MJ & IBS

[FutureDoc]

Hi,

I am new on the forum and I am wondering other peoples experiences with mj for irritable bowel syndrome or any other natural substances for IBS. I have had IBS for over 10 years and I find that mj is one of the few things that really helps.

Unfortunately there are times when it is not working so much so I tend to get frustrated and take a break for awhile. Occasionally I may feel nauseous too but I cannot tell if that is related to the IBS or to MeDIocre meds. They say go with your gut feeling but for me lately it has not felt so good.

I know there are other options out there, but I am an all natural type of person. I will go out of my way to avoid any surgery or prescription medications but sometimes we are in states or relationships where it appears that there are no other options available. Unfortunately I think too many people can relate to these feelings...

Theres a very interesting article on juicing raw cannabis leaves and buds to cure IBS symptoms a doc in humboldt perscribes patients a recomended 42 plants a yr (if i recall correctly) so that they can juice on a daily basis. Theres a theory that some IBS is cause by a deficiency in the humans endocannabinoid system and that juicing raw cannabis fixes this wthout a psychoactive affect.

Medical Marijuana helps a lot with IBS, it naturally relaxes you etc.

I've had IBS for 12 years now, and I've combusted daily. Now, that I switch to vaporization, it's much more effective. I used to combust 2 - 3g's a day. It always works for me, but sometimes i needed more than other times. Now, I'm down to < 1g a day. All my doctor's know, and they can't give me anything so they just accept it. I live in a non MMJ state so juicing for me is out of the option.

I take no other medications. I've tried a lot of prescription medication. Nothing works like MJ.

Just repeating it.

MJ truly is. I was talking about this with my mom today (she's cool with it, for a 64 y/o). She understands, I'm not kidding when I say, I would have died 2 years ago w/o MMJ.
