CBD for Fibromyalgia Pt 1

[@katiehewitt1541]

You put it perfectly about the way trauma works on fibromyalgia it was caused by prolonged trauma and it keeps going till theirs damage to the nervous system this is a really good video

[@bhooper77]

This has precisely been my experience with CBD in helping my fibro. Doesn't stop pain directly, but helps me relax my fascia/muscles.

[@kaiserjames5290]

you probably dont care but if you are bored like me atm you can watch all the new movies and series on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my brother recently =)

@Kaiser James Yup, I have been using Instaflixxer for since november myself :D

Hi Bill, I'm trying to order CBD oil (w/o THC) for my mom, she suffers from fibromyalgia and it is getting worse. Can I ask you which dosage you would recommend? They have 5%, 10%, 15% all the way to 50%. And how many drops do you take and at what time (morning, night or spread around the day)? Please let me know, thank you.

[@rayatateo8094]

​@@i-am-ali1672hi, sorry if I'm late to this, but my mum takes a 10% dosage with a whole pipette day and night (which is safe for the percentage). She started off with 2-3 drops to see how she feels, and this is different for everyone but it has MASSIVELY helped her fibrofog. She feels like she can reason much better than before and the physical blurring of her eyes subsides in 5 minutes

Personally, CBD seems to cause a relaxed state for me, but I think part of that is just not needing to tune out pain every waking moment just so I can function... Gosh, this stuff sounds messed up when you write it down. I'm still new to CBD, but if I take the right amount I feel numb and I'm clumsy. Which sounds bad. It's because I've had fibro my whole life and I've used that pain normal people don't feel basically as my tactile feedback. Take away that overactive pain thing and it's kinda like I don't feel anything. Which sounds worse. Hopefully, anyone with fibro can understand what I mean when I say it's a good type of numb and I just need to recalibrate.

Note: not all strains of high grade marajuana have a sedative effect. Indica heavy strains give you the sleepy body high while sativa strains give you more giggles, energy, visual effects.

[@kd2533]

My experience too. It helps me sleep through the pain, tightness and wired feeling. Best sleep so far dealing with my Fibro/IC/Endo. I'm grateful for your book (on my kindle), plus these video presentations which pointed me in the right direction ☺

[@catsebn927]

Kendall Bridges, Did you experience any weight gain from taking it?

[@kd2533]

@@catsebn927 no weight gain. I did gain weight on LDN though. I get my CBD through my doctor (i have a TGA licence for chronic pain)

I just purchased CBD oil at the health food store. The man there was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Right now I can't function without painkillers. I'm sick of taking them and I'm praying that the CBD oil helps me to stop taking these painkillers. Fibromyalgia makes me feel like I have a hangover every day of my life. I just hate it! I can't call it pain per se. It feels like you were dropped out of a plane and landed on a sidewalk. I don't sleep at night, and I get overload where I feel like I can't do what I need to do. Basically, I can do one thing a day. When I grocery shop I can't do anything else. So, Lord willing CBD will be the answer I've been looking for. I sure hope so because I really want quality of life. I developed Fibromyalgia after I had invasive surgery. My nerves were traumatized during the surgery and I've never been the same since. I had a double mastectomy and a trans across my stomach for reconstruction. I've spoken with other women who have had the same procedure done and they told me they also had Fibromyalgia afterwards! My oncologist had no idea why I wasn't feeling better. So I put all my symptoms into the computer and Fibromyalgia came up. I went to a rheumatologist he confirmed it. I feel bad for anyone who tells me they have Fibromyalgia.

[@boudika100]

Sounds like you have been through a hard time...look up project 21 to take part in a cbd research trial,hope it helps

[@Freesoul54]

Well sorry sister for your pain. I am exactly the same as you. I want to know if CBD helped you at all

[@theroadking547]

Hope you find a way to make your life better.

