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.

  4. Marijuana for post-chemo anxiety

    Hey everyone, I'm new to this site but i thought id post some experience with my recreational/medicinal use of marijuana. I'm 23 and had a lymphoma about 3 years ago which involved intensive chemotherapy for a year. I came out of it at the end of that year so mentally f--ked up that i was having panic attacks every second day and ending up right back at emergency.

  10. a weird high, or just reached a new limit?

    the other day after having finished a session i went and sat in the lounge chair and started watching tv, i started feeling a rush, a sort of tingling, from my chest that emulated to all over my body, it wasnt completly a tingly feeling, it was deffinetly more of a rush. i was wondering, when this happens, what does it usualy mean. was it because it was high potent bud (more than what im used to) and i had reached a level of smoking, or was it something else i should really look into ps. it mainly focuesed to around my lungs and heart area of my chest.

  11. Need to find a good strain for my Anxiety disorders

    Hi All, OK first up a quick run down of where I am at; I've tried a fair share of Indica strains, and rarely Sativa strains. Fortunately I was lucky enough to get 2 overweight (35g) ounces of the weed once that was by far more fun any shitty Indica high. Now I decided to smoke those 2 ounces medically, a joint a night and maybe more on the weekends. So I would be right for work the next day. Basically the following 3 months were the best 3 months of my life. Anxiety disorders disappeared instantly. Confidence skyrocketed. Got a MASSIVE promotion. Social life exploded. My life improved dramatically. It was fucking incredible. Now back to where I am atm, I am …

  13. Cannabis Kills Human Glioma Cells

    Cannabinoid action induces autophagy-mediated cell death through stimulation of ER stress in human glioma cells Published April 1, 2009 Received for publication November 3, 2008, and accepted in revised form February 11, 2009. http://www.jci.org/articles/view/37948 Autophagy can promote cell survival or cell death, but the molecular basis underlying its dual role in cancer remains obscure.

  14. Opinion - Medical Marijuana Benefits

    Cannazine Mitch Earleywine, Ph.D. is an associate professor of psychology at SUNY Albany who believes marijuana should be legalized for medical purposes stating that therapeutic use of marijuana has a history spanning over 4,500 years. The most humane and just approach to helping the sick requires that we continue the availability of medical marijuana. Evidence supporting medical marijuana - for appetite loss, glaucoma, nausea, vomiting, spasticity, pain, and weight loss is quite impressive. Evidence for its use for arthritis, dystonia, insomnia, seizures, and Tourette’s syndrome is also very promising. Opponents of medical marijuana mention that other drugs are ava…

  15. Bend over, it's time to get high. The low down on suppositories

    A most outrageous profession. While at the Expo, Dan comes up with the most hilarious product idea I’ve ever heard. “My company is Cannabanus,” he says in his best Dutch accent, “and my product is the new cannabis suppositories. You put the cannabis into the plug, the plug goes into your butt. Then you are getting high very quickly and efficiently. There are many blood vessels in the anus and they are absorbing the THC at an extremely fast rate. It’s called the Assinator.” I stumbled on this method for making them. How to make Suppositories To make marijuana caps, buy capsules at a homeopathic pharmacy or through the internet. The vendor will also have a sma…
