Have you compared CBD oil to THC for pain? Results?

Thanks- I took CBD oil for about 1 yr while I was on "watchful waiting" and watched my PSA go from 3.8 to 10. The only benefit I can say for CBD oil is that when I did SBRT after ending "watchful waiting", I had no side effects from the radiation.

Prostate cancer cells have extra cannabinoid receptors. Cannabinoids speed it's growth.

I am finding just the opposite-

" In 2005, Sarfaraz and colleagues[30] showed increased expression of both CB1 and CB2 receptors in cultured prostate cancer cells when compared with normal prostate cells, treatment of prostate cancer cells with cannabinoid CB1/CB2 agonist WIN-55,212-2 results in a dose and time dependent decrease in cell viability ,and increased apoptosis along with decrease in androgen receptor protein expression, PSA expression, and secreted PSA, suggesting that cannabinoids should be considered as agents for the management of prostate cancer."

Thank you! I look for some information source how to use THC for pain. I have zero knowledge about THC. is this thing to vape like an e-cigarette?

I read some info about delta 8 that it has anti cancer effects.

Nalakrats, I am in Germany. Medical use of cannabis has been very recently legalized. There is no widespread information about it.

leafly.com may have useful information at least for dispensaries in the US. Info on strains useful anywhere. There is 'flower' to smoke. Edibles like gummies. Not familiar with the other options, which require vaporizers.

If way conservative Utah can approve medical marijuana it won't be too long before they all do. Just my two cents.

Not what you're looking for?
