So tired of pain willing to try CBD oil

You don’t have to inhale it into your lungs. I’m hearing of some just puffing like it’s a cigar and holding it in the mouth. It then works like a sublingual application. Only not a lot of extra oil or syrup. So the mucus membrane will still absorb the CBD. Then just exhale through your nose. Hope that helps you out.

@cooksalot Nothing could be further from the truth. You are hearing VERY wrong. This is why these substances should be used very carefully. CBD oil tinctures or sublingual products should never be used in vaping . … Instead of the carrier oil being a lighter substance used for vaping , it is intended for eating. They are two entirely different materials used by the body in very different ways. The most popular carrier oils for CBD oil are MCT or hemp seed oil. On the other hand, CBD vape oils are only meant to be used in vaping devices which at this point are VERY dangerous. One death is too many. There has been more than one.

FWIW CBD in any form does not list Fibro as one of the conditions treated because it doesn’t. The action of cannibis effects endorphin production (increases it) This is the common cause of FMS. So while a THC high may help you not notice whats going on, (so does copious amounts of alcohol) the net effect is to increase disease action.

Exactly! That’s why there’s a sudden onslaught of hospitalization.

You’re just repeating what I keep saying. I have not been saying to vape the oil. I’ve been saying oil should never be Vaped. I keep saying if the stuff someone tries to sell you has any oil or vitamin E, DO NOT TOUCH IT! Matter of fact I just found CBD for vaping in wax and resin forms of CBD for vaping. I wouldn’t touch those with a 12 foot pole. :biohazard:

I think you misunderstood me. I’m saying the people who are buying the lie that the oils are “healthier” and “safer” than traditional vaping solutions are putting themselves and others at risk. The company I got my vaping eJuice from does not condon the vaping of anything with oils. They make their eJuice from an isolate powder not oil. That’s why I chose them to start with.

No CBD is not listed to treat fibro. It’s still being researched. I know that here at the Idaho Falls Arthritis Clinic Dr. Scoville is doing clinical research on CBD. All my doctors are wanting to know how it effects me and my fibromyalgia. That’s why I joke about being their guinea pig. They are excited to see how it effects me since the rumors in the medical world is it’s making a difference. Honestly today should be one of those days where I should feel like I stood in front of my son’s semi. After I’ve had 5 Ibuprofen. This has been the first time in a long time that I feel like I do on a good summer day. I may take 2 Ibuprofen since the knee I had surgery on last month is a little sore again.

I don’t smoke pakalolo, THC is not legal in my state. Matter of fact for someone who was born and raised in the state of Hawaii I just was never interested in wasting my money for a fast high. I don’t like the way painkillers make me feel, thus all the Ibuprofen.

I’m just saying that it’s helped me to deal with fibro and wanted to share. Sorry :pleading_face:

And I DO NOT ENCOURAGE ANYONE TO VAPE ORAL SOLUTIONS MADE WITH ANY OILS. :persevere:

I didn’t misunderstand you at all. Vaping sublingual products will kill you. Vaping products can not be absorbed Sublingually, so MUST be inhaled in order to be absorbed so the cigar-puffing theory is out the window. BTW you live south by just a few hundred miles from the world’s TOP expert on Medical MMGj and CBD. Dr. Anna Chacko in Butte MT. retired as one of the Top Nuclear Medicine Docs in a Major East Coast Medical Center. No need to be a Guinea Pig.

While I agree that what she said it’s not accurate you are doing a great disservice to suggest that fibro cannot be treated with CBD or thc. It doesn’t “mask” anything (and for that matter if you are going to say that… That’s what all FDA approved meds for fibro do… Mask symptoms. There is nothing pharmaceutical that “treats” fibro because there’s no known cause if don’t therefore it can’t be treated… There are just medications to deal with symptoms (poorly). I had been taking CBD oil (hemp) for several years with more success than I had with tramadol. Then my state started an Opioid alternative program this year where you could get a medical cannabis card if you had a condition for which you could attain a prescription for an Opioid. I got my card at the end of June and after a few weeks of trial and error and meetings with the dispensary workers I have never felt better. My Fibro pain had been hanging out at 7-8 daily and barely coming down for months. Since starting medical cannabis my pain levels have been around 1…& At times 0. Obviously my Fibro is still there but I have been sleeping 8 straight hours a night and waking up refreshed. I use micro-dosing tablets at a 1:1 ratio of CBD: THC and there is no high feeling with that. I use patches and creams as well. I have my life back because of medical cannabis and rarely am I high (I eat a gummy before bed and if I don’t go to bed and fall asleep within 1.5 he’s off eating it then I will experience the high feeling)

The mechanism of FMS is well known and understood. It simply central sensitization involve hyperexcitability of spinal dorsal-horn neurons that transmit painful impulses to the brain. The etiology is unknown. Cannabis also causes central sensitization and hyperexcitability of spinal dorsal-horn neurons. While it may not be pain impulses the mechanism is the same. Tramadol is no longer prescribed as is anything that binds to the bind to opioid receptors (these are called opioid receptors but have nothing to do with opiates) in the brain. Anything that causes central sensitization has the potential increase pain significantly. If you get help from a CBD:THC, great (micro dosing is likely why) but the fact is that it is still not recommended for FMS because of the huge potential for the opposite to occur. The rush from opiates is causing all manner of weird things to happen.

I absolutely 1000% disagree with you
