    Catch-22 with Chronic Fatigue

    Hey, just wanted to update here, thanks everyone for your support and kindness and for checking in with me. It means a lot. The appointment went well, I've recieved my prescription and have begun using my medication. CB1 were welcoming, helpful, very understanding, and there was none of the fuss...

    Catch-22 with Chronic Fatigue

    Thanks @R3d4 - you're right, it is easy to overthink it, isn't it? It's hard being on the cusp of accessing something that might actually help. Tense, you know? This has been really nice, though.

    Catch-22 with Chronic Fatigue

    Thanks, I hope so too. It's hard to be certain, and it's hard not to feel like I might have the rug pulled from under me again - this conditionl has turned my life upside down and inside out, it's hard to feel confident in things. But I recognise that that's the effects of stress more than...

    Catch-22 with Chronic Fatigue

    Hey thanks both, yeah I've had a bit of back and forth with Curaleaf and they're really good so far with personal responses and encouraging replies. I'm pushing ahead, have put in the order for the medical record (have to do it manually because am in Scotland) and like I say, curaleaf do seem...

    Catch-22 with Chronic Fatigue

    Kind of just posting to vent a little, though any advice or insights would of course be welcome. Moving through the process of trying to get assessed for MC, I keep coming up against the requirement to have tried 'two conventional treatments.' Chronic Fatigue, the condition that I (and many...

    Intros Hi everyone

    Just found this website this evening after running about sending inquiries to a binch of different clinics. I'm dealing with CFS. I'm amazed to find that CBD oil offers huge relief from symptoms, which is amazing since there seems to be no conventional treatment route available for this...
