Medical Cannabis
Tony, I'm migraine-prone and I've suffered a couple of whoppers thus far, so I literally feel your pain. I just wanted to ask everyone what you think about using medical m as an analgesic in these situations, given that one recent troubling French study about daily use and the acceleration of fibrosis? The study didn't specify the delivery system, so they may have been documenting the effect of daily intake of carcinogens via smoking.
While you're busy fantasizing giant Teutonic air ballons, also try to imagine a small sucking orifice and surgical tubing......
related to this topic: I have heard so many talk about losing weight while on Tx. I assume it is from general feelings of nausea? My problem is more of some weight gain since I don't have the energy to work calories off as before. How many are there of us in each category?
I've also heard that valerian is not to be taken as it can actually be liver toxic. I figure it's just best to stay away. I haven't had enough sx to consider medical cannabis but I think the vaporization or brownies may be the way to go.
P.S. when I have problems sleeping, which just started on tx by the way, I take a half a benadryl. Puts me right out without any sluggishness the next morning. I asked my doc is this was ok and she said sure.
Peace

HAHAHAHAHAHA THE VOLCANO ??? HAHAHAHAHA OMG....Just how much "stuff" would you need to load up a VOLCANO??? And are you saying that one would put this VOLCANO in their living room?? Reminds me of my youth when we would close up all the windows and use a pump on a Bong to fill the room with smoke and just Veg out.
I chose not to add any more chemicals to my chemical "stew" while on tx.....but I might consider it now that I am CURED. I must see this VOLCANO. Are there any "hippie chicks" connected with it?? I suppose we just need to bring our own music. I may need to grow my hair again too.
This may require research.

ROFL,,,,Califia,,We need a step by step video of this whole process in your living room! And then a connection would be nice hahaha
I started my web research at http://www.canorml.org/healthfacts/vaporizers.html . Here's a snippet:
"Vaporization is a technique for avoiding irritating respiratory toxins in marijuana smoke by heating cannabis to a temperature where the psychoactive ingredients evaporate without causing combustion.
Laboratory studies by California NORML and MAPS have found that vaporizers can efficiently deliver cannabinoids while eliminating or drastically reducing other smoke toxins.
Like tobacco, marijuana smoke contains toxins that are known to be hazardous to the respiratory system. Among them are the highly carcinogenic polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, a prime suspect in cigarette-related cancers. These toxins are essentially a byproduct of combustion, separate from the pharmaceutically active components of marijuana, known as cannabinoids, which include THC. Although there is no proof that marijuana smoking causes cancer, chronic pot smokers have been shown to suffer an elevated risk of bronchitis and respiratory infections. Respiratory disease due to smoking may therefore rightly be regarded as the primary physiological hazard of marijuana.
Cannabis vaporizers are designed to let users inhale active cannabinoids while avoiding harmful smoke toxins. They do so by heating cannabis to a temperature of 180 - 200
