CBD Oils?

Fri, 04/18/2014 - 14:27
I am curious if anyone has tried the new CBD oil to control their epilepsy. I have read many great things about it really controlling seizures and maybe trying it myself. I have been on about 9 different medications now and am going back on Monday for another one. If this round of medications doesn't work I am really thinking about the CBD oil. Does anyone have experience with this? Or know someone who does?

We are from New Zealand, our child has focal aware seizure (with myoclonus movements). We have tried from low percentage to very high percentage CBD without any results. We have also tried various products such as the 5000 Charlotte's Web Everyday Advanced, the Pytho Plus 3%, and Endoca 3% among others with no real result, however it was the Naturalwonoil 3% that had the best effect and it was the first CBD we tried. Unfortunately we were unable to continue the purchase, nonetheless, we have just resumed the purchase and we are anxious to see the great results again. As I said before the 3% Naturalwonoil worked best for our little boy, highly recommend it.
