CBD Oil and Breathing
Dear Dr. Mahler:
I am writing because I want to learn more about CBD oil and whether it can help my breathing difficulty. I have had COPD for about 10 years, and find that it is getting harder to breathe. My medications are ProAir, Advair Diskus, and Spiriva powder. I used to golf 3-4 times a week, but found it too hard to play with my group this past summer. So, my main activity is playing cards in the afternoon.
One of my girlfriends was reading about CBD oil and suggested that I try it. However, I checked out information on the internet, but it is really confusing. I want to see if the oil can help me feel better and breathe easier, but I don’t want to get high.
What do you know about CBD oil for my COPD?
Many thanks.
