Re: Still kicking
Thanks Brenda, I don't think she is asking as a cure, she is terminal, and I am not even sure if she wants it for herself. I think she is just interested as to why the doctors in Australia seem so anti it and wants to know of any that are pro it or even prescribe it. Thanks for your information.

Re: Still kicking
Hi Judy, I have a friend with Crohnes who makes her own. It's not difficult I am told. She uses a thing called a magical butter machine to extract the oil. There is a process to it and I think she learned a lot from overseas face book groups who specialize in the same. I wouldn't know where to start looking for the raw material for it but apparently it isn't that hard to find or that expensive to get but it surely will be once it gets all legal and regulated for the big companies to make their profits. I am sorry you have a friend with such a nasty disease but be aware cannabis oil does not cure all cancers but it can be a big help to some along with oncology treatments.

Re: Still kicking
Hi Brenda, good to hear from you and I'm glad you are doing ok. I have a friend with stage IV uterine cancer who is looking into cannabis oil. Can I ask how you got it? She is asking everyone she knows to ask their GP what they think of it and you are the first person I have heard of in Australia who uses it. Did you have to hunt around to find someone to help you?

Still kicking
Hi all, It's been a while. I am all finished with cancer treatment and had my first anniversary with the all clear so far. I am on Tamoxifen indefinitely and I think I have every side effect known to man but I am still hanging in there. Had some massive depression a while ago but the meds the psychiatrist gave me also had bad side effects so I am on my own now. I take a low dose cannabis/coconut oil daily and that seems enough to keep my cool. Just dropped in to encourage every one to hang in there and things do get better.
