THere have been suggestions in the laboratory that some types of cannabis can kill some types of cancer cells. This usually takes place in a petri dish with cancer cells in them. There have been suggestions in animals that it may help as well.\n\nThere are many many discussions on this subject all over the Internet. If you search \"cannabis curing cancer\" hundreds of testimonials will appear saying that cannabis \"cured\" this and that type of cancer in the author, or someone that they know. All of which may or may not have happened. \n\nI tend to look at cannabis in cancer in that it can help the nausea and other side effects that chemotherapy may induce. It can increase appetite in patients who are losing weight. I look at using cannabis for cannabis for cancer in the light of \"can it hurt\"? The answer, for the most part, is no. It is something that a person should discuss with their physicians. Most oncologists are very familiar with cannabis use in this setting for it's effects on helping with chemo side effects as I mentioned above.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7464-markdown","title":"How can I get a doctor to let me use some type of marijuana?

Only 1 medical school in the country teaches a course on the endocannabinoid system and what cannabis can do and 13% of the others just mention it. Lack of knowledge by physicians is one of the main stumbling blocks in the wider use of cannabis to help treat medical conditions. \n\nFor the use that you are asking about, cannabis would be very helpful. As recent as last week the National Academy of Science published their review of cannabis and one of the conditions that they found cannabis in fact helped was chronic pain. They also found it helped in helping the nausea that can occur with chemotherapy. I would point any physician that is reluctant to suggest cannabis in this direction.\n\nVery soon HelloMD will be publishing a nationwide directory of physicians who are educated about cannabis and who you will able to connect with.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7459-markdown","title":"What is the best product for cancer patients?","slug":"what-is-the-best-product-for-cancer-patients","content":"\"My mom has Stage 4 Bile Duct Cancer which is very aggressive. Traditional medicine will not work for her. Her oncologist already determined that chemotherapy is harming her more than helping her. What do you recommend?\"\n_____________________\nI am sorry to heat about your mother. BIle duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma) is very insidious since it is slow growing and may not cause symptoms until it has spread or is inoperable. \nThere have been no data to date that show that any type of cannabis can cure cancer, from the bile ducts or any other location. There are of course reports from various people that have claimed to have been \"cured\" of cancer by using cannabis in very high CBD:THC ratios.\n\nFrom my perspective I look at this from any negative effects that can occur from using cannabis in this situation. Your mother might be experiencing pain from her cancer and cannabis has been shown to work very well in helping with this. BY using cannabis in a balanced 1;1 ratio or even a higher THC percentage may give her some pain relief without any ot the side effects of opioids such as constipation.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD\n_____________________\nHi there, \r\n\r\nI'm so sorry about your mother. I have recently learned about cannabis expert Mara Gordon who started Aunt Zelda's. I would absolutely recommend checking out her products.

Chemotherapy kills cancer cells as well as damaging healthy cells and may account for your fatigue and if so I would encourage a cellular detoxification that also supports your liver and you likely need supportive nutrients to help your normal cells recover. One of the potentially beneficial supportive nutrients might be d-ribose. \nA topical application of THC tends to discourage herpes and regular use should reduce the breakout frequency.\nSo I would likely put you on high CBD tincture for bedtime and a high THC topical salve for your lips.\nFor pain during the day you may want anywhere from 4:1, CBD: THC vape oil to 2:1 for relief of symptoms without excessive fatigue but keep in mind everyone is a bit individual.\nPlease be aware that Sativa does have the potential to increase your pain and anxiety.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7305-markdown","title":"I have brain cancer would cdb help with my headaches and nerve pains","slug":"i-have-brain-cancer-would-cdb-help-with-my-headaches-and-nerve-pains","content":"\n_____________________\nYes cannabis can help with brain cancer, headaches and nerve pains. The cannabinoids (CBD, THC, CBN, CBG and many others) work best when they are utilized in a whole plant preparation. Isolated cannabinoids are far less effective, as the cannabinoids work together in a synergystic fashion. I would try a sublingual tincture of whole plant cannabis extract with CBD, THC and the other components found in cannabis. You can vary the ratio and see what works best for you and your lifestyle. With more THC you may find more pain relief, but you may experience more psychoactive effects, changes in perception and short term memory. When utilizing the tincture, allow it to absorb in your mouth, so that it goes directly into your bloodstream. Try a small dose (5-10 milligrams of cannabinoids), and wait for half an hour to see if you experience relief. Increase the dose as needed. Vaporizing cannabis will provide more immediate relief and is often a bit easier to titrate the appropriate dose. You may also try topical cannabis rubs or a transdermal patch applied to the most painful area.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7265-markdown","title":"Which products would be good in relief of pain due to stage 4 rectal cancer","slug":"which-products-would-be-good-in-relief-of-pain-due-to-stage-4-rectal-cancer","content":"\"looking for pain relief due to stage 4 rectal cancer that has metastasized to spinal and pelvic bone.\"\n_____________________\nI would look into taking \"rick simpson oil/ hash oil / FECO\" as adjunctive treatment. \nI would contact  http://constancetherapeutics.com and discuss treatment options using the oil.\nI would also use rectal cannabis suppositories.

