Canna & Dementia/Alzheimer's


buzzo

Question

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 cellular removal of amyloid beta, a toxic protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

I know worst case scenario is Canna will stem the tide. I'm going to push my mother into getting him onto the Medical Canna.

 

So I have 2 questions.

 

1. Will these Medical Dickheads allow the use of a combined THC/CBD Oil or is our retarded Country only going to prescribe CDB Oil?

 

2. Have any of you already tried Canna for this condition on the sly and willing to give me any feedback

Sorry to hear about your Mum Zen.

If nothing else Canna will definately remove the Agression

Thanks for the feedback everyone....Keep it coming

Thanks Buzzo, funny thing is, my mum wouldn't hurt a fly before this present shit hit the fan.

 

My sisters are onto the specialist to see what sort of reaction they can get to the article. Hopefully he doesn't have a stick up his arse.

Zen it can't hurt to try. There is research through Europe that canna does help. If nothing else it will help calm her down. Different States have different outlooks on cannabis. I know growing up in Tassie it was considered to be a bad drug yet up here in QLD oldies are into oil for arthritis and to help combat Alzheimer's.

Sorry to hear what your going through. If you need anything let is know.

Thank you for your concern AD.

 

Luckily Mum is in QLD, we are waiting on the specialist consultation. We are all hoping the specialist is open minded and willing to look at alternatives than just traditional meds. At this stage I can't see that it would do any more harm than the disease is doing to Mum.

Over the last 10 days or so (since the start of this thread) I decided to really push the CBD oil on my mum.

The f-ing government would not let her opioid script be filled, she was (pretty much) out of pain killers, so I gave her 30mg of CBD.

Holly shit

She is now taking 45gm CBD/day and is not taking any opioids- Well, she WAS taking, 1/2 tab a day, just to keep the withdrawals away, but no longer.

 

I am daym near speechless, it's like me and the hubby just look at each other and say WTF, is this really happening.

We were one step away from putting her on morphine, but now her pain level is so low (with just Lyrica and CBD) all she needs is a an extra 7.5mg of CBD and she's good.

 

Her brain is clear, no more laxatives and she is eating real food.

 

side note, we are using 30:1 tincture from Papa and Barkley - (they are 100% legal company in Cali) the tincture is tested so I know exactly how much CBD is in each dropper-full.

I'm waiting for a few ml of hemp-derived CBD to test it out, but it is exactly the same price as the 30:1 tincture I'm using now.

I'm also thinking about giving a bit more THC-A too, like a 15:1 mix.

 

But yeah, holly crap Pain Be Gone for sure

Fantastic news MT, I'm glad your mum has found relief without becoming an addict and has a far better quality of life.

Quick something nothing update on my Old Man.

My Mother says he has stabilized and the disease doesn't seem to have progressed any further.

Well that's what she says. I see him every week or so and from where I sit he is worse.

There is nothing left upstairs now. He is so drugged out from the Tackle Box of Poison's he takes every day that I'm surprised he's still alive.

It's a bit like interest rates..There is a bottom and the closer you get, the less noticable it is.

 

My Family think I'm totally Bat Shit Crazy and its because of Cannabis, so I don't bother with the Fucktard's anymore. They all have Skin Cancer and underlying health issues.

I'm literally the only one in the Family that has absolutely nothing wrong ..

And I'm the oldest Sibling and I'm also the only one that doesn't take any Poison every day.

 

Anyway my Mother complains that all he wants to do is sleep all the time. I pretty sure I might have done the wrong thing by suggesting he should be on a THC/CBD Oil.

She mentioned Cannabis as a potential treatment to their long standing GP. So I reckon they got ahead of the curve changed his Meds so he is easier to care for.

Next time I'm over there I'm going to try and find out the latest Poisons they have him on.

 

He has Dementia so there fix is to drug the poor *#%@ so much he spends most of the time asleep. Wot a total bunch of *#%@^.

 

The only way I'd have a chance to get him on Canna is if he was getting much worse and hard to handle. Maybe he is already there now.

The only way to find out it too get him to take nothing and see what he is like. As you can tell that's not going to happen and its something I suggested.

Well not all meds. He is on shit for BP & Cholesterol. I suggested to her, just take him off the Dementia Meds for a couple of weeks and see if there is any change.

 

I haven't given up and from what I have seen lately, he appears to be just slowly dissapearing quietly into the night.
