Just told i have fibromyalgia and myofacial chronic pain after a decade

[Goddessecliptic]

Hello and good day.
I hope this find you well. I am new and I know I found the right place. I was finally told by my rhumatogist that I have for the last 15 years fibro and myofacial disfunction and chronic pain. There is no help any where for this. I went to Hawaii institute of pain and they just want to give me sacral shot . My nerves are already gone. I have the ibs the throwing up everyday Gerd acid reflex. Who else feels like they feel like they walked over legos when thier feet hurt. I have a machine gun my husband uses on me and a hand held on those days I cant take it. I tell my daughter when she ask what it feels like i tell her and the doctor like when you have a bad bruise and you keep poking at it. I am never a 4 or 5 I am always a 7 or 9 Tried cdb and thc dont like feeling like i am not in control and stoned and paranoid just want to find pure cbd at my despensery not thc do they even make that. Most of the time now how bad it is i am in bed most the time just walking hurts me. I do my swimming and yoga and walk as much as i can. I have a walker and on bad days Ii have a wheel chair. I am in now PT for aqua excercises andbmassage and ultrasound treatment.

I have 48 visits to go.

Enough about me how are you doing today

Greetings @Goddessecliptic and welcome.
Yes, you can get pure CBD in a tincture. Most people report that they do not get any relief from pain by using only CBD with no THC in it, but it does help some people. I recommend that you go to a dispensary and do not buy CBD oil online, because there are a great many scams online and you never know if you are paying a lot just for coconut oil with nothing in it.

You also might consider getting a tincture from the dispensary that is mostly CBD with only, say, 20% THC. That way you don't get stoned, and yet the THC helps the CBD to work. I personally don't get any results from pure CBD, but I have a combination tincture that I can take and it doesn't get me stoned because I have worked out exactly how much to take so it won't.

If you have not yet t ried working with your diet and with other things that can help, I recommend that you do so, because sometimes we can make changes in our lives that will help at least a little bit. And any amount of relief, even if it is small, is worth the effort, as you know already because you are doing yoga (a very good thing to do) and swimming and walking. Give yourself a lot of credit for sticking with those things. I know it's hard to do sometimes and it's a good thing you are doing those things for yourself.

This forum is a supportive place, and we try to help each other. I hope you find it useful to you.

Edited to correct a mis-written sentence, saying I don't get results from pure THC. Meant to say I don't get results from pure CBD.

Thank you so much for that advice . I will be going to the despensery on Tuesday to get that. I appreciate all your guided help. My daughter found this group for me and I am so glad she did. So much great information.
Thank you for your kindness
Have a great day

This is a ms-writing!
What I meant to say is that I don't get any results from pure CBD.
Pure THC does definitely help, but as noted it will make a person stoned.

I am editing my post above so as to correct this. Sorry about that!
But everything else I said is accurate.

@Goddessecliptic Can you explain your myofacial pain?

I hope it’s ok to introject…I am excited to tell you the vibrating machine I ordered from Amazon is scheduled to arrive tomorrows. All the ordering and review info is on one of my latest posts under JanetlovesJesus. I will be posting again in four days to tell everyone if it works against my often 4-7 fibro muscle pain. I am praying it will help everyone who tries it. It may be pie in the sky…but at this point in my pain journey over the past three years all I’ve had to get pain relief has been ibuprofen and acetaminophen. Unfortunately, I had a comprehensive blood work up that shows possibly significant liver damage from these meds. I have always been very careful to follow the dosage instructions on any OTC drug, but apparently the aforementioned dosing instructions are not conservative enough to prevent liver damage. Of course I stopped taking the OTC’s the same day I got my blood test results. As I said before, I have great hope that the vibration machine will give me the relief I so desperately need.
