......all there was, because of modern day medicine practices, was the faint hope of an alternative miracle.

Today.......that faint hope, the months of riding a roller coaster full of emotions and doubt, and GW's never quit attitude appear to be paying off. :thumbsup:

"3 hrs · Seattle, WA ·
Apparently I may now be cancer free. Thank you THC/CBD oil!!
I had one bile duct (of the two you were born with). One was so obliterated the surgeon couldn't even find it 6 months ago. And he put a stent in the other one that was plugged up. Now they're both working just fine!"

Sieg, I hate that picture.

I think I was there two weeks after you guys and can remeber that exact seen and the words being spoken. It's a powerful picture and very emotional. The lighting, contrast and color are all excellent....from an artistic view, you'd probably get a blue ribbon. :D
I know you've got a great picture somewhere, find it and post it up.

I was talked in to finding a new doctor in Sun Valley recently. Because he is one of those "concierge" plan doctors..... where you pay them a flat fee for the year. So we set up a meeting to see if we liked each other. Once that was done and we agreed that he'd be my new doc ---- he ordered up all my medical stuff for a complete review.

Then they called and set up a half hour "review".

First thing he says is --- Who told you that you have cancer? Why did they tell you that? And blah blah blah...... WHY WAS HE ASKING THIS?? Because he can't "see" anything in my records to CONFIRM cancer. Okay. Not sure if that's good or bad? But it is what it is.

He wants CONFIRMATION of actual cancer -- or NOT! Says it's hard to treat going forward if we don't really know what we're dealing with...... so off to a Bile Duct Cancer specialist (thankfully Gwen has a friend on the board and gets me in right away) in Seattle at the UW Medical center. So we spent the day doing the MRI thing ---- then the appointment with the big docs after they do a thorough review.

So ----- basically they can't find proof of cancer cells. The tumor on my liver (thought to be a Klatskine tumor) has SHRUNK..... my lymph nodes that were "enlarged and squishy" are back to normal..... and the biggest deal of all is that the bile duct that formerly couldn't even be found..... is working perfectly now (7 months ago the surgeon couldn't even find the opening!!).

Funny thing ------ they (the medicine man) can't figure it out. THANK YOU THC/CBD !! Zero days in waiting for chemo -- zero days of hair falling out -- zero needles and pokes and prods done...... and while I have NOT been declared "cancer free" -- they can't find any either..... GOOD ENOUGH! Merry Christmas!

Love all of you as you all know I do!

Funny part is -- it's not really a "miracle" at all..... seems this is a well known cancer cure and all I did was follow the directions.

Crazy -- but western medicine is NOT the answer to all our prayers.

All I can say is I am sharing this thread with everyone and I can't tell you how happy I am that this was the news as I feel like there are other options if my **** comes back as I really have no desire to do chemo again because it sucks.

I have shared this with my RideJanieRide family (charity I work for) and I firmly believe this is the future of cancer treatment.

Since my my daughters read my post I will stick with my FightUgly but just for today I will say F_ckCancer.

Congrats Greg, keep up the fight!

Greg, I told my "team" 6 weeks ago that you were cancer free. Big smiles here in Ga.
So happy for you, Gwen, and the family!!!!

You have no idea how good it looks!

Mind you --- I still have some major health issues. I still have a tumor on my liver..... and it's not a happy camper because of it etc.... but that's a different issue than having a cancerous tumor that's infected my lymph nodes -- WHICH WAS THE CASE mid May!!

They're running some "autoimmune" tests on me now -- because if it's not cancer -- then what is going on? That sort of thinking..... So while this is FANTASTIC news ----- THEY still think they're going to find a "reason".


Here's my thinking..... I H-A-D cancer.... the original diagnosis was probably correct. What THEY can't see is that my choice of treatment did what they can't. Fixed the problem. I don't know - and I guess we might never really know. Did I, or did I not, have stage IV terminal cancer. The surgeon that did the original work says I did. I trust him. This is the second surgery he's done on me. We have history. He's seen plenty of these tumors in his time. The guy is not going to lightly say --- YOU HAVE SIX MONTHS TO LIVE.... he knows what he saw with his own highly skilled eyes.

What they're seeing (mind you -- these two doctors I saw are LIVER CANCER SPECIALISTS -- so they're doing nothing but liver diseases!) 7 months later is someone that should be dead..... nobody has these tumors and lives... and their patients are getting sicker and sicker with each visit. While I'm doing jumping jacks. LOL It's crazy but I'm going with it!

Greg,

This has been a very informational thread. It is awesome that you have been able to take your life back! I actually have this thread saved to my computer in the event I need to refer to it at a later or share with someone in need.

I have been entertaining using the CBD oil for inflammation and had seen this article yesterday

https://www.leafly.com/news/politics/new-dea-rule-says-cbd-oil-really-truly-no-joke-illegal

With so many internet news outlets on the worldwide web it's becoming more and more difficult to decipher what's real and what's not.

have you had any issues acquiring CBD oil as of recently?

[DBasher]

Thanks for the new pic, Sieg. Much mo better!

Like a lot of us did, I started looking into the THC/CBD side of things when I got the news, it's a rabbit hole of information for sure. What I've found was, it flat out works for multiple issues as well as your daily health, just like a vitamin. Being in Seattle gives me opportunities to talk with people in the industry and I've taken every advantage of that, the company I work for is actually encouraging me with field trips and training. The day Greg gave the news I had met with a potential customer that wants us to build out a 10,000sf facility, it would be their 3rd building in the area. This market is full speed ahead!

Think about it, it's a plant that has properties that help the body and mind...like carrots help you see at night and spinach makes you strong like Popeye! Thats what we've been told, just like we've been told Weed is bad and a gateway drug. I agree it is a gateway, a gateway to getting away from prescription pills.

Welds world tour continues!
:trophy-1302:

[DBasher]

The question I've got for you, GW, do you believe enough to invest in the industry? The owners I've met have all been doctors and lawyers, they're not involved on the daily operations, just the financing behind it all. I imagine it's like your condo investments. Just curios.

:cheers:

The CBD oils are the easiest to obtain. Many - if they contain NO THC - are federally legal to sell. CBD is NOT illegal -- THC is.....

I have had zero "problems" getting THC or CBD oils ---- but you are placing yourself in a bad legal situation if you happen to live where the state laws are not in your favor. This stuff IS still illegal in most places.

