Members shared their experiences with CBD for fibromyalgia pain, with several reporting meaningful improvements in mobility and pain management, including one member who began walking again after years of limited movement using a medipen. Many members discussed practical considerations like finding affordable options through local growers, shopping at medical marijuana dispensaries where staff provide personalized guidance, and exploring specific strains like ACDC and Charlotte's Web, which is known for seizure patients and contains little to no THC. A recurring theme was the trial-and-error process of finding the right dosage and product, with members encouraging persistence despite the cost and emphasizing that CBD is legal in all 50 states unlike THC-containing medical marijuana.

My son encouraged me to get my own card instead of him getting it for me so I could talk directly with the shop people. He was so right. I have been in two shops and the personal care and knowledge and passion there is in these shops is incredible. I also researched a strain and called the shop it was from and spend a good hour on the phone with them. To bad pharmacists and doctors prescribing meds cant take the time to really try to wiggle it closer to what we need. There is still time for experimentation, trial and error to dial it in!

Yes. I investigated and ACDC is supposed to be the best strain. I found ointment in the bay area.

Cbd works, I get mine at green roads world online. Once you figure out the dosage for you, it is worth the money
