My doctor has tried signing me up for the new Epidiolex CBD Oil. I have questions on these topics. Have any of you tried the new Epidiolex and haven't or had any seizures while taking this? What is the difference between this specific "Epidiolex" and other CBD Oils that could be offered?

I want to be treated my seizures by only CBD oil, as it is organic only, is it possible?
The FDA is suppose to be approving this new medication. From what I read there is suppose to be cannabis in this. Is that true or is it a synthetic version of cannabis.

I will ask my brothers Neurologist if they can prescribe Epidiolex, does anyone take this medication? How is it working for you?

I’d like to hear from others that have used this fda approved cbd.

Hi I just got approved for my medical marijuana card for epilepsy and I have no idea how to use it for medical purposes. Does anyone else use it? And what do you use Capsules, flower, extract etc. And what strain/percentage of thc to cbd?
I have been taking Epidiolex, which does not have the THC in it. I know the dose I am taking. That makes me feel better.

In a way I am lucky. Before Medicare kicked in, the only… read more
