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.

  2. New Study: Cannabis Can Help Schizophrenia Patients

    Isn't it amazing that this doesn't seem to have made one mainstream news source, given it's an Australian study?! http://www.opposingviews.com/i/new-study-m...hrenia-patients Yet this story, another study by the same group, was covered extensively by the MSM: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/national/...6-1111116525007 Makes ya wonder. Still, interesting new study there...

  6. Having some respiratory problems

    Its been 2 weeks since I started smoking cannabis as an alternative way to manage my daily pains I live with due to a medical condition. The reason I chose cannabis was because I have a hypersensitivity to opiates and I experience adverse reactions every time I was taking my opiate based pain medication. With cannabis I haven't had this problem but instead I have found my chest and lungs feeling uncomfortable and I developed a cough and wheezing sound when I breathe so I freaked out and stopped smoking. I am now in the process of looking to buy a quality vaporizer but I was wondering does the respiratory symptoms settle down eventually ? Also I want to invest in a qu…

  8. New Medical Marijuana User

    Hello everyone, As I have become older and my health has taken a turn for the worst I have become a regular marijuana user. I am a new user to this website so forgive me if I'm asking the wrong questions in the wrong place. However i just wanted to know where i could purchase roaches (the rolly cardboard stuff that u kinda place your mouth on). And king size paper to place my product in. In taking a guess id say you would buy this stuff from a store such as Smokemart. By the way i live in south australia. Thanks for your help and time.

  10. Having trouble sleeping

    G'day All, Due to some recent events I'm finding that I am unable to get anymore than 2 hours sleep at any given time, and, it's really starting to take it's toll. I have tried Valerian, Kava and Doxylamine succinate ( Dozile ) with little or no effect at all. Even 30mins of exercise a few hours before " bedtime" Having a smoke isn't doing it either unfortunately. I really don't want to hit the world of Benzo's or similar. Can anyone suggest a natural sleep remedy that may help me on my quest to the land of nod. Thank You as always

  12. Budtender coming to town!

    Hey everyone, I'll be coming to the brisbane - noosa area for the first two weeks of may. I am a medicinal budtender at a dispensary here in the states. I am coming over for my wedding in Noosa, my wife's from Melbs, I'll be surfing mostly but if anyone wanted to do an interview about the medicinal movement here and how rapidly things are changing or needs advice anytime on strain selections for ailments please ask! I help out about 150 different patients with their weekly medical needs. I really think Aus needs to have a medicinal program similar to ours, as should everywhere. The difference it is making in the lives of some patients is astounding. Can't wait…

  15. Cerebral palsy and cannabis

    Due to the fact that my youngest child has recently been diagnosed with mild Cerebral palsy I am on a mission to find as much information on treatments as possible. He is a long way from being old enough to share a bong with me but I would like to keep tabs on any research in this area for future reference . His symptoms are mild (no muscle spasms or fits) so hopefully he is only ever in need of it's analgesic properties and not it's muscle relaxant ones. If anyone comes across related studies or other relevant information please provide a link or description so that anyone else who is interested can have a look too. I will be dumping any credible articles or studies he…
