I used cannibas oil during chemo and it helped a lot. It helped ease my nausea, helped with my appetite and the taste of food, it also helped quite a bit with my overall mood during treatment. because i was taking the oil daily i never had to use any of the pills i was given to help with the nausea.

my partner took cannabis oil whilst in remission. I now of the mind that it helps with symptoms of treatment, is not a cure for cancers. His mantel cell lymphoma has returned and he is now taking Ibrutinib - 4 tabs a day. His cancer is now know as manageable and he will most probably take the new treatment for the rest of his live or until they become ineffective. I feel what we need to remember is that each person is completely different and each drug reacts differently to each person. We all know this, but when you read about people being cured by taking this and that, we all always hope. Hope is a great thing to have but I also believe that a good mental attitude and as much clean eating as possible, is way up there in helping to overcome certain ills. In saying all this I would still recommending taking Cannabis oils, just for good overall health. I take it too.

I was diagnosed with low grade follicular nhl in April. Have been reading a lot about the oil and its qualities. A lot of stories saying it actually helps and reduces lymph nodes. I am going to ask doctor about it in September.

I am in remission.. depression and residual joint pain have been limiting and frustrating..I began CBD oil..no THC. About 3 months ago.low dose and increased gradually.depression is essentially controlled. No more hopeless, helpless. The joint pain is much improved..previously, I took 800 mg Ibuprofen 4 x daily.with minimal relief..now 600 mg 1 or 2 times daily with good relief..I cannot speak to its effect on the lymphoma. I was in remission already..best of luck..I do recommend locating and speaking with a medical professional with knowledge of cannabis..

I have no symptoms apart from the enlarged nodes and doctor said as it is low grade I may not see anything for years. But I am not a person that can sit and wait for something to eventually happen. If cbd oil can help I will try. With the oil can you drive? That is my thing with it. I need to drive to work every day

Heard that too, although everyone reacts differently. Definitely worth giving it a try!
