Hi ya’ll, I just wanted to share some great news! I started taking a CBD pain blend 5 days ago along with a topical CBD balm and the redness and pain I have in my hands and feet has decreased by about 50%. I have been skeptical of CBD for a long time and never really wanted to try it. In the last month though my hands have gotten worse and I now have really painful swelling in the mornings. So I decided what the heck, imma try it. And its working and its a dang miracle!! I still have swelling BUT the redness and pain that went along with it are extremely reduced… no crying and pity parties or missed work this past week. I am amazed! I also got some courage and decided to take my dog for a walk around the block in 89 degree weather… it was super scary… but I did OK. My hands did start to burn towards the end but that is a major improvement from not being able to be outside for longer then 10 minutes without running for the AC inside.
Has anyone else had success with CBD? I would love to hear about it.
@graceee06 Thank you! I am using the pain blend Leaf therapeutics 15 mg CBD, 1 pill at night. And then the topical is Plus CBD hemp balm extra strength that I have been using 2-3 times per day. It has not completely gotten rid of the redness and pain but significantly reduced it and I am still in shock about it lol are you using any CBD products?
Wanted to give an update. I have been using the CBD products for almost 2.5 weeks. My anxiety and depression has been greatly reduced. So much in fact I have spaced out my therapy sessions by 3 weeks now. Redness and pain in my hands is still reduced BUT the swelling is still present. I am working with a homeopathic Dr to find another remedy for the swelling to combine with the CBD. I will let ya’ll know if we find anything!
One more thing, I do get bumps on my hands, possible chilblains that are very painful and the CBD balm has helped a lot!
Hi! I just purchased the same CBD brand you use, I’m nervous to try it. Did it make you feel high or not yourself? That’s my biggest fear, I have a 9 month old and really need to be alert for him! Also how are you doing? Any more improvements? Still taking the CBD?
I am so sorry I didnt see your reply sooner! When I first took the CBD pill it did make me sleepy so I always take that before bed. But other than that no side effects. I am still using the topical balm and taking the CBD pain blend. I will say that the redness has come back. It seems the bam has worn off in that sense. But it still works GREAT for pain in my hands. I am curious to see if this combo of CBD products still helps with my heat tolerance this year!
