Members shared mixed experiences using medicinal marijuana and CBD oil for chronic pain, with many finding that CBD helps make pain more bearable rather than eliminating it entirely, while also providing relief for anxiety, nerve pain, and sleep disturbances. Several members described practical approaches, including using CBD oil during the day to maintain function and THC oil at night for deeper relaxation and better sleep, making homemade edibles with cannabis, and starting with lower doses to find the right amount for individual needs. A recurring theme was frustration over accessibility and cost, particularly in the UK where it's not yet available on prescription, alongside recognition that while these natural alternatives don't remove all pain, they can provide meaningful relief when conventional options fall short.

I used cbd oil made from cannabis, and i found it really helps, especially with anxiety. It doesnt take pain away just makes it slightly more bearable. Try www.cbdbrothers.com

I use cbd oil in the day time. That way that I can still function. I use THC oil at night before I go to bed. The THC helps you relax your nerves which helps the pain relief of it and it helps you have a much better sleep.I Do CBD oil helps during the day so that you don't get the high effect from the THC so you can function but still have nerve relief pain relief. It doesn't take all your pain away but it helps relieve it so it's not to the extent of unbearable. I have used it for a year now the biggest thing that I can say is you start off with so many milligrams and then you have to adjust it to how it works or add to it or reduce it depending on how your body responds to it. Together they are a good alternative for pain.

I use cbd, and other edibles. I made cookies with about 3gs of weed, and find that it helps me sleep at night. I can mix cookies and t4s together, and that works fairly well for rls, and surface pain. Difficult to ease the deep pain.

You can't get it on Prescription in the U.K. Yet!!
I am trying to acquire it from another source.
I hope it won't be long b4 we catch up with other countries.
After all,it is a natural Plant,not a synthetic drug.
Why shouldn't we be allowed to use it??
