CBD Oil Fixed Chronic Back Pain
originally posted by: SecretsoftheBlueApples
BL: Few MGs of CBD Oil fixed my major long term back pain in a day where $100000s of yours/mine Tricare Tax dollars couldn't!!!
Soooo...I literally just medically retired from the Military after 23+ years, with numerous injuries stemming from all those years as a Security Forces member. 100% disability rating from the VA. CBD oil is prohibited as per DoD policy so I couldn't take any despite seeing it help my wife's pain immediately. Now, I've been through dozens of Doctors/Specialists with numerous surgeries trying fix my issue where my entire body from the waist down is in severe pain/numbness. I also have multiple stenosis in my upper back from years of running and gunning. So now that I'm a free man... I take one little CBD gummy and within an hour I'm at 80% pain relief. After 2 hours at 100%!!! Still pain free 12+ hrs later! Pretty freaking amazing, yet so damned sad that the DoD will pump our vets with Opioids and Poisons to no avail and ban this natural option.

I have also experienced the benefits MJ can give to severe back pain. I am one of those that get a weird effect from the psychotropic element of marijuana. Has anyone used the oil that doesn't have the mind altering effects? Is it as effective?

Fixed or numb it?

I've always said, and stand by it, that everything we need is already here on the planet! From St Johns Wort for depression to black cohosh for menopause.....whatever we need is here. Let's not forget that CBD/marijuana was actually legal and prescribed many years ago, until the Government started taxing it.

CBD oil is not THC, it is not supposed to have a psychotropic effect.

IMHO you are correct.
They are very different attributes of the plants life cycle and with a 100% certainty they have different impacts.....CBDs are present throughout the plants life cycle and THC is predominantly a byproduct of flowering or the later phases of the plants life cycle.The availability of each compound can be managed and tailored in different ways.THC is sympatheticlly supported by those seeking to combust and the plant is encouraged to produce this compound.Those seeking to not combust the plant sometimes look for a balance between the 2 compounds or simply utilise it before the THC is produced prodigously by the mature plant late in its life.

It's pretty incredible for many cases.
You wouldn't believe it unless you saw it work.
It cures this dog temporarily of what the owner called "seizures" for this dog:

It also works great for Parkinsons Disease. There is a documentary on it called Riding With Larry. Here is an excerpt:

That is the difference, my friend, between it being a valuable tool, and a toy. That it can do both, however, is not a crime to want. Relief for the worst of things, pleasure for the best.
And ABuse of anything, is encumbered with many negatives.
