Hi, I am a 29 year old active male and have been recently diagnoses with Osteoarthritis of the Lumbar spine, doctors were fobbing me off with ' You are too young to have any issues' until my work got me an MRI and showed this, anyway my pain has been getting worse and worse, I have tried everything , anti inflammatorys, tramadol, muscle relaxants, excercise ie swimming stationary cycling walking, soothing gels patches , cbd, chiropractics, physio, pilates..you name it! And nothing ia getting rid of my back pain .anyone have any tips at all?? I am waiting on my appointment with the Orthopaedic specialist at the minute.

      There should be a little envelope beside Lee's name, or you can just click on Lee's name.  That will take you to the profile page where you can send a private message.

    Hello,

    I have degenerative disk disease OA in my spine and neck and tried everything you mentioned, with little luck. I've been reading about CBD and it seems it may help many ailments. I hope to try it since it is made from hemp.
