Hi. I know I have asked before but going to mention this again. I asked the Dr about taking CBD oil again. He said no. The reason being they do not really know how well it works with Ibrance or the hormone blocker either, I even asked him about using the CBD crème and he said he would prefer I didn't. Everyone else is using it and your Drs say it's ok, is this correct? I'm up in the air about it. My husband says take it. I just wanted your thoughts. Do you guys think it's helping you, those of you who do take it?

I’ve used it on and off but tbh I think it’s a waste of money...didn’t help with my pain

The fact that your doctor has told you not to take it is because none of them know much about interaction with our meds...he’s just being over cautious...scared of future litigation

I asked mine about Q10 and she’d never heard of it but I still take it as it gives me energy ...sometimes it’s worth the risk if there’s a benefit

Tricky though

Absolutely. My fatigue is 80% less. And edibles are fun.

Hi Artist,

I am on Ibrance/Letrozole and do not take anything CBD. I have never asked my oncologist about it. It doesn't seem to be as widely used in the U.S. Shops selling it are starting to pop up so we will probably learn more as time goes by. Blessings Hannah

The pharmacy where I get Rx compounded testosterone cream (helps lessen vaginal dryness and atrophy with hormonal tx) started selling CBD cream and tincuture. Both from a company that sells only to reputable pharmacies. I've used both.
