Marijuana or CBD oil after seizure?

Mon, 06/12/2017 - 23:20
I am curious to know if marijuana or CBD oil helps with the pains and headaches after a grandmal seizure. I have seizures every so often maybe once or twice a month and have been diagnosed with epilepsy for the past 8 years. I am currently 18 and I heard that these can help for the I don't feel right feeling afterwards as well as the tremendous headaches and soreness. Thank you very much!

Cannabis oil is one of the

Cannabis oil is one of the few things I can put in my mouth after a seizure without it causing more pain to my tongue, including water. I just had seizures again almost 3 days ago and was only now able to eat a little today. I think it may help with the after seizure headache too but for me it helps my physical body pain the most. Coughing should be avoided as it can increase a headache so vaporize rather than smoke or take edibles. It also helps with feeling depressed from the situation of having seizures, not able to work, make money... Etc. Compared to all of the other pharmaceuticals I've been experimented on with, cannabis is a pussycat. Still there are a lot of different kinds and you will have to find the right one for you. Everyone can be different and what may work well for one person may not with another. See what is available to you, talk to people and see what kinds might help your needs and start slow. You have no tolerance to begin with so with some good kinds you will only need one or two hits... Not a whole joint for example

I wish there was more research done! Sometimes I find it helps sometimes I find it worsens my symptoms. I think it makes a difference what you are smoking (thc levels cbd etc) also history etc
