I would like feed back on CBD Oil. I am not interested in smoking medical marijuana, just using the oils. I am in year 26 of my Epilepsy and my seizures have intensified. I had over 80 last year and presently take 3880 mg daily of Epilepsy/Anxiety/Depression meds.
I am having great results with the CBD oils & have been able to stop the Keppra & Gabapentin, I had tried 3 other anticonvulsants. I also have severe chronic pain which I only need an occasional tramadol for break through pain. I don't like the THC in marijuana, I prefer a clearer head.
The hemp oil CBD does not have THC. I do not like the THC, I'm 60 & first tried marijuana oil last year, it also stopped my seizures but I did not like the THC. I don't like mind altering medicinals. That goes for pharmaceuticals with so many side effects.
I much rather use the pure hemp prepared in coconut oil that is a natural gift from God.
Has it helped with your seizures at all? My husband witnessed another Grand Mal this a.m. He said if I was in public, an ambulance would have been called. I know my Neurologist will suggest the VNS, which I am not interested in. That is why I am starting to look at medical marijuana. I live in Florida, so it is legal. I DO NOT want to smoke it. Feedback is greatly appreciated!! ๐
I love the cbd oils and since I live in California it's now legal so it's nice to not stress out over using it in hiding and it has greatly helped my seizures to calm down but I'm still on the meds keppra and gabapentin and Norco for chronic pain I would like to get off the Norco but it and the oils and the edibles really help alot plus with the oils edibles I've been able to walk more which has also helped.
I have a vns but it hasn't changed my seizure pattern at all , now had it switched off
