My CBD oil day 1

Hey all,

I just bought the 300mg CBD +CBDa CBD oil from Endoca.  I did the serving size which is 15 ml which equates to about 3-5 mg of CBD I think.  I don't know if that's enough.  How much CBD are you all taking to see benefits?  Do I need to take a much higher amount?

I think to try to get an antibacterial effect from CBD oil you will need to take quite a bit of it.

There was a member Ohyran who was taking 400mg a day and documenting his experiences in this thread: www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=30&m=3427199

If you use an oil that has similar amount of THC to CBD it greatly increases the antibacterial effect at lower doses compared to CBD only oil.

From my experience low doses of CBD oil are mostly just anti inflammatory.

The research that Dr. Murakami and Eva Sapi have done I believe is just with the CBD oil.

Also, on Dr. M's fb page - there are people who are reporting that they got better with the CBD oil, not using the THC. And, I am taking the amount he suggested - which is 1/2 grain of rice size.
But, it is 41% CBD - so I think that is quite strong.

I'm not interested in the THC - not wanting the psychoactive side effects.

Dave - can you check what the percent of CBD oil is in your product?
I think that's important.

Mine is high CBD - at 41%.

Dr. M. recommended the CBD oil - not with THC - and he called me and told me where to buy it from. When I called the place, they confirmed that the one I was buying was the one that people are buying who have lyme.

So, no, I don't think the THC is necessary.

I'm not sure yet, if I'm seeing effects. A couple weeks prior to starting the CBD oil, I went back on antibiotics for Bart - using a pulsing approach - M/W/F - Minocycline and Rifampin twice daily Th/F - Ceftin twice daily.
Sat and Sunday no antibiotics.

I think I herxed this past Saturday night. I woke up several times in the night with sweating and anxiety. That hasn't happened to me for many months. I have only been having one wake up in recent months...and either no anxiety...or a wee bit.

But, last night I slept fine...one wakeup - but no anxiety, or sweating. Got right back to sleep.

I've tried it both ways, using decarboxylation to adjust relative thc/cbd ratios.
Best therapeutic effect for me has been about 50/50.

I, too, dislike the buzz, I find it kind of unpleasant. But as it turns out, thc is important as it has neuroprotective effects and seems to potentiate the abx for me. I get massive kills using abx and MJ tincture together.

Lots of ups and downs, cd, but way better than being dead. I think I've gotten back from the edge a bit so that's good. Running out of money so that's bad. Maybe I'll post an update, it's been a very very eventful year!
