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.

  3. Mother with Terminal Cancer (Help Please)

    Hi guys, I am an Australian son to my mother whom has terminal bone cancer, or otherwise known as 2nd degree breast cancer. My mother has had it twice, first time breast cancer, and now bone.

  6. I have no idea what I'm doing!

    So. I've been a chronic pain sufferer for coming up on three years. I have Oxycodone and Tramadol prescriptions but honestly I don't like either of them enough to take them regularly. I've smoked joints that've been passed around and I've noticed a couple of times that it's had a reasonable effect. Sometimes. I'm assuming different strains are better for pain than others? Basically I know nothing. I don't know how to roll a joint, even. [which is definitely my preferred method of consumption.] SO. I have some questions. 1. Are there better strains for pain relief. And if so, which? 2. How do I find cannabis? I'm in Brisbane. I have no idea what to do. I'm not a so…

    Hi guys for those that don't already know, Greens Senator Richard De Natali will be introducing a medical cannabis bill to the parliment tomorrow. One thing he has made very clear to us is that many politicians are totally blind to the fact that cannabis has legitimate medical uses and for this bill to have any chance of passing people need to be contacting the,Senators, local members and other state and federal members of parliment letting them know cannabis DOES have legitimate medical uses and urging them to support this Bill. What can you do you ask.... One thing you can do is copy and email the letter below to all or any of the Senators from the link at the end…

  14. Results from using High CBD Strains

    Hi all, I kicked off growing medical Jane about 1.5 years age with a specific target to find relief for a 30 year pattern of Migraine knocking me over every 6 to 8 weeks.

In the process I started to understand how the high changes depending on when it's harvested and the length it's cured for, I was starting to understand how complex this plant was. However what I didn't find was the solution to resolving my migraine pain but I did discover just how effective it is at blocking nausea which gets to alarming levels …
