","slug":"looking-for-a-medical-marijuana-to-help-with-chronic-back-pain-for-my-72-year-old-father","content":"\"He has arthritis, a degenerstive building disc, and spinal stenosis. He’s not a candidate for Surgery due to age, Parkinson’s, and diabetes. Tried many other forms of pain management and nothing is working.\"\n_____________________\nIt's hard to see a family member suffer, especially if you feel you are out of options. Fortunately, cannabis is known to help with chronic pain and there are many different methods of consumption that you may try, and many that do not produce a psychoactive high. I am not a doctor, but I can tell you what other children of elderly parents have told me as well as what seniors have directly communicated about their experience.\n\nif your father is not a cannabis consumer I would start with non psychoactive products. I am not against THC, as it is a powerful pain reliever, but CBD may help on its own and it is non psychoactive. \n\nAn 81 year old that had intense chronic pain for years recently told me high CBD cookies stopped his pain in its tracks. @moonmans has a high CBD cookie you can purchase in California. Another form of cannabis to try is the transdermal patch. They can be a ratio of CBD to THC such as 1:1 and be quite effective as well. There are many products on the market for this as well. \n\npamelahadfield\n_____________________\nContinuing my answer... transdermal patches are time released. The other product you may wish to try would be a cannabis topical which provides localized relief. \n\nIf your father is willing to try THC/CBD for pain, vaping flower or oil cartridges can be highly effective for pain and provide immediate relief. I would start low and slow with anything that has THC. I find high CBD ratios such as ACDC or Canna Tsu can give me immediate relief. I hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield\n_____________________\nWe just published a roundup of the top Q&As on chronic pain--2 of which talk specifically to back pain. Answers were given by a brand expert as well as 2 doctors, including our very own chief medical officer. According to Dr. Frye, \"A variety with a 1:1 ratio of THC:CBD maximizes the analgesic, muscle-relaxing, and anti-inflammatory activity, reduces anxiety, and elevates the mood. Patients who use this ratio remain clear minded, focused, and productive without feeling high or stoned. Topical cannabis salves and lotions are also very effective in reducing or eliminating pain.\" Hope this helps!\n\nlyp\n_____________________\nCBD is the right word for your father's issue. Marijuana is basicaly a drug which make anyone high.\nCBD is one of the compounds derived from the hemp plants.\n\nHere is the link I am sharing in which you can find how CBD can be benificial in pain management:\nhttps://www.whatiscbd.com/cannabidiol-cbd-pain-relief/\n\nsebastianwross","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8601-markdown","title":"Can I use my medical card in Oregon as well?

","slug":"how-much-cbd-and-thc-is-good-to-help-heal-breast-cancer","content":"\n_____________________\nIf by \"heal\" you mean \"cure\" breast cancer, the answer in none. Cannabis has never been shown to cure cancer in humans. It has been shown to kill some type of cancer cells in a laboratory. There have been stories by many people saying that they have been \"cured\" of various types of cancers using some type of cannabis oil or product. What cannabis has been shown to do is help with nausea from chemotherapy treatements and well as increasing appetite. That being said, there is most likely no harm in using cannabis along with whatever treatment your physician recommends. I would suggest telling then that you are using it as well.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD\n_____________________\nAlthough there are no large, controlled, scientific studies to show that cannabis heals cancer (and I doubt there ever will be), many people claimed to been healed using cannabis.  Most likely, they also did other things like correct their diet, supplements, maybe ozone therapy, etc.  Research \"Rick Simptom Oil\", it's a potent cannabis oil, and doses that people state have healed their cancer is explained on various sites, such as this:  http://phoenixtears.ca/dosage-information/   The instructions can be confusing, such as comparing doses to the size of a grain of short rice, but this is what I would use if I had cancer.  My dog has cancer right now, so I've been researching all of this. \n\ncheryldell\n_____________________\nThe HelloMD answer, from Dr. Solomon, is meant to legally protect the website from Federal authorities.

You can read more about CBDA research and breast cancer here https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27530354\n\nThe most common ratios is 1:1 or 1:3 CBD to THC\n\nThe cannabinoids will directly and indirectly affect your endocannabinoid system. \n\nhttps://eternalplants.com.au/cannabinoids/beginners-guide-endocannabinoid-system/\n\nSo the doctors are technically correct when they say that THC or CBD won't \"cure\" cancer\n\nWhat may happen is the cannabinoids can support your body and get it back into balance.  \n\n\n\n\n\njakearnold","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8556-markdown","title":"It has been a month and I never received my medical marijuana card.","slug":"it-has-been-a-month-and-i-never-received-my-medical-marijuana-card","content":"\"How do I get my card?

While adult use is supposed to start January 2, there are many cities, towns and counties that have elected not to have adult use dispenaries in their jurisdiction. Some of them already have dispensaries that sell cannabis products to patients with medical cards and some will obtain a adult use license, which may or may not be in place by January 2. With those dispensaries that are medical use only, you will still need your recommendation to purchase products.\n\nWith a cannabis card issued by the state, you are entitled to a tax break as well, usally about 9% or so. You will need to use your recommendation and visit your local Department of Health to obtain this.\n\nIt is best to call the dispensary that you visit prior to traveling there. You can also use a delivery service to bring your purchase directly to your door.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8511-markdown","title":"How do I buy medical cannabis oil if I live in Texas?","slug":"how-do-i-buy-medical-cannabis-oil-if-i-live-in-texas","content":"\n_____________________\nUnfortunately, cannabis (and its associated products) is strictly prohibited in Texas. The only way for you to legally access cannabis oil, would be to travel to a legal state, such as California, obtain a medical marijuana recommendation while here, and then purchase it from a legal dispensary. Keep in mind, that you would not be able to bring the oil back with you to Texas, as transporting cannabis across state lines is against federal law.\n\nashleigh","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8494-markdown","title":"Where is my medical card","slug":"where-is-my-medical-card","content":"","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":108,"numPages":41,"currentPage":10,"id":5495,"name":"Medicinal Cannabis","slug":"medicinal-cannabis","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
