Necro thread revival. I use CBD tincture or distillate for pain. I either put it under my tongue (tincture) or the distillate you can add to other things and drink, etc- its flavorless. It reduces its effectiveness, though, if you do it this way, because it takes longer to be absorbed through the stomach. Most shops will have it- if you can find 'full spectrum' get that, it has other CBD compounds that are usually distilled out in the cheaper types. Those other compounds (still not THC) together are usually more effective. Good luck and I hope you have found something that works for you. Its hard, believe it, I know.

1shrekthetank I was Diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 1992. I was lucky because the doc I was seeing was a published expert on it. He teaches yearly senaires on the subject. A lot of people who gets tagged with chronic pain syndrome I would guess have Fibromyalgia.  it works kind of like you described. I can and will put you in bed for a week or more.

As far as CBD it's my opinion that the CBD only works well with the right type of THC and the right combination 

I have tried all the over the counter ones, DELTA 8, DELTA 9, and DELTA 10. 

The best CBD/THC oil that I know of is Rick Simpson Oil. One of my Bro's wife has been taking it for years and she swears by it. You have to be careful because there are a lot of imposters.

I'm really sorry to hear about your pain flare-up, and I appreciate your service as a veteran. It's great that you're proactive about discussing your options with your VA doctor. CBD oil is a topic worth bringing up, as it has shown promise for managing pain and various conditions for some people, often with fewer side effects compared to traditional medications.

It's important to have an open and honest conversation with your doctor about your preferences and concerns regarding multiple prescriptions. They can provide guidance on whether CBD might be a suitable option for you and how it could potentially fit into your treatment plan.

And if you're interested in exploring CBD products or other related items, you can check out a head shop online. They have a range of accessories that might complement your journey to managing pain more naturally.
