Chef Jim Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Well then. If it was recommended 100 years ago it has to be a viable medicine now. Hey let's bring heroin back seeing it was originally used as a medicine and it's derived from a simple plant.

DC Tom Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 In your opinion, jboyst, why was cannabis used for medicine for so many years prior to prohibition? The same reason leeches were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob in Mich Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 The following 6 links were taken from that Cannabis and Disease thread. If you have a more credible source for such research, please name it. We would all love to see it. They talk of possible cannabinoid links to Crohn's Disease, Alzheimer's, Psychiatric Disorders,and various forms of cancer. Consider too that it is apparently effective in treating nausea, epilepsy, chronic pain, migraines, Parkinson's, and MS among others (links not included) If these reports are true, wouldn't that be sort of a remarkable medicine? http://www.ncbi.nlm....les/PMC3339795/ http://www.ncbi.nlm....les/PMC3942876/ http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/24356243 http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/23648372 http://www.cancer.go...age4#Section_26 http://www.ncbi.nlm....les/PMC3481531/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireChan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Check out this link. It is from a Guide to Antique Medicine Containers.

L. Potter; Medical Cannabis was recommended toward the following ailments: Analgesics or Anodynes (pg. 15) Aphrodisiacs (pg. 24) Deliriants (pg. 28 ) Diuretics (pg. 30-31 ) Hypnotics (sleeping pills) (pg. 39-37 ) Narcotics (pg. 40-41 ) Pulmonary Sedatives (pg. 42 ) Vestical Sedatives (pg. 49 ) Albuminuria (pg. 574 ) Appetite (pg. 583 ) Asthma (pg. 587-588 ) Bladder, Irritable (pg. 591 ) Bladder, Paralysis of.

B-Man Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Symptomatic treatment is any medical therapy of a disease that only affects its symptoms, not its cause, i.e., its etiology. It is usually aimed at reducing the signs and symptoms for the comfort and well-being of the patient. When the etiology for the disease is known, then specific treatment may be instituted, but it is generally associated to symptomatic treatment, as well. Symptomatic treatment is not always recommended, and in fact it may be outright dangerous, because it may mask the presence of an underlying etiology which will then be forgotten or treated with great delay. Cannabis does not cure anything. If you were honest, you would admit what people want marijuana for. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, where does it show he has any business handling pediatric cancer? Where does it show he is on the board of any medical institution that would allow him the opportunity to do this? What the hell has that guy done to deserve anything?

It's late, maybe your reading comprehension is suffering. The article said he was the baby's physician, not his pediatric cancer specialist. I have more than one doctor too. I suspect Dr Courtney was the Doc that wrote the recommendation for cannabis for the baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Dr Courtney was the Doc that wrote the recommendation for cannabis for the baby. Per your post up there, it looks like he never did a residency in anything, is not board certified in anything, and certainly shouldn't be a baby's doctor. in what way is he qualified to be a pediatrician? he must be licensed to perform medical practices on a child. he isn't and his practice was not medical. it is bologna. We posted pretty much the same thing at the same time. I'm a shi**y dirt track driver that tend to walk on the track during races. Will medical MJ cure me? This is friggin hilarious.