You will have trouble finding the stuff in places that have become more about the recreational side of things vs the medical model many states started out with.

:cheers:



I looked into this early on. There were several opportunities to invest in venture Capital funds that were funding start ups.... typical was a 100K investment for accredited investors.


The reasons that keep me out of this type investment is -- it's typically HUGE gains for the super early investors.... but my feeling is that once the FEDS allow this stuff to be sold nationally and with BANKING..... the big terbacky boys will be totally involved and steam roll everyone else. They have the marketing and the distribution and on and on.

I don't know that is what is going to happen - but it seems "logical" to me that they'd jump in with both feet.

Folks ----- Let's not get ahead of ourselves here --- I still have some pretty serious medical issues. But what I'm not dealing with is immediate death -- and now I can RELAX a little because at least I'm not having to deal with a disease that is spreading all over and causing a ton of other problems! Can't tell you how happy that makes me!

Well..... I believe the above (what Basher wrote) to be true.... as it certainly "SEEMS" to have worked for me. Just like it has worked for so many other folks that have shared their stories on the Internet. I always figured they were BS !! Now I'm thinking everyone ELSE is full of BS -- and WE got it right! LOL


The reason I started this thread is because the information is so scattered and hodge podge... and the more you read the deeper you get and the more confused you can become. It's pretty damn simple if you choose to keep it simple.

The funniest thing about it all -- no matter how much of the stuff you can take - it won't hurt you no matter what! Tell me what other kinds of medicine you can say that about?

[96z28ss]

So now CBD is illegal, WTF!!
I just got some stuff for my dad and now can't buy more.
That's BS. We need a lobby group to push this at the Federal level. Just make it legal like alcohol

In the DEA comment on the entry, Rosenberg directly addressed the question: What if it’s only cannabidiol (CBD) and no other cannabinoids? The agency’s response: “For practical purposes, all extracts that contain CBD will also contain at least small amounts of other cannabinoids. However, if it were possible to produce from the cannabis plant an extract that contained only CBD and no other cannabinoids, such an extract would fall within the new drug code” and therefore remain federally illegal. In other words: The DEA is confident that it can find enough traces of other cannabinoids in your CBD oil to arrest and prosecute. And if they can’t, they still have the option of arresting and prosecuting based on the CBD oil itself.

[Sieg]

CBD shows much promise in the Autism world and I'd guess it would be effective for ADD and OCD suppression as well. The government, companies, and lobbyists are probably seeing the future income potential of being a CBD middleman.

Wow, when I clicked a link for hellfire's build earlier this week I had no idea I'd find a incredible heart wrenching/warming story such as yours sir. I truly believe your positive attitude was a huge factor in recovery.

My dad has prostate cancer, not quite the death sentence you received earlier this year, but still depressing and unnerving. He has been researching prostate cancer and decided he'd have a better life not going through traditional medicine. The reasons being life expectancy is similar for those who go the chemo-radiation route, and those who don't treat at all, and you don't go through the horrible side effects. He also has treated himself with RSO, and is feeling great. We didn't research it like you did, we kind of just followed Rick Simpsons guide. I will definitely show him this.

I live in a state that allows medical marijuana, my son has ptsd from being a marine and going to war, when he got out of the service he was taking 5 types of pharmaceuticals, he now only uses thc and a service dog, and has very little anxiety.
It's crazy to think if he lived somewhere else he'd be on pills still.

So many stories of thc/cbd having huge positive effects, and no real negative effect, it really is ridiculous that it's so stigmatized. Hopefully, when more people like you(respected, successful, thoughtful, smart) tell their stories, we can change the laws/policies so that people everywhere, not just the states that allow it, have the option.
Thanks again Sir, even though I don't know you, I was ecstatic when I read your last update, and I thank you for taking the time to put all of this information out there for everybody.

Thanks again, Diego

Thank you Diego! How very kind of you sir!

Having just met with liver and pancreatic cancer specialists..... and they can't explain why I'm not dead - or why the cancer isn't spreading - or why the tumor, to use their words, "seems to be so well behaved".

Remember these words - and you understand why there's no research etc done on this kind of "cure" - whatever you want to call it..... because "we're from the government, and we're here to help!". Yeah - thanks.... that kind of help I can do without.


Now make no mistake -- I am not "cured" -- I'm doing okay all things considered.... but I still have some very bad days.... and some real medical issues to deal with.... but I ain't dead!

Because we are the Big Pharmaceutical Industry, the same people that got everyone hooked on opiate derived pain killers that have now caused a resurgence in Heroine addition and deaths (as one of many examples of their BS) and all we care about is $$$$$$$$$ may have been a more appropriate description.

In our lifetime we will never see a real study on your course of treatment because it won't make shareholders money.

I for one am just glad you stepped out and gave the alternative treatment a try and that to some degree it has proved to be effective.

What's really important is you are not just alive but living life.

That's just what the FDA and the medical industry does. They don't provide cures for anything, because cure is not good for business and they are all about making money and instead of cures they offer us treatments that make you rely on their products and services.

GW is the braveheart who has shown that the real cures are out there and the big Fart-ma wants to keep those hidden from the public domain. Otherwise the FDA would become obsolete. Just because someone is wearing a white coat with a matching white grin doesn't mean that they are the all mighty saviours with all the solutions. Basically how it works, is that the medical industry now starts the brainwashing of the up coming young doctors with providing them the school material and and lobbying throughout the whole degree. Once they start working in the field they need to follow certain standards in the treatment that are all playing the the hands of big fart-ma.

The real cures were all available up until the early 1900's when they started getting rid of the natural cures and passed things like the Cancer Act in th Uk which makes curing cancer illegal. http://www.topinfopost.com/2014/04/03/did-you-know-about-the-cancer-act-1939

Same thing happened quite recently with the death of Dr. Bradstreet who was just about to go public with his cancer cure using GcMaf. http://www.naturalnews.com/050553_Dr_Bradstreet_GcMAF_cancer_therapy.html

My good friends mother was cured from breastcancer by Dr. Simoncini. http://www.curenaturalicancro.com/en/ No chemo no poison, no side affects.

