kanny 19,382 Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 I use cannabis to treat the symptoms of renal colic caused by my condition cyistineuria . Anyone who's had a kidney stone will tell you its very painful . I've tried the artificial opiates from the doctors and there a nightmare with loads of side affects and limited effect. It's criminal that I'm criminalized for self medicating with somthing that's better and safer than what the doctors can offer me. kanny, you gotta do what you gotta do, you know your body better than the doctor does, my mate had a bad belt of shingles, he was in a lot of pain with it,(like you) he use to take weed for the pain, it really helped him and the only thing which helped him for his needs,I do don't worry lol cannabis works on many different levels for me its not just the pain ...I have to drink a obscene amount of water 6 to 8 litres a day is my target its hard but anyone who's had weed will tell you one side affect is dry mouth..perfect for me as it forces me to drink more then there's the recreational side if I have a pint of beer or a glass of whisky I have to drink 2 pints of water after each glass as alcohol dehydrates and that cancels out any effect of the alcohol. So where most people after a hard day will have a drink I have a toke and that's good for the soul everybody needs to relax don't they?...it really is the perfect drug for my condition natural and organic.... it's madness that its illegal for me to take it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hagan 3 Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 IMO folk should be able to use it. It's a lot less harmful than Alcohol. It's been proven to help medically on many fronts Conspiracy theory but why would Goverments throughout the world get together over a hundred years ago to ban the use of Cannabis ????? Maybe the family's who run all the big Pharmacuticle company's knew something ? Ie cannabis can help medically on many fronts Thus they wouldn't be able to make multi billions annually from rotting our insides by prescribing then selling us tablets ????? So they made cannabis out to be this worldly evil over 100 yrs ago???? Just a thought. But I agree this super strength skunk that's around now can be addictive if taken by those weak of mind to start with. Aha so someone else realises the truth, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dark-destroyer-85 636 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Fair play Howard didn't seem like a hardened criminal just some one who took an opportunity to take a quick buck watched the documentary on him seems a decent bloke who by all accounts made a lot of of money for his family whether through drugs or books or whatever else fair play to him Quote Link to post Share on other sites
