Re: Medical Marajuna Girls

I started 4 months ago taking cannabis oil . I tried smoking first only 2 puffs and I just couldn't get the hang of it. Maybe smoking a Tabaco thingy is too challenging for a non smoker like me.

Anyway I made my 1st cannabis paste using a method I learned from newcure.org mixing ground cannabis buds with coconut oil and let it sit in the slow cooker for 10 hours at 170 Fahrenheit. I was not sure if they are strong enough because of the insignificant amount of buds I put in it. I bought indica strain only and a single serving in the size of my pinkie nail would send me to bed for a good night sleep. It happened several times I couldn't keep my eyes open at lunch or my doctors appointment because I overdosed accidentally.

There have been arguments about the potency of cannabis paste using this method. So I decided to try a stronger version. In California Los Angeles one pound of buds costs 2500 or more and that is a wholesale price you find online I think lots of them are private growers. If done correctly I heard you can get about 60 grams of potent oil which will last you for 60 days based on recommended dosage.

I didn't make my own oil or grow my own plants due to safety concerns. I looked online and did my homework and decided to order my medicine from a northern ca dispensary. Their price is 1/2 of market price which is $60/gram. The price is affordable but they use other parts of the plants too which is disclosed on their website. They serve California patients who have a license for medical marajuna use. To be accepted you will need a phone interview and have to fill out some paperwork. Http://www.wamm.org

I'm also doing conventional chemo at this point. The oil does help a lot with the pain and insomnia. My last scan was in May when I barely started the oil so we will see what's going to happen.