Thc/cbd oil is still one of the most powerful medicines and not just for cancer. I'm so glad to read that Mr. GW with the balls of steel had the strenght and courage to share his experience here so people can get a better understanding of this treatment and the badly demonized plant that has lot of the answers.

I think another good question would would be why there's such a rapid increase in the number of cancer patiences? They (big fart-ma & FDA) been saying this for years and its all becoming reality now. So they've known this all a long, so they must have a pretty good idea what is causing it...

Keep us posted Mr. Weld you are my personal hero.

Yeah - but I have small hands......


#1 - Thank you for the support and well wishes


#2 - I will tell you that even as I LIVE and breathe -- Gwen and I still ask ourselves --- IS THIS REALLY WORKING? Or is it something else going on? We continue to shake our heads - look each other in the eye and say - WELL - I haven't done anything else but the THC/CBD and I seem to be at least holding my own!


#3 - I found this video which really helps to explain what the stuff is doing. And YES I confirmed that Dr John Hicks was not a quake - and he was (passed away) a real honest to goodness Doctor....



The video below is an hour long - and gets pretty detailed -- but within about the first 10 minutes of it - it gives you enough info that you begin to see what the stuff does.

Now --- This is Dr Sanjay Gupta being interviewed BEFORE he did the special "weed"...... and it's pretty interesting to hear him admit WHY he changed his mind to being "pro" medical cannabis.


z8C6CK3LEXw

[GregWeld]

I want to address another point that is made by the "opponent" in the Dr Sanjay Gupta interview.... HE claims that Cannabis is ADDICTING. He is absolutely RIGHT!


And if you try to tell me otherwise then you're just an addicted pot smoking hippie. When I attempted to stop using the THC/CBD oil and puffing a bit of bud for the stomach cramping I had some SERIOUS withdrawal symptoms!

That's all I want to say - it IS addicting.... not in a "junky" sort of way.... but the body does begin to "need it".

[GregWeld]

The good Lord gave you a body that can stand most anything. It's your mind you have to convince.

Could you touch on the percentages, CBD/THC, of the RSO and what you've learned from the consultation doctor? I know the daily amount has changed, has the makeup or ratio?

The current THC and CBD oil I'm using are both 73% strength.... in other words there's 73% THC by volume --- or 73% CBD by volume..... This makes dosing extremely easy on a 1:1 ratio. Same amount of each is the same exact strength for each amount.


I just got off the phone with new local doctor - to discuss our findings follow up visit after Seattle. He - without seeing the MRI's (he can't read anyway) etc - still says "there's no cancer.... it has to be something else.... cancer does not act that way". Well -- he's not familiar with the healing powers of THC/CBD - and I'm okay with that! Let him work hard to disprove or prove what's going on. Do I have something else? Did I have cancer and now don't? Or is this tumor something different. WTFK's (who the F knows).

[GregWeld]

I found some real good basic (meaning readable and understandable - I'm pretty f'n stupid....) reading on cancer - how THC/CBD work and VARIOUS types of cancer.

I just stumbled into this thread and thought I'd chime in with some first hand experience. I was diagnosed with very aggressive Prostate cancer this past spring. The surgeon literally told me "you've got one of the worst pathology reports I've seen in over 4,000 cases". Basically, I thought I was f**ked. My wife had serious migraine issues and was researching the use of cannabis oil to help with the pain. In her quest she started seeing anecdotal evidence concerning the benefits of cannabis oil in curing cancer. Thinking I had nothing to lose I did a ton of research on the PubMed.gov ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17952650 ) and decided to go all-in!

7 months and countless grams of high grade THC and CBD oil ingested and I have little to show for it. My PSA dipped 1 month, but then rocketed back up. The cancer appears to have not metastasized though, so it might have actually helped me out on that front. Unfortunately, I will never really know.

I'm now trying to schedule Brachytherapy Radiation and praying that I didn't let it get too bad. I'm not saying that it doesn't have a positive effect for some health concerns, but not all- which is a very important distinction. It's not a one size fits all type of compound that some on the internet are touting. It might be 10-20 years before they finally figure out how to implement it effectively. I don't have the time to wait it out.

To the OP, best of luck in your battle. If you would like more information on the dispensary I used in the SanFran Bay area drop me note.

Sorry to hear this Lawrenzo! I do know of many cases in which the CBD/THC didn't work for some folks..... but you do know that 50% of CHEMO patients die from CHEMO not cancer..... So we know for a fact that cancer is a very serious - and deadly - disease!

Best of luck going forward!!!!

My 67 year old uncle literally died from a heart attack while in the chemo chair, so yes I do know the dangers. That's why I sure hope that it's not in my future or yours for that matter.

I found a wonderful "beginners guide" so to speak on YouTube - By CannaMD's - Doctors in Portland, Oregon. I wish I'd have known about them! I go to Portland regularly and would have made an appointment.

Greg, I haven't been on here in awhile and when I first started reading this about your problem I was afraid I would keep reading and things would get worse. I'm very glad that things have turned around in a more positive way. It sure sounds like this treatment works and something I would do if needed.
I just had treatment for prostate cancer back in April. My urologist told me my options and then recommended removal. I did my research and three months later had proton therapy in Knoxville Tenn. So far so good, PSA is down to a .26.
A lot of great info. in this read.

Thank you Lewis! At first I was going to respond... "I'm killin' it" -- but then that didn't seem appropriate! LOL

Sorry to hear about your battle with cancer. By the way - the video I just posted says that if you have prostate cancer - that you'd want to take THC/CBD in a suppository. Makes sense to me! The doctor in the video says why not put the med right where it's needed.

By the way -- I have NO PLANS for any ending to this thread.

Same products for canines and humans.... just don't put the same dose to them because while I'm a human and weight 180 lbs.... your dog is likely FAR smaller! Unless you're Sieg and scoop poop in 5 gallon buckets (Great Dane).

I would start with a dose half the size of a grain of white rice -- and maybe work up to .05 ml (or grams - but syringes are measures in ML) -- PER DOSE. Maybe depending on the tolerance - two small doses per day... and see how the dog reacts.

I have a buddy here with the same issues.... and he's doing some THC/CBD oil that I had some spares of (at the rate of dosing - one syringe will last a long time). Says the dog just gets sleepy..... and I think he's figuring 80 lbs.

If you're only going to use CBD --- That won't have the stoner affect that the THC will --- so I think you can up the dose of straight CBD to .1 (one tenth that syringe) and see how the tolerance goes....

