PLEASE Consider Medical Cannabis

I am posting this message for one reason only.....to urge ALL sufferers of ANY inflammatory bowel or gut condition to PLEASE begin looking into medical cannabis asap, which in my own life has proven to be nothing short of extraordinary medicine...a miracle really...for alleviating my own IBD issues (when nothing else could and BELIEVE ME I had tried EVERYTHING just like a lot of you) and liberating me from all the associated stresses and discomforts not to mention any pharmaceutical meds I had been taking.

Do the research, your own due diligence, and if you have medical marijuana in your state get with a cannabis MD these are good people who only want to see people get healed. BECOME EDUCATED this has zero to do with getting high or anything that might cause people to turn away. People who are receiving medical cannabis are not there to get high and they aren't getting high (thanks to the CBD dominant formulations that the medical dispensaries offer). They have only come to get relief and get healed.

I no longer believe that autoimmune conditions are incurable and your doctor God bless him or her won't steer you in this direction because they simply don't know a whole lot about it nor what your body's endocannabinoid system is all about and how it works. Learn about the endocannabinoid system this is very important. Get with people who have used medical cannabis to get symptom relief and healing for themselves and their pets.

Thank you for your time.

Ok so here's the breakdown on that...the fact is that real world clinical evidence conducted more privately in the US and in other countries (see Israel) continues mounting strongly in favor of the efficacy of medical cannabis as a healing and symptom relief agent. Your doc's response is typical but accurate in the sense that the "good studies" she's referring to are those that are the standard studies usually conducted by the pharmaceutical companies and then stamped by the FDA that we've all become accustomed to. One of the reasons why you don't see them is because cannabis is still classified by the government as a federal schedule 1 narcotic (ridiculous) which is a complicating factor not to mention the pharm companies can't patent a plant so they don't have the incentive to pour money into researching/studying it. You can look all this up & see for yourself and while you're at it look up the works of the following: Rafael Mechoulam, Dedi Meiri, Ethan Russo, MD, Dustin Sulak, MD, Jeffrey Hergenrather, MD, Bob Melameade, Mara Gordon if you get a chance (they're all on YouTube).
