I fell and broke my leg (just below my right hip) just after posting this. They won’t let me have my CBD in the rehab facility so I can’t look anything up for you right now. Not sure how long before I’m home again. I’m reasonably sure it was the chemo that weakened my bones. Thanks for the explanation about Sparks Naturals. I admit to being curious.

Thanks, Gail!

First of all, hoping that your chemo treatment is going well and that you will be moving beyond it soon.

Even with all of my research, I struggle with understanding dosing with many OTC CBD products. I am referring to Bed, Bath, and Beyond and the like. It is driving me nuts that some retail vendors are misleading the public by not educating buyers relative to strengths and dosing. I dropped Spark Naturals for this very reason: I no longer had confidence in their product representation relative to CBD. They were headed into a direction that made me extremely uncomfortable. which is too bad because their EOs are wonderful.

What is the strength of the .5ml CBD you are taking at 12-hour intervals and how does that translate into drops? I know that the 1 drop of 1000mg I take at night is equal to 2mg of CBD.

As far as the salve goes, I finally was able to get the consistency right (I used olive oil as a dummy while figuring that out) and began using the salve yesterday. We were in the car for 3 hours yesterday and my husband was sitting on his wallet and ended up with butt pain LOL. Used the salve and the pain was gone within 15 minutes. It will be a week or perhaps longer before we have used it enough to know whether it is worth the expense (versus using drops and other delivery methods).

Thanks for offering to answer questions; I appreciate it.

High Gorgeous: Plain Jane cannabis drops (CBD only, no THC)

at approximately 12 hour intervals. I have found it works wonderfully to combat nausea and also seems to help fight diarrhea. The flavor is vanilla and tastes rather like a Nilla Vanilla wafer without the crunch. There is no aftertaste.

I am blessed to live in California where it appears I need don’t need a medical letter and have full access to recreational marijuana (CBD) including plant propagation (to a certain degree). I was fortunate to (finally!) find a licensed dispensary only a mile from the facility from where I receive my chemo. The tinctures are batch tested at Stage 3. (The label verifies what they found the concentrations to be in each batch.) I am also using (periodically)

Wally Drops CBD lozenges (no THC), 20 pieces per bag, 2.5 MG per piece.

The flavor is Peach and I can’t tell any difference this between this and regular hard candy save for the CBD.

I concur about the Project: CBD website. It is a wonderful resource and I printed out some of the pages for my doctor.

I would be glad to answer any questions you may have based on my limited experience and look forward to your salve receipe.