[XLexusTech]

Well.... let's just keep our fingers crossed! Are you able to obtain any THC where you live??

Not sure will find out though... Mass and Maine are within reach... if you have a product recommendation I will find it

[GregWeld]

Not sure will find out though... Mass and Maine are within reach... if you have a product recommendation I will find it

If you got the right thing - which I'm pretty certain you did - it will be CBD oil in a 1 ML (1 gram) syringe.... If you can find and obtain the same sort of syringe but with THC.... (the illegal part of pot in most states).... And then you can dose MATCHING amounts into one of those greenie pill pockets or similar.

THC is best for CANCER

CBD is best for reducing the effects of THC

Together they're an extremely powerful Immune system "gear grabber". Remember -- this is not really "medicine" like the other pills you get from the doctor -- this is natural - powerful - and kicks your own body in to high gear to fight this illnesses! You can not hurt yourself, or your dog with this. But at the same time -- it's not a "if a little is good = more must be better" type of medicine. There's a point to build up to (say for cancer) but we don't know what that is for your puppy.... so I'd just try it out.. and hope for the best!

Yes -- that's what you're looking for. A note --- Don't get the larger dosing syringes -- they're too hard to handle and dose small amounts from. Stick to the 1 ML (1 Gram) syringes.

Yeah Adam --- I happened to have seen this very news myself. I think this happens to people that are SMOKING pot versus using FECO (Full Extract Cannabis Oil) for medical purposes -- but it's SERIOUSLY INTERESTING!

[groovyjay]

Mr. Weld,

What kind of changes have you done to your daily diet, if any? Did you go on a certain program, like is done with Gerson and GcMaf? Did you cut off the food supply for the cancer-****er ie. Did you give up on all sugar? All cancer feed of sugar as we all know, so cutting down its food supply will also have dramatic effect on the c-cells.

I read an article which said that it's actually the stem cells that convert into bad cells when they are (when you put them) under a lot of stress, loaded with bad diet for a long periods of time. And with THC and diet you are able to convert the bad stem cells back into normal healthy stem cells.

Cancer isn't just something that drops down from sky and hits your body. It's something that you expose yourself to, like food, drinking, pollution, toxic chemicals etc...

in case you already wrote about it, I missed it and I do apologize for been blind and stupid :)

Keep on keeping on Mr. Weld

I cut out 95% of sugar or any sugar sources. For instance - For years I've drank plain Tonic - I've not had a tonic for months.

I watch EVERYTHING I eat.... and have been especially avoiding heavy bad fats -- I've added lots of raw vegetables... but I've also been on a modified diet by just plain eating better choices.

That is NOT - however - what has cured me - and the reason I say that is because I didn't change ENOUGH to have made a difference like that.

Ryan ---- Today I met with my Internist Doctor - after he did a complete review of the latest MRI's and Autoimmune blood work etc.

His "report" -- I have NO CANCER -- I HAVE NO TUMOR -- My liver function is perfect.... The STENT is working great - and so is the other bile duct (the one they couldn't even find 7 months ago). So I've gone from YOU'RE DEAD to YOU'RE FINE.

I've taken ZERO meds or radiation - or chemo - or any other pills and crap like that.

The cure I did is well documented here. Of course the DOCTORS will continue to tell me that I must have been "misdiagnosed" - that I never had cancer or a tumor - and that there just simply "must be something else going on". Yeah - Okay - Whatever. Next! LOL

So this is kind of a funny situation "medically" ---- because, of course, 7 months ago the surgeon that was up inside me TWICE - declares "you have only 6 months to live"...... 7 months later I'm declared cancer free... but I've done "NOTHING" medically to treat the condition --- according to the Doctors. They won't recognize THC/CBD oil as a treatment.... so just because I took the stuff -- and now I'm "cured" -- that is nothing but ANECDOTAL.



I'll go with what I know. I was really really sick. Now I'm not. What did I do to help myself? It's all documented here in this thread. Period. Nothing more. Nothing less. Cannabis extract FTW.

I recently lost my uncle to throat related cancer that had spread rapidly and made the last couple of months of his life very uncomfortable. He was a korean war vet , a Harvard educated attorney and the vice president of a large corporation during his time here on earth. To say he was a humble smart man is a gross understatement.

However i read Gregs story here and referenced it a couple of times throughout his treatment to family members and members of the medical staff and it was always met with hesitation and a " oh that is super rare and you cant take a chance doing that " kind of response.

Greg you are a brave man putting this out for all to read and in more ways than one helping open up.... if nothing else a different way thinking about treatment and comfort .

So as many of you know -- I shunned Faceybookie as long as possible... but with the cancer - too many people I know wanted to be able to communicate that way (gee! WTF do you mean you have friends that aren't car people!).....

There are MANY great informational sites around the internet -- but I find this one particularly interesting and helpful for CANCER PATIENTS. Or just about THC/CBD and illnesses in general.

CBD arrived just waiting on the THC now

[GregWeld]

Don't wait! Get some CBD going right away! Start by dosing .1 Ml (there's 10 doses in a syringe). Try one with food give it TWO FULL HOURS - if dosing with gel caps - to get into his system -- then see if he "feels" weird or anything from it - if not GREAT!

When you get the THC --- add to the gel cap - about .05 ML - to the .1 ML of CBD about an hour before bed.... see how that goes. Can he wake up to relieve himself at night - how does he feel - is he stable to walk - disoriented etc...... and if he's doing well -- do that dose (if tolerated well at night) in the morning with food -- see how that goes -- and if he's up to it - do another dose (same size) late afternoon..... and then DOUBLE the dose at night.

The reason for doubling the dose at night is that it builds his overall tolerance up..... because every 4 or 5 days you're going to NEED to double the dosages until he can take ONE FULL SYRINGE OF EACH PER DAY (taking larger dose at night and less during the day).

HE WILL SLEEP A LOT !!! This stuff is powerful! It takes 2 POUNDS of pot to make 2 ounces of THC --- and takes 2 more pounds of hemp/cannabis to make the CBD!! So that's like 4 pounds of pot ingested in 90 days. DOOOOOOOD ------ spoken like Spicolli....... it kicks your butt!

