Members shared overwhelmingly positive experiences using CBD products for rheumatoid arthritis pain and inflammation, with many reporting significant relief within days or weeks of starting treatment. Several members emphasized the importance of choosing high-quality products with clear dosing information, exploring different forms like oils, creams, chocolates, and pills, and considering full-spectrum or balanced THC-CBD ratios for better results, particularly in states where medical marijuana is legal. A recurring theme was the life-changing impact CBD had for some members who could not tolerate traditional RA medications, with one member describing how a balanced cannabis oil helped them avoid permanent work disability after other treatments failed.

I have and have had really good success with it. However be careful when you buy it to see what the mg per serving is. Usually it is 500 mg per bottle or something like that and it is very expensive but I use kannaway which is an awesome company and they have a pure cbd oil that is a little pricey but it has 120 mg per dose. So I would take a half of a dose in my he morning and the other In The evening however in Illinois medical marijuana is legal here and I use that and it helps 150% better than just the cbd Does I think it has something to do with the autoimmune disease.
I would strongly suggest that if you are in a state that approves of marijuana as recreational or medical it is an amazing solution to the pain if you get the correct strain. They also have some that you can grow that has only cbd In it. So it looks smells tastes like marijuana but very low low thc.

Look for a CBD Terposalate with a Certificate of Analysis to prove efficacy.

My wife was on Methotrexate and several prescription drugs for several years until we discovered CBD in Colorado. She started a regimen and was able to discontinue all RX medications within 30 days. I suggest that you be selective in your choice of product as
Full spectrum products labeled 500mg contain only 50-100mg CBD whereas CBD Isolate contains the full 500mg of CBD.

I had CBD oil with a small percentage of THC like 1% helped far more than hemp oil.
