Members shared mixed experiences with CBD and hemp oil for fibromyalgia pain, with some finding temporary relief from flares, IBS, fatigue, and mental health symptoms, while others reported no improvement at all or benefits that faded after a few weeks. Several members mentioned specific brands like Hempura and Hempbombs, noted that higher strengths can be costly, and suggested that vaping CBD might be more effective than oils, with one member sharing that cannabis helped reduce opioid use significantly. A recurring theme was the importance of managing expectations, as CBD is not a cure and results vary widely from person to person, with some experiencing initial hope followed by disappointment when symptoms returned or resistance developed.

I had my heart set on the fact that CBD oil was going to be the answer for my pain but after three different strains and different dosages, I finally gave up as it wasn’t working for me! I was very upset but so glad I tried it cause now I no longer wonder if it was the answer to all my prayers!!

Now remember this has been my personal experience, i have lots of other conditions and a lot of really strong meds. I have heard mixed reviews from others some swear by it and some had a similar experience to myself. Remember if you do try it it can be costly and it might not work long term. The taming of my symptoms for the short time it worked was great but the symptoms came back with a vengence and the dissappointment is huge so prepare. I hope it works for you if you try it and i hope this helped, good luck.