[GregWeld]

Just to be perfectly clear --- Your government - via the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) says there is NO MEDICINAL USE for Cannabis - of any kind. And they'd like to also outlaw CBD - why? Because it comes from Cannabis!

Yes --- I've seen that "cure" --- it should be PEPPER OIL -- not actual pepper.....

I guess none of that will "hurt" since they are natural products..... and I thought about adding some of the "cures" people post -- and then the more I got in to it ---- not one single place did I ever see a discussion of exactly any of them did - or how they worked...... so decided I might as well try a coffee enema (not!) which was also suggested.

I just couldn't find any medical "backing" unlike the THC and CBD which seems to have actual science behind it. IDK. WTF.

Somehow missed a response to this. THANK YOU first of all. And -- the "hesitation" is exactly the response I get --- except when I was telling my buddies (he's a heart surgeon in Boise) girlfriend (she's a nurse) last night. She said her friend, also a nurse, has taken to studying this in earnest! And she (Paige) was absolutely certain that the THC and CBD did the trick. She also shook her head at the "medical community" for not at least beginning to look in to some of this stuff. For the love of god -- you'd think these are smart people, and that a couple hours of searching and reading, would open them up to at least questioning some of it.

[GregWeld]

I'm only going to post this because note where this is PUBLISHED ---- and also note that the DEA (Drug "has not enforced anything" Enforcement Administration has declared Cannabis has zero medical use...... none.

Really.....


Do they look as stupid as they are?? OMG!

A wild 7 months is an understatement for sure!


I am dosing .1 ML of THC and CBD oil (FECO -- or what's called Full Extract Cannabis Oil) per day. I intend to take this every day for the rest of my life -- it doesn't hurt me - doesn't affect me (taken before bed) and certainly I'll credit it for the reason I'm still on this side of the dirt!

I just don't care what the doctors tell you ----- MEDICAL cannabis extracts (not smoking) will cure many many ailments. I'm 100% convinced I'm alive and doing well today because of it and ONLY because of it.

I just hope that the many many people I've helped find this and given them information about it etc have the same miraculous turnaround I've had. Lately I've been helping 1 or 2 people PER DAY with information about how to get started etc. While it saddens me to know this many people are having cancer (and other) issues..... I'm heartened to know that MOST are less severe than what I was diagnosed with.

So one week from today I have my pet scan. I have my fingers crossed that the nodules in my lungs and in my neck will have stayed the same size. If not then we get to decide the next step in my treatment.

Going this route is definitely high on my list.

[syborg tt]

I have good news.

The nodules in my left and right lungs are both stable with no signs of change and this is the best news we could have hoped for. My blood work also came back perfect and the cancer markers came back below normal. Which is what we were all hoping for.

Pretty happy right now and back at it again in 6 months.

I had an appointment and some blood work today at Mayo Clinic.... Liver cancer specialist group there.... and the doctor once again says - "I won't rule out cancer YET - but there are other things that can have the same symptoms you had/have that are NOT cancer". So we'll follow up with the usual regimen of tests and blah blah blah and see what they have to say. This will now be the THIRD set of eyeballs on the "issue".

Here's what I love Marty..... The doctor tells me "there's just no evidence that CBD's work"....... So later when I asked him about various treatments - he says "Don't take those CBD's they damage the liver".

REALLY? The Doctor just got done telling me that he doesn't know much about CBD and THC because there's not enough studies and lack of evidence because of that -- but now he KNOWS this plant material (that's all it is) is going to "damage" my liver. WTF. Gwen and I just smile and act dumb as stumps.... then bust out laughing when we get out of the office. It won't help me - and he knows that because there's no studies done but for sure it will hurt me.

Hello,
I have been following this sticky from the start. It's amazing the benefits from this one plant. Yet proabition of it continues. Anyway this might get deleted but I have to share my thoughts. There have been post's about sharing information to help other members? With no response? Maybe it's a click thing, don't care. This is a great sticky and needs to be.That's not my point. If you offer to share info in this very public forum, How about do it? or just edit the post So folks don't bother you even though you put the offer out there! Because there are other people that can benefit from this sticky and the product's it is about. So if you decide to dangle a carrot and then pull it away. please don't, you may think it's fun pecking away at your key board with empty word's. I for one don't.

I spent my valuable time -- the ONLY THING I have of any value to me -- in an effort to find where you had posted a question here.... to see WTF you're talking about. And I didn't find a single post from you. So what is it that you're posting about exactly??

[syborg tt]

Robert, I am also confused are you asking for this thread to get turned into a sticky and possible put all of the information in the first post ??

I also see that you haven't posted since January of 2016 which further confuses me. Is there a question somewhere that you asked and wasn't answered.

Robert, I get ignored all the time and have actually gotten used to it. :poke: What I've learned is to not post while drinking my favorite beverage(s), ask a clear question and if it doesn't get answered, bring it up again. Sometimes theses threads move quickly and questions and comments get overlooked...trust me, most of these assholes will tell you exactly what they think.

Marty, great news on your health! Nothing better then positive results!

Ok, I checked what I wrote never said I posted anything? Just that I have been following it. My mistake I thought this was a sticky. Also I wasn't asking any questions. Plus I have NO interest in being hateful to anyone, but to try and clear this up. What I'm referring to was an offer to share info about obtaining stuff. thru pm. So being that this was offered, I sent a pm. never heard back, ok tried a couple weeks later now doesn't except pm's from members. So back to the point if they changed there mind then edit the post. As for my ride yeah bit of a rant from an different issue. So I edited it.not hard at all.

There's lots of info about what someone needs - how you obtain it varies by state and federal laws. It depends on where you live - what you need - and what's legal or not. If it's not legal where you live - then that's up to you to figure out how you're going to go about getting any.

If you have actual questions - just post them up and we will all attempt to respond.

[bobcat68rs]

Right, I hear what you are saying. But not sure my point is getting thru. A little while back a senior member posted offering help on the very thing's you mentioned. At the time of said post, he asked mod's to take it down if it was out of bounds. It was left up? So I didn't see any reason to not reach out. So if it was out of bounds? It should have been taken down or he maybe should of done something with it if he changed his mind about sharing. If either happened we would not be wasting our valuable time. My search continues for what I seek.
Best of luck to all.

I'm going to guess that the person that Posted that came to the conclusion that what he was doing could get him in trouble based on State & Federal Laws that Greg talked about.