More of an anti-oxidant, anti-inflammation, general health product is what we want than something for nausea/anorexia/etc because she's otherwise healthy and aside from her massive sutures and \"haircut\", you'd never know she has cancer. There's CBD oil (Vet CBD, brand), RSO and hemp oil...but don't know the differences except the hemp's obtainable online which leads me to believe it's not strong enough. If anybody has information on the differences or, even better, experience (!), I'd appreciate it. \"\n_____________________\nHi - hopefully I can help clear up some differences in the products you mentioned.\n\nThere are two main varieties of CBD oil: those derived from industrial hemp, and oils derived from regular medical cannabis. (RSO is essentially a brand name for the latter.)\n\nThe CBD hemp oil that you see available online is derived from industrial hemp and does not contain any of the other active compounds usually associated with medical cannabis.  Your hunch that hemp oil my be less effective is probably correct - vast majority of evidence suggests 'whole plant' extracts are more effective due to the 'entourage effect' of many different medicinal compounds from the plant working together.\n\nCBD oil made from regular medical cannabis, on the other hand, typically does retain a broader spectrum of the beneficial molecules so you are getting the maximum benefit of the whole plant.  If you are able to acquire this type of oil, that is what I would recommend.  At Sessions we offer two CBD-rich tinctures that you can check out here - https://sessionscc.com/shop/cbd-one-tinctures/\n\nUnfortunately I can't speak specifically to the effectiveness/safety of using these products for pets, so be sure to discuss with your veterinarian first.\n\nBest wishes to you and your four-legged companion!\n\nbenson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7225-markdown","title":"Does cannabis eliminate breast cancer on the skin?","slug":"does-cannabis-eliminate-breast-cancer-on-the-skin","content":"\n_____________________\nPreparations of cannabis have shown promise in treating cancerous growths on the skin as well as internally.

The fact is in life we will watch everyone we know and love die or they will watch us die and that's why we must learn to live in the moment. \nI also encourage Reading the book or listening to the audiotape, Eckhart Tolle, 'The Power of Now' to get in present moment since present moment is the only time we experience joy.\nI do hope your mother came through the surgery without any problems and that she's in recovery.\nYou touch on a legal issue, we all want to save our loved ones but a cannabis recommendation is required for your mother to use cannabis or you could be prosecuted for practicing medicine without a license (unlikely this would ever happen). \nIf she is in agreement with using cannabis she could fill out the paperwork, have an online interview with us and be sure her caretaker is present so the caretaker gets a card to acquire her medicine and we can discuss with her and the caretaker what would benefit her the most based on her disease process.\nCannabis is a great medicine and likely would relieve a lot of the uncomfortable symptoms she may be experiencing.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_7209-markdown","title":"I have a cat with terminal oral tumor*****","slug":"i-have-a-cat-with-terminal-oral-tumor","content":"\"I'm trying to treat it with cbd vet drops but I was told that it needs to have thc also to help maybe cure anything. what are some brands I can look for in dispensary's? \"\n_____________________\nTHC and CBD work together synergistically to treat illness, this is called the ‘entourage’ effect.

Cannabis and the endocannabinoid system seem to have incredible potential to treat conditions that have been resistent to traditional treatments. Given the fact that cannabis has no toxic or overdose potential, it is one of the best medicines available. Which cannabinoids and terpenes are most beneficial? And in what ratios? And in what dose? And in what route of administration? These questions might be answered in the years to come. I think whole plant cannabis is far superior to any of the cannabinoids in isolation. Cannabis is an incredible teacher plant that will continue to show us how little we know about the processes of the body and how much more we have to learn. It would make sense to me that sunlight grown, organic (maybe bio-dynamic) cannabis that expresses a balanced ratio of cannabinoids, that is grown, harvested and processed with intention, love and care would provide the best medicine.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":96,"numPages":15,"currentPage":9,"id":5865,"name":"Tumor","slug":"tumor","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
