    As there hasn't been a post on this discussion in almost 2 years I just thought I'd pop on to say hello and welcome you to the forum Tony.

    Althought CBD oil may relieve pain we would always recommend speaking to your medical team first, especially as you're having chemo as it may interact with the CBD.

    If you'd like to find out more about the effects of cannabinoids then do give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m as they're very knowledgeable in this area. 

    Kind regards,
