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.

A Medical Use Journal
Background At the age of 12 my lower back was broken and my spinal cord injured. As a result I've been in a wheelchair ever since. The lower back pain is tolerable and I could live with synthetics for the most part if that were the only problem. I had a through the knee amputation on my left leg about 5 years ago now and the docs bungled it while doing it. They damaged the nerve that runs down the inside of the leg and wraps around the knee. That causes me pretty much constant pain. Medication Currently taking about six Tramal 100SR, four Tramal 50, twelve Neurontin 600, two Endep 10, and four Panadine 500/8's a day. When this doesn't cut the pain I'll take as many as…

Scam Alert - Aussie Medicinal Seed & Don Medicinal Cannabis
Looks like another medical cannabis scam is making the rounds on Facebook... aka SCAMMER ALERT “Don Medicinal Cannabis” is changing his spots and has begun to specialize in "Medical Cannabis Seeds". DO NOT trust Don Medicinal Cannabis nor Aussie Medicinal Seed Co... as they appear to be one in the same person/company. "the Don" has a reputation (on Facebook) for inferior products and not delivering what he promises (taking money and not sending products), he is in the medical canna business for money, zero compassion in his business plan. If by chance these two 'companies' are not both being run by "the Don", then Aussie Medicinal Seed Co is steeling photos, and …

Have I been scammed?
Many months ago I found a company in Australia who was doing medicinal marijuana. At first, I ordered the oil and while it tasted like weed, it absolutely didn't have any effect. Then I ordered the dried herb. It came in a light green color and was very dry and crumbly. When i smoke it, it makes me dazed but theres something missing and not much of a high at all. It reminds me a lot of this stuff you used to be able to buy in Aus called Puff. It has the same effect. Yet the company seemed legit, had doctors i skyped with, a legit chemist etc. What am I smoking?

Any Harlequin growers?
Hi all. My first post in here (medical forum) asking about medical mj. I purchased some harlequin seeds and they are about 13 weeks from germination and nearly 6 weeks since flipping. I want to make a cbd oil from them. I would like the best time to harvest to get the most amount of CBD. What I have read they need to be harvested earlier to get the best amount of CBD??. Attached some pictures from early this morning. The trichomes: some still a little sparkly but most are cloudy white. Any help appreciated. Plant one Plant two, PS: Very sticky and the odour is mild but beautifully sweet :-)

Has anyone here been able to access medicinal cannabis legally in NSW?
It seems like there is a lot of red tape surrounding it, and that the NSW government has made something of a token gesture towards legalisation without giving anyone real access. I have friends with Fibro Myalgia who have been denied. I know someone else with Epilepsy who isn’t hopeful that he’ll be able to get it - despite only wanting CBD (the non psychoactive compound). Has anyone had any success? If so, was it because of the GP you worked with or the condition that you have (in your opinion)?

Palmitoylethanolamide (P.E.A)
Ok so it's not medical cannabis but I thought this would be the best place to post it. Anyone had experiences with this at all?

We won a battle!
My son has malignant nerve sheath tumors which there are many active with one going malignant. His condition is (was) described as terminal with metastasis to the pelvic area, neck and base of his skull, both legs and chest area He has had radio therapy and supplements including RSO and CBD over the last 4 months. The main tumor has been smashed with metastasis gone. All the other tumors have stopped progressing. (these weren't radioed) and during the whole episode he needed no anti nausea medication, only 3 pain killers after a big operation to remove another malignant tumor from the same area which took the femoral nerve with it. No nerve pain ...no inflammation or infe…

A question for Tassie legal medical users
I'm a medical user leaving in southern TAS. I have a condition that should qualify me to get a cannabis prescription according to all the available information. I was give a referral to a pain management specialist via the specialist who treats my condition. The plan being the PMS would be able to provide a cannabis script. FAIL. He told me flat out, he wouldn't give a cannabis related script to any adult who wasn't in palliative care. He acknowledged that he could, but simply won't. Then he sent me away with a script for a pharmaceutical. A pharmaceutical that I clearly explained to him I refuse to take. Something that I had strong side effects to and won't touc…

Canna & Dementia/Alzheimer's
My Father is now 82 years old and he has survived Heart Disease and Bowl Cancer, thanks to surgery. He suffers from Dementia now and his cognitive function is pretty fucked..He basically can't make a Cup of Coffee now. He still knows who everyone is by name but he's getting worse. The Doctor's have him on a fuck load of Poison's of course. I'm pretty sure the Drugs he's been on for the last 20 years to reduce his cholesterol is a contributing factor. Fix one thing and fuck another seems to be what they are good at. I've done a crap load of my own research and a blend of THC & CBD Oil seems to be the go. (THC) and other compounds found in marijuana can promote the …

Dry Cannabis Tablets - Discussion
Hi guys, new to the forum so g'day to all. I've been a smoker for chronic pain for about 7yrs. I smoke everyday. Recently, due to lung issues and the antisocial behaviour associated with having to go outside and smoke etc, I've decided to move to edibles. I've consumed many types many times, but recently I tried going to straight up decarb'd dry flower. Ground into a powder and forced into gel caps. Now, the first night I tried em, (2 caps at once) I got great results. A heavy body numb and nice head buzz. The next day, although, I did the same thing to what seemed to be half the effect of the previous day. The day after, I tried to take one earlier, and one later …

Medical Cannabis Treatment for ADHD ( Bipolar. GAD 0
Hello, My brief overview I have found your website during my research into alternative treatment medications for the treatment of Adult ADHD. I have a diagnosis of Adult ADHD , treatment resistant Biplor and Generalized disorder and current medication treatments have essentially resulted in what I would term treatment resistant to the most common medications such a Dexedrine and Ritalin & most Bipolar medication. The research to this point into the use of medical marijuana [ M.M ] for ADHD in Australia has me thus far of the impression that the use of M.M ] for ADHD is really not supported or covered under the governments publications that support ADHD as not ap…
