  • When Meghan needed to know why she couldn’t keep up with her active lifestyle, Loyola Medicine pulmonologist Daniel Dilling, MD, was able to diagnose and get her the treatment she needed for LAM, a rare lung disease. Access to an innovative clinical trial and expert care at Loyola’s LAM clinic meant that Meghan got the help she needed fast. “Knowing that I have that support community within Loyola is huge.” For more information or to make an appointment, please visit www.loyolamedicine.org/find-a... or call 888-584-7888.

    Does anybody know if any research has been done with CBD oils (Cannabidiol) or THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol)? As it is such a rare disease, I'm having trouble finding any studies online regarding LAM and CBD oil. I know that CBD has had amazing results with reversing and even curing other pulmonary diseases, cancers and even seizures, and I was hoping to read any and all data regarding this kind of treatment specifically for LAM. If anyone has any links or information please, I'd love to know. I would greatly appreciate any and all help with this. Thank you very much

      thank you! I'm from malaysia anyway. i used to met my specialist before, but i believed that there's nothing like those treatments here in my country. even if it was, that will cost a lot and not gonna be covered by medical insurances. anyway, this video is such an inspiring for me. i really hope i could live a better life in future.
