CBD oil

I bought some CBD oil for pain, tastes dreadful but did help with neuropathic pain.

You definately won't get high from it.

I have had it in edibles but it is important to ask for cbd only and not thc if you wish to avoid the high. The best place I have heard to find more information on this type of treatment is the recent breakthrough treatments for children and seizure disorders but it is still pretty controversial and varies state to state for the laws on it.

I am stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma and I have found the pure plant material most effective for my ptsd and cancer and no more debilitating than any of the other drugs I have to take with much less side effects than the prescriptions designed to treat the same symptoms.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you find the relief you seek I will be praying for you

I have looked into it, and it seems to me that the evidence for an anti-cancer effect is still lacking. It seems pretty well established that various marijuana products can help against pain, insomnia and anxiety for many people. When it comes to treating cancer, however, I am not convinced, and I worry that we don't know enough about what it does in the body if you have ER+ breast cancer.

IAmElaine, I have seen some stuff suggesting that it might be. I emphasize "might". Besides we don't actually understand well what phyto-estrogens do or don't do vis-a-vis ER+ cancer. In general I just think we need more research on hemp oil and need to understand exactly what it does.

Thanks Momine and Icando. I will definitely continue research on this oil. I don't want to do anything remotely risky!

Hi. Newly diagnosed with my 2nd primary BC.

Had 4 a/c and 2 taxol last go-round 13 years ago. Stage 2B. This time I'm stage 3A

and looking at chemo again and rads again. (new primary, other breast).

My onco says she has other patients medical marijuana for pain. I had awful/significant

neuropathy with the taxol first go-round. Looking at relieving the extreme neuropathy

I expect to have in my near future with the taxane protocol. Thanks!

Based from a research I read, CBD oil reduce the growth and development of cancerous cell. The scientist are doing further research to prove that CBD can be used to cure cancer. Hope this will be successful to reduce the number of breast cancer cases that have reached over 2 million last 2018. If you have time, read more about CBD oil, this page) have a good explanation about CBD. Hope this is helpful.

godisone,

CBD is non-psychoactive. It cannot get you high, so no worries on that account. Additionally, if applied topically, even if there is some THC in the product (labeling should clearly state this), there is no psychoactive effect

godisone,

Any time! I have a humorous story for you. My older dd, 35, has been having some back pain and asked me about CBD. We texted back and forth and it turned out that she was not feeling comfortable going to a “pot club" as she put it. After correcting her, dispensary is the correct word, she went to the place I've patronized for several years. I advised her, as did the bud tender to try an oral formula with a tiny bit of THC . She chose an 18:1 (CB:THC) tincture. It contains such a small amount of THC, that it is essentially non-psychoactive. My dd is lovely but a bit dramatic. She took the recommended dose and swears she felt a bit high. This would be like swallowing half a thimble full of beer and saying you felt drunk. When I explained this to her she simply said, “Oh", but has not reported any similar feelings since and is happy with the pain relief.

Find a reputable dispensary and be very clear about what you need. A knowledgeable bud tender should be able to steer you to the right products.

BTW, my mo knows I use cannabis. I use products with higher THC to help me eat and she's fine with that. When I was dx' eight years ago, my state was medical only. One of the social workers at my medical facility offered to assist me in getting my medical cannabis card 😁 Doctors, in my state, do not and have never “prescribed” cannabis. For those who use for medical purposes they simply provide documents saying the use of cannabis is for medical reasons.
