Can my father smoke marijuana for pain?

Q: My question is regarding the dreaded marijuana cigarette. My dad is currently taking lortabs for the pain in his head. (He’s got a brain tumor, unfortunately.) He describes this pain as pressure, most notably behind his eyes. This sounds very much like the pain associated with glaucoma, which marijuana is known to ease. The lortab also has the effect of an appetite suppressant, which is none to good because he needs his strength for the road ahead. It is for these reasons that the use of marijuana sounds good, a nice alternative. Which brings me to my question, does anyone know of any link between raised insulin levels and the rate of tumor growth? Anyone know of any complications the use of marijuana could cause someone who is to undergo radiation treatment? A drug like dylantin and marijuana? High blood pressure and marijuana? Any help or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Apostle.

A: Many cancer patients use marijuana. It won’t interfere with any medications or treatments. It won’t hurt high blood pressure. It does help with pain. But.. it is illegal in most places. And if that causes stress it isn’t worth it. Most cops don’t have the heart to take pot away from a cancer patient, but some will. It can also cause panic attacks in some people.. but generally if you know it can happen.. it doesn’t. If he is willing to try it and you have a source for it that won’t land your butt in jail then it won’t harm him. Cancer treatment is probably the most appropriate use of marijuana that I can think of. It certainly has helped people I know in cancer treatment. I begged my own father to ease some of his pain but he was too afraid of the police to give it a whirl.

is Marijuana bad for you?

Q: •Gateway to other drugs? Yes this is true, those who have tried and liked weed have a greater chance of trying other harmful drugs.•Bad for your heath? No, Marijuana is not bad for you, however it is not good for you ether. Anything sucked into your lungs that’s not oxygen or air can harm your lungs. However your lungs have built in filters, they clean themselves slowly. If you accidentally breathe in some dust from a sand storm do you think that it stays in your lungs for the rest of your life? •Marijuana has thousands of chemicals? Yes, now this seems scary, but did you know that the coffee you drink every morning has almost the same amount!?!•Alcohol and cigarettes are worse? YES, yes, yes, yes, there have been no recorded deaths from marijuana. Unlike alcohol and cigarettes which kill millions of people each and every year. •Can screw up your life? Well… yes this is somewhat true… but it is not the marijuana that screws up your life, it’s (sounding like a hippy) the damn government. Since marijuana (a harmless depressant) is illegal, if you’re caught you will be thrown in jail, once you’re thrown in jail it’s hard to obtain a job, no job, no money no money can’t support a family, life ruined. If marijuana was legal you would have been just fine? Right?•Legalization of marijuana? Good idea right? If its legal then no one will be thrown in jail and have there life messed up. Yes this is true no one will be thrown in jail but remember that marijuana in a gateway to other addicting – make you a vegetable harmful – drugs. So with marijuana illegal many people are not even trying it so then supposedly there not trying other dangerous drugs. Overall less vegetable people •Addicting? For some yes and some no, but it’s all about how often and how much. Hell you can get addicted to just about anything including water!!! So then the question is how easy is it to get addicted to marijuana? Well compared to cigarettes it’s not that easy; marijuana is usually a mental addiction v.s. a physical addiction. Mental addiction is like potato chips, you have one you want another, it tasted good, but you’ll be just fine without another one. Physical addiction is like the addiction you get from the magic cancer sticks (cigarettes) where when you try to stop, you feel sick, your muscles ache, your depressed, have head aches, everything around you pisses you off, you don’t care about anything, your tired, stubborn, and the list goes on. Then once you take that one hit of nicotine (active ingredient in cigarettes) it all goes away, you feel great. However remember that the more you smoke marijuana the better looking that potato chip will become more and more until it really feels like a physical addiction, when all you can think about is the next joint. But this would only happen after years of smoking constantly.•Moderation? With the knowledge of the real dangers of other drugs, marijuana can be well enjoyed in moderation, just like alcohol. Not so much cigarettes. There is no such thing as moderation for cigarettes.•Increases the risk of heart attack? Yes it may, may being the key word there, however many things cause hard attack such as coffee, a well known and enjoyed beverage though out the world. Heart attacks (at lest this is what a doctor told me) are cause by your blood cells becoming too hard, eventually they become so hard that your heart can no longer pump them… thus a heart attack.•Bad marijuana? YES! If you buy marijuana, be sure you know where it’s been and how it was grown. You will have no idea that you’re breathing in some dangerous stuff. •Destroys social life? This is back to moderation. In scientific studies the people that are tested are highly abusive smokers, every day every minuet, as much as they can get. If these people were using alcohol instead of marijuana, they wouldn’t be able to move, drive, walk, talk, ANYTHING. So this is all about moderation. •Bottom line? Research before hand, even on the simplest things. And if you want to smoke marijuana ether wait till its legal or smoke where you are 120% sure you won’t be caught. And remember moderation!this is my researchtell me what you think is wrong…
