Exenatide, cannabis and my neurologist.

[Ianfrizell]

Hi all

This is a link to my vlog about my recent routine appointment with my neurologist.

Cheers,

The neurologist seems trapped in an increasingly outmoded paradigm regarding PD. RK Naviaux addresses this dilemma. Once again you've focused upon the personal dilemma quite wonderfully.

Thanks

I always wait for you vlog. I am sure Ian that there will be an ending to our sufferings sooner or later, but in our lives

Oh Ian you are such a feisty patient.! I wish I was accompanying you when you visit your neurologist. I might consider it for your next appointment - it would be worth the cost of the flight across the pond.

These MD's can be such a pain in the ass. This mindless anti-cannabis BS . . .

Your neurologist needs to "listen and learn" . . . to pay attention to your comments - to playback his meeting with you in his mind, and see how uninformed and worthless his comments really were.

Hopefully he will have a little think...

Great Vlog!

You're looking well by the way and your voice is much clearer/stronger 🌿👍

Ian,

He doesn't seem like such a bad bloke. (I wonder what the origin of the word bloke is?) He could be a lot worse. You've got a good attitude, a lot of spunk. It doesn't look to me like you progressed all that much so the marijuana must be doing you some good. There surely is a difference in the quality of THC and CBD you get from license dispensary.

Keep us posted.

Oh Ian, yet another frustration. I hope, having seen your video, that he will get going and manage to achieve something. Your speech is good and very clear now, so that should be an encouragement for you meantime.

Very fair I thought Ian, despite the frustrations you and all of us have, your words were justified, and to be honest you only ruffled his hair! And quite rightly you gave him credit for his positive actions. He seems like a decent bloke really. It can't be easy for him to go cap in hand to the purse-string holders but he does!

You sir, are a Parkinson's warrior!

So enjoyed your informative and entertaining vlog! What type of cannabis do you use? I am most interested in one for sleep. My husband’s quality of life is so compromised by poor sleep and fatigue. Is it Indica? So you smoke it or is it in an oil or edible? We are craving helpful advise on this subject.

[Ianfrizell in reply to Mjm012649]

I use Northern Lights, which is high THC/low CBD (indica). I need the THC for tremor control, but something with a little more CBD might be better for sleep. Have a look at leafly.com for information on various strains...

Awesome

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! I will look into this.
