    Very Old Post

    Oh my goodness, I've not remembered him until this post.  This is old and some of the medications could have changed by now.  Haven't seen him post on here in a long time so I'm wishing him well if he is still around.  Don't want to post any negative about him because it used to be that site would take people down if they passed and I'm one for keeping people's history on this board.

    Joe has passed

    Joe was one of our former members. He passed a few years ago now, as have a several others in this thread. 

    And I think they stopped taking down our members profiles after Craig passed. So yeah, leave him alone. He lives through his words.

    Just Hope So

    It always bothered me that they took down posts of people passed.  They had so much information to share and hated it when they did this.  They took away our memories and stories of people we grew to know.  I've told my family never to share my passing on here as my "About Me" page has some things some one might want to read.  I'm hoping you are right about the deletions.  Miss Joe's smiling face.

    I agree with you PhillieG

    I found the marijuana edibles were a great alternative to prescribed meds, as the biggest side effects are that you get a great night sleep and a better appetite with a calm stomach.

    This may be a silly question,

    This may be a silly question, but do you order or make the edibles yourself? This was on the list to get when DH was diagnose, but I actually just bought a bag. I have searched how to put it in foods and oil/butter, but never have attempted yet. this is not something he would have done BC and really didn't when he was sick from chemo he just suffered most of the time. He did smoke it a couple of times when it just became too much. The meds the dr gave him did nothing to help with the Nauseated feelings. DH is getting ready to start the Xeolda and I am hoping to be prepped for this so he is able to feel better. Also I will be insisting the dr tries a new Med as well. Thank you for any help!

    It depends on the state you live in..

    In Medical Marijuana Legal states you can buy them at the dispensary.

    If you need to make your own it is not hard and plenty of tutorials on the web.

    I use 1 ounce of Marijuana to 1 pound of Coconut Oil and use it as butter for cookies, etc. (makes 75-150 cookies) I actually use a Magical Butter Machine to make it easier. ($175US) I used them during my radiation treatment and they were very effective. You will need to figure out the dosage that works for you. I take one at bedtime, helps me get a good nights sleep.

     I can probably answer any questions you have.