Since these are Federally prohibited, there is not one easy answer. You can't just order it from a State where it is Legal & ship it to a State where it is illegal.

Okay --- Since you're not getting anywhere with your posts let me try to assist you.

If you're trying to find THC (illegal in many states) -- YOU are the one that is going to have to find a source and find someone that will supply it to you if you're unable to buy it locally. That is purely on you, since it would be a FEDERAL CRIME and nobody on here is going to share how they're going about finding illegal stuff. I know I wouldn't.

Best bet -- if you have a friend or relative in a LEGAL STATE -- approach them for help. This is a public forum.... you're going to be pretty hard pressed to find people discussing their "sources" etc. And even if you PM'd me (you didn't) - I wouldn't tell you where I got stuff from. WTF -- nobody knows who you are etc.

I hate to be so "cryptic" but you must understand that the info posted here is for everyone to understand what they NEED --- NOT HOW TO GET IT.

Ah --- yeah the whole facebook thing is still a learning curve for me Wayne.... and I turned off their messaging thing because people I didn't know etc started popping up asking questions. It's one thing for me to share info etc with my friends -- such as everyone on here..... but I'm not doing that over there.

I'm doing pretty well all things considered. Yesterday I had a procedure done at the Mayo Clinic here. It's called an ERCP - they go thru your face down to your stomach and up and look at the liver and they can poke around in there etc. The "plan" was to attempt to get an actual biopsy - since we never got actual confirmation of "cancer" other than eyeballs on the problem - which isn't definitive and most doctors can't prescribe or offer advice - because they really don't know for certain what they're dealing with. SO...... that was done and we now wait for test results. They were also going to attempt to remove the two stents in place - but couldn't do that because while one is "coated" the other (the one furtherest up in my liver) is not and is now a permanent part of me.

The good news is --- I've had no symptoms.... other than a serious lack of energy (directly related to my liver issues)..... the bad news is -- the stents will now cause my death even if I do not have cancer. There is only one working bile duct - and it has the stents - and they WILL plug up and that will kill me. How long that takes etc is anyones guess but it's measured in months not years.

So --- while I might have done myself a world of good with the THC/CBD treatment..... it might all now be for naught. I may have cured the cancer -- but the intervention that needed to take place to get me thru the night 9 months ago (the stents) -- may very well be what does me in. Kind of ironic.

[GregWeld]

Here's the crazy part of this -----


I bought a new long range rifle (A Surgeon in a Cadex Defence chassis) while here. That came with a two day long range shooting class (comes with any rifle purchase from McMillan Firearms). I was able to ring a 12" X 12" steel plate out at 1200 yards (not feet -- YARDS). So that was a first for me...... and is pretty hard to do and is something I've wanted to do for awhile now. Check that.

Then - I go to play golf (@Troon) and I get a Hole-in-one on the 13th. A 170 yard 6 iron.... plop she drops in the cup! WTF! Never done that before - been close many times -- been close to having an eagle a couple times -- but now I have another "Check that". LOL


Life is good - then you die. I'm over it.

Speaking of which, it's very important to keep the bong water fresh. Not only does it intensify the "medicine" but it also helps keep your house from smelling dank.
:D



I gave up the whole smoking thing when my stomach cramps went away. I was only using that method when I was cramping. Once that stopped the need stopped with it. Now I just do a maintenance dose at night and I've even been cutting that back just a bit so I'm not as messed up in the mornings (trust me people - this stuff is very powerful). But when you walk past the coffee pot by "that drawer"..... yeah it's still pretty smelly over there! LOL

I'm of the same mind set as JKnight. Why can't they remove the stent?

I'm the least knowledgeable person here when it comes to doctors, medicine & medical procedures. But with all the technology in medicine these days ... cutting something out & replacing it seems doable. WTF?

As far as the doctors go, I'd get a second, and third opinion. It's hard to fathom that something installed in your body, by a surgeon, to make something work properly, could potentially end up harming you.
Other than your energy level being off-par (pun intended)...how are you feeling?

I can get a liver transplant without too much hassle..... BUT..... always the big ass in the room --- what they're telling me right now is - I'd have to do "aggressive radiation and chemo" beforehand. Of course - that was the info last week - without the additional new (if any) information this latest biopsy comes back with etc. So I'll have to wait and see now.

Thanks on the golf shot! It was pretty wild....

You'd think perhaps -- but the liver is a major organ and these ducts are pretty critical (to say the least) and they just never discussed that procedure YET. There is also a surgery called "the whipple" but I'm not sure what that is and will ask etc when we go for the next BS session.






Awesome shot!

That is a fact Jeff.... I'm waiting now on the biopsies they took during this procedure (ERCP). What I think they're going to tell me -- is that they only found DEAD cancer cells.... we shall see.

That would be the ironic part wouldn't it? I cure myself only to have a foreign object be the problem. Oh well WTH.....

Working in the medical field with seniors, we always say plan for the best but expect the worse with the caveat that as long as you are able to, continue to live and love as best you can as long as you can simple as that.

When will I or anyone of us die? Doesn't matter but having the mental faculty to be able to make decisions while living and preparing for any eventualities is the best anyone can do - do not go gentle into that good night buddy keep sinking and hitting them shots :bigun2:

I've felt better today than I have in weeks...... of course they "cleaned out" the stent - so that has to let the liver / bile duct thing function better and it's obviously working....

The pathology report is up on the Mayo website - but of course they're having website issues today and it's the only report I can't download and read.... and it holds the info on my condition that I seek. :hitaxeonthehead:

Since they cleared out the "sludge" in the stent -- I have about 1000% more energy. Must have been plugged a bit more than I thought.....

No report back from Mayo yet -- waiting for a F I S H test from pathology.....

How invasive is a stent flush? Is this something you could have done on a maintenance basis until you sort your options?

Good question Jeff and I won't know that until the followup meeting with the surgeon. Trust me - since that's the only thing that will keep me alive -- I will be asking this question of him!!

I have the same CBD oil the Greg uses. I do not get along with THC at all....anymore. :D

For myself the CBD really works well for sound sleep, taming ADD, and more.......

