Would I need to check with my doctor concerning my husband's meds he takes and if CBD oil can be used ? Thank you all.

CBD is Cannabis oil, sorry I should have spelled it....I have read many good things about CBD oil for Parkinson's and Dementia as well as pain. A lot of benefits and it is legal because the THC has been removed. Legal in all states.

I personally hv been taking drops 3;wks now & Ive been sleeping so much better. Would like to use for mom as she gets no sleep with her PD Dopa...melatonin has not worked for her. Has anyone tried cbd at night yet? How did it effect you with your PD meds?? Thank you

A lot of doctors won't even consider telling you to try it because it is still illegal in some states, thus there are no studies to go by. But you can find many places that will sell it online. It helps a lot of people, but like meds, you have to experiment to get the right dosage.

But did it help? You can always add it to something to eat. Jam, peanut butter, jello.

I tried CDB Oil but I felt like I might be a better person if they had put in a pinch of THC. I notice that we never laugh anymore!