Hi I just read your comment here and this was 3 years ago, how is your fibro now after you taking the cbd oil did it works is there’s any improvement? I just diagnosed of fibromyalgia just 2 weeks ago but I have the symptoms since April, iv been wondering using cbd oil , I hope you I can get a response from you I needed to know about cbd oil, I’m already been suffering of my condition 😢😢 hope you can help me, thank you in advance 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hello I’ve just found your fantastic KZbin segment … I was diagnosed in 2019 with fybro I’m on CBD and THC combined now on the vaporiser when the ain becomes to high I wanted to Thankyou so very much it’s hard to find a DR that really understands what we go through Your so caring Thankyou

[@Bhayat1000]

Thank you. Excellent video for fibromyalgia sufferers.

[@microtyger]

Great video! .. very basic with such a clear explanation, especially pertaining to fibromyalgia and potential application.

[@user-qe7vr1qb9g]

Thank you. You really know about fibromyalgia. I am glad I found you. I have just started cbd oil for everything mentioned.

[@arthurarsekey6634]

One comment - a person taking cannabis containing THC says "What good is it to me if I am not feeling pain but sitting on my couch all day?" THC is a stimulant and can enhance both physical function and endurance and mental focus. I have regularly used it before exercise for more years than I care too remember. Try a different strain. Excellent video though!

[@wickedroot912]

Thank you for this valuable personal insight.

[@ksedillo2233]

I have only purchased one CBD brand and it gives me horrible sore throat. It burns real bad. Wondering if others have this issue?

[@thandiwemasaisai5138]

Totally enjoyed watching this. What brand or type of Arnica would you recommend to combine with the cbd oil?

[@vision_walker]

CBD is the only thing that helps diminish. Not get rid of it, but just enough so I can sleep or do work at my computer. Since I have a bad past with Tylenol and can't take NSAIDS, CBD is the only things that I can take a lot of with no negative affects and pain relief.

[@andymcwilliams2141]

Trying several strains of cannabis used in producing CBD is necessary I think for a better conclusion of benefit or not. It is definitely worth the continued search for the right cannabis strain.

[@i-am-ali1672]

Hi, I want to order CBD oil for my mother since she has been struggling with firbromyalgia for a long time. And luckily here in the Netherlands there is a wide variety of CBD oil legally available. But I'm having trouble choosing the right one for her. Because there is CBD oil drops of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 30%. I honestly don't know what that means.. Does anyone know which percentage is most suitable for her condition? Thank you in advance.

[@vernaclemons6554]

Great Information. Thanks

[@deborahpalladino7386]

Thank you Dr. Lipton.

[@patgareau7694]

If I try CBD/THC for fibro do I still take the medications I am on now for pain, sleep etc.. Zopiclone for sleep & a muscle relaxer ?

[@7777lizabeth]

I wish I could hear someone with fibromyalgia who has had success with CBD oil. I can't seem to find that I only find people who say they're going to try it.

[@lt2339]

Go to your nearest CBD shop and go big or go home. If you don't know how to roll a blunt, lmao, get a pre rolled of their strongest pre rolled for pain. If you think you are too refined or too old to walk in and say I need to try your strongest flower for pain, you will be shocked by the amount of ppl over 50 trying out products. I've tried the chocolate, gummies, salves, ointments, creams, etc etc. Nothing helps as much as smoking it. BTW, did you know the body was created with receptors that only open to cannibinoids? Our creator gave us medicinal herbs to use.

[@kimbo500]

I want to thank you for providing this video! I am a former RN, who's on permanent disability due to Fibro (Dx 2007, Perm. Disability 2015). I am currently take Gabapentin, and I'm looking into taking CBD. It's so hard to get all of this info in 1 place, so this video is REALLY appreciated!! PLUS, from a doctor who understands! If anyone has any input that they feel they can share re: taking CBD while already taking Gabapentin, I'd be interested in getting your input. (I don't know if I would need to stop the Gaba first). I am also curious to know, if it is because of the effects on the Adrenal Gland that I get frequent intense chills (usually afternoon), and terrible sweating with small amounts of activity? Just curious. In 2 weeks, I am going to inform my primary MD that I am interested in introducing CBD. I don't know KZbin rules, but I'll ask anyways...Does anyone have any input re: quality of products for Lazurus Naturals? Thanks in advance, for any input anyone cares to share! Starting the next video now. :)

