Marijuana and Parkinson’s Disease

[@elliottchurchill7314]

I have Parkinson’s and I have it for 8 years. I live in Canada where cannabis is legal so I tried cannabis. Now what I have learned is very important. I take my cannabis in low dose capsules 2.5mg of THC in each capsule. I have found that low doses of THC can stop Parkinson’s tremors with no “high” effects, so you can function normally in life. I have tried smoking marijuana as well, while it stops the tremors I did get the “high” effect.
From my experience, THC in low doses has has stopped my tremors. So I don’t have to wait for more research to say THC works. I will continue to use THC in my treatment of Parkinson’s and I encourage everyone who has this horrible disease to keep an open mind and give it a try. It will give you your life back.

Yes of course. I'll do same too if it helps my ailment.

I gave it to my dad for his bladder cancer when he turned down chemo and radiation Kaiser and, to the shock of his doctors, it worked. AND one of the "side effects" was the tremor he had for years disappeared within a week or so after he started using the cannabis and never returned. AND it lowered his A1-C and made him much happier.

The use of marijuana for Parkinson's disease is still controversial and not widely accepted as a standard treatment. Some doctors may hesitate to recommend marijuana due to the potential for side effects and the lack of well-controlled clinical trials. But I believe in cannabis's medical benefits and its endless potential for science and medicine.

"potential side effects that haven't been shown to exist, so we decided to have people that have Parkinson's disease to be guinea pigs for very expensive and experimental medicine instead"

[@shannonjust]

Do these experts ever ask themselves WHY "there just aren't enough studies yet"?

I start CBD got great benefits from it and now got my card and do both CBD and smoke THC and the two together help so much with my tremors and stiffnees and pain

That former DEA agent took RSO oil. That's what he took, it's nearly a thick black liquid sold at dispensaries in legal states due to the THC in Rick Simpson Oil.

[@marklampo8164]

Five thousand years of use means "we just don't know, " but let your doctor know so you can share your ignorance!
