Marijuana cannabis: any beneficial results?

[Mikek]

I would not use it. Just talk to your naturopath about it.

it looks as though st being used to cure cancer! It might be nonsense but it might not. I plan to have a closer look at this.

It's a criminal offence in Tasmania. I just checked.

Maybe your mind has just been made up for you, about the move

Maybe if I get high enough we could fly there together.

In the places where it is used by prescription for medicinal purposes, what are the most common reasons?

I have heard it being used for pain in terminal cancer patients and treating severe anxiety disorders? What else?

Does the synthetic stuff works as well for medicinal purposes?

More power to you, Mike! I can't legally grow it here either, even though the state says it's legal to possess small amounts for personal use. If I had a medical card, I could. With all that land, you could easily hide it, though I know you are a law abiding citizen and would hesitate. You did say a plant volunteered on your property! You can't help that! Perhaps you should look into getting Jen a medical card. Check with your current docs or shop around for one who is a little more savvy in that area. There must be lots of people in Australia doing it. Keep up with the research!

- pain relief, glaucoma
I have heard it being used for pain in terminal cancer patients and treating severe anxiety disorders? What else?
- arthritic pain, eating disorders
Does the synthetic stuff works as well for medicinal purposes?

- not enough studies yet, but supposedly THC works in natural and synthetic form

There's no provision here for medical cards in Tasmania .Cannabis is illegal. Period!

Hello all, well I know im young but heres my input: i wa smoking weed heavily when i got weggies, had my medical marijuana card and had been smoking for years. It took many months to go into remission and wheni first started getting bad i quit the weed because i thought it had sonething to do with it. After learning they dont know the cause of it i choose to believe that it weed is ok. I have been drug free for over a year now with only a ritux 6 months and now have been smoking agian for 9 or so months. I can say probably the most thing in helped with was forgetting all the pain i encountered the past months and returned my mind to that of a blissful teen, it really helped me return to my normal lifestyle and so far i cannt say i have had any ill effects.
