Hi

Has anyone tried the CBD treatments/oils?

If so could you advise what is the best and strength that should be used for Hormonal/Ostrigen BC.

Had Tumour removed and lymph glands and just finished radio therapy.

Have decided not having Chemo and would like info on the CBD from anyone who has or still is using for BC.

Many Thanks.

    Hi cal2013 , I didn't know about CBD oil until recently, I have very bad chemo induced peripheral neuropathy (cipn) My hands and feet just burn and it feels like I'm wearing socks and gloves made out of biting ants! Not getting better ,I had 2 kinds of chemo, first one 3 years ago, the second over a year and a half ago. I tried everything else, so decided to try the CBD oil. It does give me temporarily, pain relief. The brand I use is called Papa and Barkley pain relief balm. It's like a salve I rub on my feet and hands. It does have CBD and thc, but not the kind that gets you high. Short term pain relief but better than nothing. I'm in California, so lots of places to buy it. Hope that helps. I know some women also use it during chemo, for nausea and lack of appetite but I didn't know about it when I had chemo.
