed CBD Medical cannabis for RA pain and inflammation? Many thanks Summer

I found something that works for me after much trial and error. PM me if you want details about it.

Oh! Sorry! I'd love to know but what does "PM me" mean?

Private message. I didn't want to post a pic of it as it might look like I'm advertising.

Hit my dog pic and you'll get my profile. At the top there's a spot that says message. Hit that and you send the message. You should see by now if you look at the top of this reply a yellow circle with the number 1 where it says chat. I sent you a message.

I tried it but it didn't do anything unless I had the THC to zone me into la la land.

It did nothing for me. Gave me very bad unsettled sleep, that's all

Can't help on the CBD but just wanted to say I had the same issues on Benepali after almost 2years and have been on Baricitnib for about 9 months now...I'm prone to shingles and have only had one episode since being on the tablets.
