I ran it by my Neuro, she said go for it, I've been on the oil for 3-4 months, not much help on my tremor, but a great help for my back pain, will continue to use it at this point. Hope this helps

I take 1 ml of CBD oil 3 times daily for pain management (I also have severe arthritis, bilateral knee replacements and bulging discs in my neck and back). The CBD oil definitely helps with pain management though doesn’t eliminate pain. At night I take a low dose combination of CBD and THC to help me sleep. With it, I can usually sleep till 6 am. Without it, I’m awake at 3 am and cannot go back to sleep
