MEDICINAL CANNABIS WARNING / DISCLAIMER

There is no pharmacological free lunch in cannabis or any drug. Negative reactions can result. A small percentage of people have negative or allergic reactions to marijuana. Heart patients could have problems, even though cannabis generally relieves stress, dilates the arteries, and in general lowers the diastolic pressure. A small percentage of people get especially high heart rates and anxieties with cannabis. These persons should not use it. Some bronchial asthma sufferers benefit from cannabis; however, for others it may serve as an additional irritant.

  1. What a drag, Israeli firm grows 'highless' Cannabis

    Marijuana is an illegal drug in Israel. Medicinal use of it was first permitted in 1993, according to the health ministry. SAFED - They grow in a secret location in northern Israel. A tall fence, security cameras and an armed guard protect them from criminals. A hint of their sweet-scented blossom carries in the air: rows and rows of cannabis plants, as far as the eye can see. It is here, at a medical marijuana plantation atop the hills of the Galilee, where researchers say they have developed marijuana that can be used to ease the symptoms of some ailments without getting patients high. Sometimes the high is not always what they need. Sometimes it is an unwanted si…

  3. Amazing results with FEMALE IMPOTENCE

    My inability to reach climax during intercourse is psychologically caused, I do just fine by myself. I just wanted to report my finding. I know everyone already knows here that weed makes sex better, but in my case it was a revelation and an enormous leap forward. I also would add as advice to anyone trying to use it for this purpose: it's extremely dependant on the strain, and there's just no knowing what the hell it is in Australia, unless you grow for yourself. Basically you need a higghh flying Sativa. I have heard Sweet Island Skunk works really well.

  4. Cannibus to help with depression?

    What the title states. I've had to swap three anti d's now, this one being Pristiq at the base dosage of 50mg, and when I was on Citralopram I had slight chest pains and my heart rate sped up for the first few minutes, which I helped settle by slowing how fast I inhaled. I'm just wondering if cannibus has a bad rep with Pristiq? Because its in my doctor's notes that I smoke semi-regularly, about once a fortnight to a month, and it's only ever to help me sleep and to kick start my appetite again - nasty side effect of anti d's with me is insomnia and lack of appetite within two days - and he actually suggested I buy some to try and help with the first weeks of this new ant…

  6. Tinnitus, ringing ears and headeaches

    Hey guys, I got tinnitus and it's getting really bad. Got nothing from doctors, they can't do anything for me. I've notice cannabis does help, are there any specific strains anyone is testing or using. It blows that we don't have medical cannabis. I got to mention, it's ok in public, but it's really painful in quiet places. It's constantly buzzing, whistling and popping. Cheers.

  7. Is that mould on my weed?

    Iv had this about a month and just noticed a fine brownish yellow dust forming all over which wasn't there when I got it. I know this because I separated it into portions in case any became contaminated with mould which has happened to me before (although I remember is to be white, fuzzy and smelly had to throw it all away :-(). The other portions are fine. This doesnt smell at all. WTF is it?? The photo shows the dust from where I tapped the bud on the plate. Not sure if it is easy to see on the bud in the pic. Has anyone seen this before?? Do you think it is safe to vape or should i flush it??

  11. Cannabis for anxiety & stress

    How good is cannabis as an anti-anxiety med? I suffer occassionally from anxiety/stress/insomnia from time to time and I hate it. Was prescribed Lexapro which stole my sex drive so went off it just as fast plus it never made me feel less anxious anyway. To be honest only things that have worked is something like Oxycodone or Ambien though these can't really be taken during the day even though they actually make me feel happy. How would you use cannabis if you were treating yourself for anxiety/stress etc? Cheers