I had back surgery in Jan 2002 L3-L4 double rupture, it was a result of a work injury when I was 16 so I've pretty much dealt with some level of daily back discomfort/pain for 43 years. The last few days I've had sciatica nerve pain in most of my left leg causing a noticeable limp when I walk. Today I took a .1 gram dose of Active 25% Gold oil and before I knew it the discomfort had subsided substantially.

It has also worked very well for relieving neck/shoulder tension.

Another plus I found was when TIG welding I tend to get somewhat anxious when I light up the torch and if I take a little CBD beforehand I can settle right in and focus which results in much better welds.

One of the primary reasons I bought the oil was to try it with my 18 year old son who has Asperger's (Autism Spectrum Disorder) which is a functioning level but socially withdrawn due to what is perceived as severe social anxiety. He also has had Crohn's disease since he was 7. CDB has be proven to be quite successful in treating both his conditions though we've yet to begin trials with him.

Bottom line, since the beginning of Greg's venture I've done a substantial amount of research and have become a firm believer in CBD, mainly because of the receptors that are already in our body and there's vegetation on the planet that supports those receptors which for one backup our immune system.

Anything 'organic' source that limits or restricts the ingestion of pharmaceuticals is a good thing for our bodies IMO.

I definitely believe news has been suppressed from us for years in order to protect the pharmaceutical companies and resultant revenue stream.

Another natural product that works well as an anti-inflammatory is turmeric. My wife has been dealing with a bad hip for 2 years now, she started taking 1350 mg of turmeric a day and her hip has never felt better. She'd tried acupuncture and numerous over the counter anti-inflammatory products with limited success.

Our vet also recommends turmeric for dogs, which I recently tried with positive results on our Lab. Vet's can't comment on CBD or THC for animals because the FDA will pull their license, just like they would with our doctors.

Keep an open mind!

No problem bud.

Stent re-intervention(s) (cleaning, removal, addition, trimming etc..) is largely determined by the cause(s) of stent dysfunction/blockage.

I always encourage patients and family members to advocate for themselves AND others - (a rising tide floats ALL boats) YET still have trust left over for their medical professionals. Most really do want to help cause it feels good to ). Keep fighting Greg!!

[GregWeld]

FISH test from MAYO shows no signs of cancer. Now the Doctor still is saying "well.... that doesn't mean 100% that you don't have cancer". Yeah - okay - keep trying to find some. FAIL. LOL

Tomorrow I have yet another MRI (at Mayo).... we'll see what that shows. I know what it's going to show.... NOTHING. But who knows!

Funny how they rely on these tests when (and if) it showed I had cancer.... then they'd be 100% positive results -- but when they think you had it and they can't find any -- the tests aren't all that good. LOL So F'd up isn't it!

[WSSix]

It's got to be frustrating as hell I'd think. Stay strong Greg.

[ErikLS2]

Sounds good Greg, hang in there! I'm they want to help but if cancer gets cured that way Oncologists lose their livelihood, or a great deal of it. Gotta be scary even for them to create a whole new practice.

I may have asked before but have you seen anything on taking some of this stuff as a prophylactic?

Very good question but I have read no studies (they're extremely rare and difficult to read or even find) that shows that.

Personally -- I think if someone is worried about their health overall -- there DIET would be the first thing I'd change.... Eat lots more raw veggies -- and cut the red meat to about zero... and eat nothing but organic. I think that would be better for one's overall health than taking anything.

Also what you eat and cook on is just as important. I do my best not to cook on or in plastic and try to drink all hot liquids in glass cups not plastic.

If you can go to an antique store and buy a good old cast iron pan and cook on that to get away from all of the Teflon crap that is out there. Trust me that **** is bad for you. The side benefit is you actually get iron from the pan and you won't have to supplement your diet with iron pills.

[GregWeld]

The surgeon at the Mayo Clinic called today (while I was on the golf course - of course) -- to tell me "whatever you had is completely gone" -- there is ZERO signs of cancer -- and when comparing the 3 MRI's -- they say it's "a miracle". The comparison between the first / second and now this third MRI are "amazing".

Okay -- I'm still stuck with the stents --- but they're now saying that all the "tissue" looks so good - and my liver looks so good - that instead of having to come down to Scottsdale every 3 months for an ERCP (scope procedure to clean out the stent)... I only need come every 6 months....

And.... wait for it.... They were concerned enough early on that they were talking liver transplant --- NOW they say I'll "never need one".

Doctor was so excited and he shared that he was "showing all his colleagues" my results. LOL

Go figure.


Got this the other day playing a different course -- but thought it appropriate for this post! LOL

None of know when we're going to die or how --- but when they tell you when and how..... that is something none of is prepared to deal with. My life -- which is a model of how great life can be -- retired early - enough dough to enjoy whatever - great family...... footloose and fancy free.... was turned upside-down and destroyed with "you have cancer and you have perhaps 6 months to live". The end. WOW! Nobody is prepared for that.

[GregWeld]

Great news Greg. Been thinking about how you were doing and saw this, made my day a whole lot better.




Thanks Wayne!! I'm doing pretty dang well..... not 100% - not even close - but not dead next week or next month either. Now, at least, I can plan a little bit in to the future and I can prepare for "life after death" (LOL).

My energy level is coming back day by day. Things that used to absolutely exhaust me - now are not such a big deal. Just driving to Scottsdale took me a week to recover from -- basically fatigued to the point of being mostly not functional. Since the MAYO cleaned the stent out -- BAM! Better by the day as the blood gets filtered better. Drove most all the way home --- and unpacked and put (we took a truckload of crap for the 2 months) everything away -- then went downstairs and worked on rearranging the gun safe - and ammo - and cleaned and moved stuff. 100% difference in just a few weeks! Happy dance.


I've been a "doer" my whole life -- get up early - do fun stuff all day -- repeat. This last 10 months has been more like if I can manage to get off the sofa and get another cup of coffee - or call Gwen and have her bring it to me. NOT the way we live at all. But..... that is in the past for now.

Thought I had posted - but perhaps not.


A few weeks ago the Mayo Clinic declared me 100% cancer free...

Now I only have to deal with the "space junk" left behind (the stents that should have been removed but now can not be). I'll have to have a "surgical procedure" to clean them out every 3 to 6 months for the rest of my life. No a bad thing given what I was dealing with (certain death). But when you do the math -- that is 20 to 40 invasive surgical procedures if I live 10 years. Ordinarily - a person my age (63) might only have 1 or 2 in that same period of time. But...... Oh well!

