RE: [TMIC] Medical Marijuana
I did smoke it and know of others that stated that was the only way to get the pain relief, no clue why. I sure do wish the pharmaceutical companies would research what chemicals in the plant help us and the best way to deliver those chemicals. It is not the THC that relieves pain, it just helps you not to care you are in pain. It may help in combination with another chemical but I don’t know anyone that took marinol that had the pain relief that those of us that smoked had. It took the neurological pain away, all of it and it was wonderful. Marinol is really great for those on chemo that need to eat, if they can keep down a pill. It works really well increasing ones appetite.

RE: [TMIC] Medical Marijuana
I have used it for many, many years. Dr. Kerr knew and agreed, along with every other neuro I have ever seen. It works so much better than marinal and you do not need to smoke or eat enough to get high to feel the pain relief. I myself don't mind the feeling if I over indulge, some do.

Hello Janice, Medical marijuana is just that---marijuana that one smokes. Marinol on the other hand, is pill form, and Sativex is a mouth spray.

Re: [TMIC] Medical Marijuana
Seems that those who smoke it get a lot of pain relief. Do you get pain relief with the sleepy effects?

That is basically synthetic THC and I was prescribed it in ’99 and it didn’t really take the pain away. It did make me sleep and hungry. I smoked it instead and that took the pain away, helped the spasticity in my muscles, and left me feeling pretty good. I did not need to smoke a lot to get relief.

Question…..have any of you tried it and if so has it provided you with relief? I know how I would answer but perhaps other members will shed a different light on the subject….as for me I am delighted! Now I just have to get my Dr. to prescribe it! Rob in New Jersey
Re: [TMIC] Medical marijuana
Can't stand the soreness in my throat. I hate handling cigarettes. Brownies are easy, just add a tsp. of cannabis- start with a tsp then slowly increase. Orally does not work as fast as inhaling, expect an hours wait! Good Luck, F
Re: [TMIC] medical marijuana
I know a few of you have mentioned treating your pain with marijuana (or derivitives thereof) and I can't help but wonder if it's really benefic ial in the long run, considering the negative effect that it has on the immune system? Have I been misled? Sally, I believe you have been misled. Cannabinoids have no effect on the immune system, to my knowledge. the U.S. government spreads a lot of Misstatements about cannabinoids- it's part of the war on drugs. F
