Nocturnal (sleep) seizures and CBD oil.
Tue, 10/01/2019 - 11:25Ive had seizures in my sleep since i was in 3rd or 4rd grade. I am now 37yrs old, been on Tegretol XR since then. The medication controls my seizures well, but if im exhuasted with little sleep I will have a seizure. My seizures consist of my muscles tensing up for 20-30secs and then i just keep sleeping. I do not want to keep taking meds for rest of my life and have heard great things about the use of cbd oil controlling seizures. Ive purchsed Charlotte's Web 17mg cbd oil. Has anyone tried this brand or any other with great results? what is your regimen?