[BMR Sales]

Is there Scar Tissue that prevents the Stents from being removed?

How about some AN Fittings or Shrader Valves so you can do it yourself?

The type of stent used - and the one that is furthest inside my liver bile duct is is not a removable type. It's even less so now that it's inhabited that space for 11 months....

While the two stents saved my life at the time and I'm forever grateful to the surgeon..... they are used to temporarily keep that duct open. Given that the type of cancer I had is terminal - nobody cares how temporary they are... they won't be needed in a very few short months.

IF the duct/stent gets plugged and can't be cleared (just simple cleaning is a delicate act in itself) then it's an "oh well". Thus I live every day - not in fear - but in joy of living.

A guy could attempt to get himself placed on the liver transplant list -- but that list is long - and the sickest go to the top. I am neither sick nor is my life in jeopardy. Nor would I choose to have that surgery.

Headed back to the Mayo in August for a Roto-rooter job in the liver stents - gotta keep 'em cleaned out now - kinda like a creosoted chimney!! Had a blood draw in advance of that procedure today as a matter of fact!


Every 6 months -- or possibly more often (every 3 months) -- it's a trip to Scottsdale and a clean out. Beats dying. LOL

[GregWeld]

I probably spent around 10 grand.....


Figure about $35 per "syringe" -- And I took one of those per day - in THC AND CBD oil..... Some THC is even more expensive... But you need 500mg per day until the cancer is gone. If you can get HIGH QUALITY doses -- and you take that for 90 days -- that's $6300 ish right there.... If someone has done chemo and radiation - they're going to need to take it for twice as long!


I don't know if it's covered by insurance in legal states such as Washington - if prescribed by a doctor etc. Sometimes they won't pay for stuff that isn't text book. I didn't bother to even discuss it with my insurer.

The MAYO clinic bill -- for the last clean out ERCP and MRI and all of that - bloodwork etc --- my out of pocket for that was $18 grand -- the rest covered by insurance.

No TC - you'd need THC for that!!

[GregWeld]

There actually is some type of Cannabis oil that cures skin cancer. For lots of info go to Facebook and search Cannabis oil success stories. Plenty of good reading.



On Facebook - as Charley mentioned - there is a "PAGE" that you can search for --- "Cannabis Oil Success Stories" - you must ask to join (that way they can kick the bozos like me OUT!)..... once the allow you in --- you can then do a very specific search on that page for what type of cancer someone is looking for.

The whole website is filled with stories of success --- and some not.... some of the info is just over the top with every known "cancer cure" that someone tried - flowers - seeds - juices - topicals - you name it...... but the BASE is always THC. THC being the stoner part (if ingested).... THC being what was the original RICK SIMPSON OIL ---- by the way ---- Rick Simpson discovered it's magic when he applied it to skin cancer.

Here's DOSING INFORMATION -- which is what I followed -- but I added the same exact amount of CBD (full extract) on a one for one basis.... the CBD is thought to lessen the "high" - trust me - when you work up to taking 500+ mg a day -- "lessen" is an oxymoron - because you ARE a walking moron! It's not "bad" - it's neither here nor there.... but that is a tremendous amount of "pot" in your system. I'd rather just be sleepy and stoned - and alive - than sick as a dog - taking handfuls of pills a day to counteract the other pill I just took - and sitting in hospitals and doctors offices waiting for someone to do something FOR ME --- I'll do it myself.....To me it was half a dozen to one - six to the other. Besides - I wasn't really given any hope or options by the doctors.

http://www.medicinenet.com/ercp/article.htm#what_can_be_expected_during_and_after_ the_ercp_procedure


Yes that is the general description. In my personal case I'm knocked out completely -- the procedure is about 3 hours long - various operations need to take place depending on what they find. This time I had a "stone" removed - they used a wire to poke around - they used balloons - they took pictures - they did biopsies... so a complicated series of procedures.

My personal problem going forward is simply the stents. They are not to be in there on a permanent basis. Normally the patient is deceased before they'd become a problem. In my case - I'm still bouncing around (and off the walls) - so am left with an abnormal situation in which we're all guessing what will be the long term prognosis. The stents are perforated --- which then is an irritant -- and a place for which tissue is trying to grow in to (plugging them) - and they cross the right bile duct tree at its intersection of the left going into the main bile duct -- plugging off that entire right side. All of this slows the flow of bile - causing it to "sludge" and causes stones to form that otherwise wouldn't. It will be a lifetime of dealing with the net results.

This was the first "6 month" view (originally they thought I'd need this every 3 months) -- now we'll try 4 months this next time. If I get a stone that is too large to remove -- I'm toast. So we'll try to avoid that!!

By the way ----- so much for Obamacare -- laughing at this thought --- our insurance is up about double what it was before O'care.... and my out of pocket cost per procedure is about 18 grand. What would normal folks do!?!?!?!?!





Great news Greg.Stay Well!



Thanks buddy! I'm trying!!

We discussed "diet" -- sadly -- that is not an issue. According to the surgeons -- there is not a single thing I can do to alter this issue.





Well of course they did Greg. And as much as they declared you cancer free, you should declare it as well. Say it every day!
Super happy for you and the family!




I can tell when I'm feeling fine. I have not felt well this last month. Fatigue and itchy skin - and balance seems to go away. Given how hard I work out -- this is an issue for me. Driving track cars is also an issue. I need to be 110% to keep ahead of Rob!! I noticed the fatigue at Sonoma and Thunderhill. The heat and the effort was A LOT. But I'm 100% cancer free and will stay that way!

Just had another ERCP where they clean out my liver stents. Take biopsies etc. They have once again declared me 100 % cancer free. In fact. Said I'm the picture of perfect health.

I'm guessing they didn't do a mental evaluation.

NO KIDDING!! Except in your system they might just say -- oh well -- so sorry.... IDK. I've heard that in England if you have prostate cancer and you're 65+ they just say that! I don't know if that really is fact.

No! They did!! They did a colonoscopy - didn't I send you the pictures they took?? They say "everybody has a twin" -- and damned if they didn't find yours!!





Glad to hear the good news, Greg!



Thanks Trey! It truly is great news! You worry about this stuff every dang day.Now I can cut my worry to about 1% and go to just "be vigilant".
