Growing Cannabis
What’s the fee to get the Clerance ?
I use cannabis to treat my glaucoma, specifically Rick Simpson Oil or Cannabis Oil. Because I was a CDL commercial driver I had to get off the road while using. After 4 months at home I began my detox to get back to work. As a woman, it takes 3 months to get cannabis out of your system. Men only take 1 month. So now I'm home for 7 months. During my detox I needed to get my drivers license renewed. So I went in to the DMV. Of course, license renewal requires a vision test. Because of an astigmatism I have always had a corrective lense restriction on my license. With an astigmatism there is no surgery and contacts don't work either. Eyeglasses are the only option. While at the DMV I had to get a vision test and I passed without the requirement of a corrective lenses restriction and was allowed to take my DL pic without my glasses for the first time since I was 16 years old.
So, what are my choices? Take cannabis oil or go blind. What choice would you make?
In interviews, like this video, they have a tendency to talk about smoking joints which does only stay in your system for 4 hours. They never mention cannabis oil which builds up in your system and is a powerful medication that affectively treats or cures 300 of the most serious diseases known to man. I take my cannabis oil 2 hours before bed and it helps me sleep. The oil stays in my system and working 24/7 with only a single dose. I'm able to function normally without being stoned during waking hours. Most of all, nothing frightens me more than being blind and helpless, I'm not afraid anymore.
But, even more importantly, when I detoxed it wasn't just my vision that improved … I had a lump in my right breast and my lymph nodes under my left arm felt like a bag of bubble gum, I have COPD, diabetes and was overweight. The lump in my breast disappeared and my arm returned to normal. My COPD cleared up and I could breath easier. I lost over 60 lbs. My skin cleared up. My sex drive returned. My hair thickened. Things that I didn't even expect to be effected improved.
Pharmaceutical companies fund disinformation and even medical school course studies and doctors will tell you it doesn't work, that is why you will never learn about Rick Simpson Oil unless you stumble upon it for yourself. You can learn to make it for yourself on YouTube search How to Make RSO.

my urologist is getting me on medical marijuana because my tramadol is making me sick now.. I hope it works. I hate tramadol now. stops the pain but the side effects suck
Pot heads have been trying to find a way to legalize weed for years. They've finally done it. Now we don't have to just worry about DWI …now we will be treated to people swerving down the road while high. I wonder how many will be in accidents because of these knit wits?
Great explanations and show.i have been using the oil for my brain tumor with great success due to chemo and radiation not working for me on 2 occasions and having 2 oops so when it came back for the 3rd time I refused their standard treatments and treated myself with the oil.i am now 55 yrs young.i used to smoke pot from about 18 to 25 just mainly at party's etc but mainly it was tobacco just with a sprinkle of pot so never really a big user then just stopped on my own .never found it hard to quit or no side effects just went cold turkey . I have also been on the oil for my TUMOR up to about 1st first Feb 2020 and would also have the odd joint 5 x per week .I then decided to quit as I wanted to drive again and wanted to make sure my system was clear before driving and self tested myself first.i was only told not to drive for 6 months after each 0pperation ie first and second when I was told for the 3rd time that tumor had returned was then I tried the oil with success and have been on it for about 9ths and I chose not to drive.if ever the TUMOR comes back I will do the same thing. When u have cancer u will try anything to help you legal or not.I have never had a problem quoting cannabis by myself and don't BELIEVE it is highly addictive.i have more problems today trying to stay of the alcohol my choice which is what I have cravings for not dope. I have a few friends that smoke dope everyday .dope does not make anyone agro like alcohol or other drugs .I have had severe side effects every single day for 3n half yrs since my first tumor operation that is also why I refused my 3rd opp.since being of the CANNABIS oil I can now feel my arthritis a lot more in my shoulders neck and arms so I guess the oil has been masking the pain. The chemo treatments did not work for me and are toxins going into my body .please continue with your show to truthfully educate PEOPLE on this great HERB CANNABIS which has been used by the Chinese and American Indians for many of yrs
Pharmaceuticals are dangerous. Marijuana isn't, Marijuana is natural while Pharmaceuticals is man made poisonous trash. Some Pharmaceuticals are extremely addictive and can cause long term withdrawals that are life threatening.

This argument is so simple. If you smoke it because it’s “fun” or “boredom” then it’s recreational. If you’re smoking it for ANY reasons other than “fun” then it’s medical.
Shouldn’t be this complicated, benedryl puts me to sleep but I’m still allowed to buy those OTC, kratom is legal and OTC but people still OD on that… somehow. Medical Cannabis is far less dangerous than chugging cough medicine or eating grams and grams of kratom. Marijuana should be legal, and hemp products should be available to anyone. Only reason it’s so complicated is because y’all are just trying to rake in money and profits from this medication. I don’t use the word “drug” unless it pertains to a “bathroom drug” like heroin or coke, aka the hardcore stuff you do in the bathroom.
Really? So they are going to make people (who are already in pain, etc) go through like 50 hoops and then CHARGE them to get a card saying they are eligible AND then pay for medical cannabis? Omg….. jeez…. (however, at least it's legal that way…. pray for Wisconsin y'all)
for some it works, others not so well.
My dad uses it to treat his sciatica.
I'm mixed about this.
Whats the difference between medical and recreational?? They’re both cannabis that get you high. Or does he mean medical as in cbd specifically??

My 16 year old suffers from chronic joint pain and he is taking Gabapentin. His medicine is making him lethargic and his memory is being affected as well. I am doing research into an alternative and I am definitely looking into Medicinally Marijuana.

Government been testing cannabis scientifically for many many years. Or just look at Jerusalem University they lead the way with studying cannabis
Here comes my first comment….. we have the Entourage effect to support the endogenous cannabinoid system in our body. Recreational use of cannabis is still considered medical because you get in the medical benefit of smoking cannabis quick relief of stress nausea PTSD, inflammation and much more just because you get some enjoyment out of smoking cannabis does not make it recreational that makes you a happy person. #CBology ECS TARGET THERAPY a cannabis Wellness Plan
If medical marijuana is legalized in over half the states it’s clearly not been a legal now or for recreational use because it’s a good painkiller and will put addictive drugs out of business. People who think that are morons. if medical marijuana is legal laws in over half the states it’s clearly not been a legal now or for recreational use because it’s a good painkiller and will put addictive drugs out of business. People who think that are morons. We still have an opioid epidemic despite states having legalized medical marijuana
Strange that the CIA hold all the patents for medical cannabis/marijuana….why??
It won’t take the pain away. However CBD oil with the aid of THC reduced the amount of pain medicine. I’m sure there are studies will prove the use with using CBD’s in its purest form will decrease the amount of pain medications.
The studies have been out since the early 1970’s. Those studies were stopped because they found that is did in fact have positive results. This study was promoted by Richard Nixon. If you haven’t looked at that you might want to. As well as it was prescribed in pill form as late at the 1830’s. I’m sure you have seen the data.
On a personal note, I am looking forward to the outcome of said studies.
