the CBD oil available isn't the same as the medical strength one.My D tried the CBD oil for Fibromyalgia but it sadly didn't help.She's on the waiting list for a trial of medical cannabis ,so fingers crossed that she gets on it and that it helps

Its worth a try. In medicine form i dont thi nk there would be a legal problem. A close family member used it in her cancer treatment, and it helped.

I don't know whether cannabis oil helps for headaches but an acquaintance (a nurse) is having very good results with cannabis gel capsules controlling the spread of her cancer. She says the consultant is "incredulous" - although it is apparently illegal to treat cancer some conditions with cannabis extract medicines. I gather that the medical benefits of cannabis is under-researched due to its long-standing illegal status.

There is a UK Patient Alliance for cannabis products, perhaps they would have advice for you, you may have come across them in your research: www.upalliance.org/upa/

Has anyone tried cannabis oil? I am trying to find some relief from nightly headaches.
I have been suffering for around 5 years,they always start at the back of my head and work round to the left over my eye.Taken all kinds of painkillers,which just take the edge off.Had all tests done,Doctors don’t know what causes them,tried cutting down on caffeine, nothing seems to work.
Have been researching Cannabis oil / tablets, very mixed reviews.Would appreciate any info.