[@thefibroshow]

It's definitely important to talk with your health care provider about adding in CBD, so it's great you're going to do that! In my clinical experience, Gabapentin and CBD can be taken together safely, you just want to start low and go slow with the CBD. I also have a line of couple of CBD products I formulated for my patients to have a safe, and effective supply, in case you'd like to check it out. fridabotanicals.com

[@kimbo500]

@@thefibroshow , Thanks so much for your quick reply and input. I am learning a lot; and I am thankful to have CBD as an alternative option. My experience with meds, have been quite the experience! I am the definition of being HYPERSENSITIVE! If there is a 1% reported incidence in a PDR, it will probably include in me! :) It's been a haul, but you've got to keep smiling and trying! I am hopeful, that I will have some positive results with CBD. Just improvement in sleep, would be HUGE! Thanks for your link, I'll look into it! I did watch your 2nd video, and it was helpful too. I am very interested in your food book R/T Fibro patients. I read the intro pages shown on Amazon, and it's so refreshing that a doctor actually REALLY 'gets it'. Thank you again, have a terrific weekend!

[@ZanBlackk]

Thank you so much. I just learned the cause of my Fibromyalgia. I've been using CBD on and off most of this year. It's helped a lot with my anxiety but I didn't think it helped much with inflammation until I paid attention to my asthma. I have Trigger Finger and it didn't seem to help with inflammation in my hand. I'm finding that I need a higher dose and got a recommendation from a friend. I've found relief from the worst pain and inflammation from essential oil products from DoTerra.

[@wiseoldowl2551]

What doTerra products helped? Thanks

[@anthonypetrozzella7524]

Have you seen any results using CBD oil in patients with arthritis in their knees ?

[@thefibroshow]

For arthritis pain I find that often times a topical CBD can be more helpful. You might consider trying something like this: www.fridabotanicals.com/product/muscle2/

[@elksky]

I would like to know if it can be taken after heart attack or whether it will affect my heart meds. MY doctor doesn't have enough information. I also have peripheral neuropathy and Maigne syndrome

[@thefibroshow]

For the most part CBD doesn't interact with other medications when taken in small doses. If trying CBD is something you're interested in, the best way to do that is to start low, and go slow. Even if your doctor doesn't have enough information, it's always important to keep them in the loop about any new supplements you're adding.

[@katiehewitt1541]

Definitely CBT would be good because it’s all linked to stress and trauma I’m finding trauma therapy very helpful I don’t find the use of depression medication helps it makes the symptoms worse but anti anxiety drugs when used only occasionally help and taking a sleeping med I used to smoke weed but I stopped I smoked it for years probably was drawn to it because it relaxed me so much but ya it made me really lazy sorry I’m meant CBD my autocorrect put CBT instead of CBD lol

[@incensejunkie7516]

I had high hopes as I've known a few who've been helped, but so far I have not had luck with CBD oil, even with the most minute amounts of THC. The latter is what my Dr thinks I'm reacting to, I go into full flight mode. I seem to do better with low dose naltrexone (I have ME as well).

[@fiona5219]

My neurologist suggests using a 1:1 ration of CBD to THC... no high feeling but the CBD calms things, the THC reduces pain. So far, so good.

[@Freesoul54]

Unfortunately my body threshold for drug sensitivity has increased after 15 years of using oxy or morphine for pain. Tried CBD but didn’t touch my spasms and pain or sleep. THC unfortunately make me vomit

[@fibromyalgia09]

NEED TO HAVE thc IN CANNIBIS AS THIS IS WHAT HELPS WITH THE PAIN ALSO ATTACKS CANCER CELLS,,,,CBD OILS NOT WORKING BECAUSE ITS SYNTHETIC NO GOOD WITHOUT THC IN....
