I'm with you Vape.

 

I don't fear cancer because I know I will be able to cure myself.

"Missed an opportunity" my ass. They're the government. They can write a bill and pass it in an hour if they wanted to. The bottom line is that they're corrupt and/or gutless.

 

The people who should be in power aren't, and the people who should never ever be in power, are. Opportunity has nothing to do with it.

[hashwizard]

'Corrupt & gutless'? That just about sums things up.

 

I'm with you Vape. After 5 years there's no difference in survival rates between cancer patients who received chemo & those who don't.

 

My best mate died of pancreatic cancer. He was given 3 months to live & sent home to die by his specialist. Pancreatic cancer has a 95% mortality rate. He found 2 young Drs who used him as a guinea pig. They injected chemo straight into his tumor. Although an experimental treatment [meaning one would think they'd err on the side of caution] they over estimated the quantity & burned a deep hole, several inches wide, into his back. [The chemo was injected through the front of his body] I sat with him for 4 hours while he dry-retched into a bowl. He spewed for a day & a half non-stop.  As he was dying, the hole in his back caused more pain than the tumor itself. Mick died 9 months after diagnosis. He gained an extra 6 months of misery, pain & suffering.

I thought part of the Hippocratic oath was to 'do no harm'?

I really don't understand why so many cannabis users and law reform advocates are so against evidence-based medicine.

I don't believe they are against evidence based medicines, more that they question the 'evidence' and are frustrated when 'professionals' disregard evidence that doesn't suit them eg. any evidence that is pro Cannabis.

"evidence based medicine"

 

I don't call it "evidence based medicine" when the consultant physician is saying...

 

Let's try this... I've got a couple of patients trying it and they seem to think it helps, or

 

I heard from another physician that you can mix these two drugs and get a better result... let's try that! or

 

Or the ever classic from a phsyician who charged me $350 for his expert opinion...

 

Maybe 'we' could try naltrexone?... It's being used for lots of things these days, it's not just a detox drug... yes I suppose it will knock out the analgesic effects of the tramadol, but you could take paracetamol instead?

Sorry??? Care to explain? What evidence based medicine?

Are you a troll for Big Medicine? A cop?  Shit-stirrer, stupid or just plain ignorant?

 

If Big Medicine wasn't Big Pharmas bitch & was capable of healing disease with medication that actually worked without it causing symptoms worse than the disease itself, then patients wouldn't seek alternative treatment.

 

I've been a recreational pot smoker for many years yet had no idea what a brilliant medicine it was. I wont bother listing the many conditions that mmj can treat or cure, suffice to say that the list is very long.

 

It's because of uniformed people like yourself, who are unable to think for themselves, that has helped create the very situation we're now in where we have the tail wagging the dog. BP determines what med students are taught about disease. And the ignorant [or those with a vested interest in mjs illegality] scoff at peoples experience that marijuana heals their ailments without negative side-effect.

 

Mmj has dealt with my severe nerve pain by at least 90% & the longer I medicate daily the better it gets. Mj cures nausea better than anything from BP. It treats depression with no negative side-effect. BP's drugs for depression only made me sick & disoriented.

I have a choice, either take ineffective drugs with side-effects worse than the 'ill' or take a natural herb that cures my ills and puts a smile on my face. It's not a hard decision for those of us with at least half a brain.

 

That's my evidence, what's yours? Mummy & daddy taught you to believe everything the establishment says? That the Govt. doesn't lie? That school/college/uni is without error?

When you get really crook & BM fails to cure you & BP's drugs are driving you to contemplate suicide [like many patients I've met] just how long will it take for you to reach for a joint? Or would you prefer to suffer in ignorance?

 

It's attitudes like yours that make me sick. I need a billy
