CBD Oil

Sat, 01/28/2017 - 03:48
I have heard a lot of good things about CBD oil and am looking into it for treatment for myself. I am 22 and have been diagnosed with epilepsy since I was 12. I have been on a few different meds, I am currently on Keppra 1,000 mg 2x a day and Zonegran* 100 mg 1x day. I have not had a grand mal seizure since April 2016 but I have partial/absent seizures multiple times a day. Have any of you guys tried CBD oil? How has it helped you? And does anyone know the equivalent CBD I would need to take for my seizure meds if I got off of them? Thank you! Xoxo
