Hi Codd: Sorry, no - My CBD hubby didn't have headaches, but he did have little declines along the way (which became bigger "stepdowns" as time went on). Given that the brain is where the damage is happening, one would think headaches would be a given..!

The moods and emotions did decline due to depression, and we found it better after he started taking a SSRI. He smiled and laughed more after that 😊.

Good luck with mum. XX

Dad, CBD, would get headaches every once in a while. His doctor called them cluster headaches, hit fast and hard, went away quickly. He never suffered any permanent degrade from them but was very tired immediately after one.

Hi Codd_family!

These are our experiences or information about:

- May have pain in arms or legs; non-specific pain for no apparent reason; application of 'heat' rubs may help; Paracetamol may also help.

- Pain, but cannot identify the area. Patient is experiencing sever pain at times 1 x a wk or 2, needing pain pills and muscle relaxers to take the edge off. The pain will just appear and she will often start sweating when this happens. Pain episodes can progressed to having at least once a day.

- Approximately 2 to 6 times a week there may be headaches that resolve with liquid paracetamol. Some apply 6 mg of CBD Oil simultaneously.

If someone has other better solutions their experience is welcome.

Hugs and luck.

Yes, my John (PSP), woke this morning with a headache above his right eye, and humming noises in his head, also pain on his right side, and his right hand was numb, firstly gave him is prescribed dose of Oxy/norm, (he had side effects to morphine) at 7am, the carers are due at 8am to wash and dress, still uncomfortable so I gave him paracetamol at 7.45am, he was coming around gradually, had breakfast, but then started his bowel feelings, he suffers from constipation, after a couple of attempts on the commode we were succesfull, five days worth, this really exhausted him and fell asleep at 10am. These headaches are usual for him about one a week, lots of hallucinations, can't hold a conversation but I am still able to understand his quite talk.

John is under hospice care, but no ideal at what stage he is at, booked a family holiday break for 5 days end of July, hope this will still be possible,

Hope this can give you some clarification, the not knowing is so hard, thankfully we can seek solice between us all, love and best wishes Jean xxx
