    Interesting thread

    We got the script for MJ, they wanted to give us a bong, we took sweets instead, watching a 10yr old get high was fun but then paranoia kicked in and it sure wasn't fun anymore.

    We ended up in ER, Doc; is he on any medication?  Me; Yes marijuana.  Cool  went home and slept it off...

    Actually we gave it for cancer fighting not pain or nausea, the dispencary lady also is very pro 'anti cancer' with MJ.

    Soon we get some CBD, anti cancer and no 'high'. stage 4s should check this out.

    CBD = Canabidiol.

    Did you see the thread on oil

    that was posted recently?  The Rick Simpson stuff.  Have you been able to access that for your son?

    No I missed

    that thread, actually not reading too much on forums right now we did use RS oil, they make it here, would be reluctant to give THC again although CBD should cure the paranoia.

    Next time I will experiment on me first Innocent

    Well, I do go by AA here,

    so an AA meeting kind of makes sense, I guess!

    But seriously, I'm sorry to hear that you have so much pain.  Imo, you are absolutely right not to worry about addiction issues.  We've got to do whatever it takes to stay strong while we are dealing with cancer, and pain saps that strength.  Keep taking those pills as long as you need them!

    PS Just fyi, 10 mg of oxy isn't really that much.  I've known cancer patients who were on way higher dosages.  Which is good, as it means if you need more as time goes on, you can have it.

    Hugs coming your way~AA 

    I'm in total agreement

    Right now, we are all tasked with doing whatever it takes to get us through this cancer roller coaster.  Dealing with pain is high on the list; pain meds when needed should not be avoided because of fear of addiction.  As AA so rightly states, pain saps strength - we need all we can muster for this journey.  If and when the time comes, we can deal with addiction issues then.

    Thanks for the reminder about supplements, Tans...

    I do take 5000 iu of Vit D, but haven't tried adding in the stuff that is specifically supposed to work on joint pain.  Need to do so, as I'm assuming that once I get off these pain meds, I'm still going to have the original pain for which I took them in the first place.

     

    getting off

    My wife uses supplements to get off pain meds e.g. IV vitamin C for IV morphine after 1st surgery, the above for NSAIDs.
