With no help from many and varied drugs which only add more chemicals to the body with no effect does anyone know if CBD (not the one that makes a person high) is helpful or has tried this. If so, which one was used and was it an online purchase. From my research it is best to get pure CBD online and not at a brick and mortar store.

Members shared mixed experiences with CBD oil for fibromyalgia pain management, with some finding it helpful for taking the edge off symptoms and improving sleep, while others tried multiple strains and dosages without success. Several members recommended specific brands and sources, including Bluebird Botanicals online and Dr. Ginevra Liptan's Frida Botanicals line (which donates a portion of sales to fibromyalgia research), with practical tips like taking CBD separately from prescription medications and using higher-than-recommended doses. A recurring theme was the importance of personal experimentation since everyone responds differently, with members offering encouragement to try it despite mixed results and emphasizing that any relief from pain deserves support without judgment.

I use Bluebird Botanicals. They are online. Takes the edge off and definitely helps with sleep. I take a little more than recommend dose. Did a lot of research and feel this is a good product. Good luck, hope it works for you.

Dr. Ginevra Liptan has created a line of CBD products (only available in the USA). A percentage of sales go to Fibromyalgia Research.

Cbd oils work and good old Marijuana works for me also. Helps take the edge off of the pain. I live in Alaska and its legal here. This is my opinion and I don't want to hear negative comments about DRUG usage please. In my opinion marijuana is far safer than alcohol.
