A friend of mine gave her mother a lot of edibles that she made from marijuana she grew when she was suffering through cancer and in a lot of pain. Apparently she was happy until she passed. She had tried chemo at one point and had been miserable of course.
My grandma has arthritis and a lot of back pain and the doctor gave her morphine. I doubt anything is better than that but it does seem overly excessive, although stretches and tylenol as you suggest is definitely too weak for her.
I think there's a really nice place for marijuana as a pain medication.
- Kalium 9y agoYou're absolutely right! Marijuana has a very useful place as one tool among many for palliative care. I believe parent may be suggesting that marijuana should not be regarded as a universal substitute for any and all use palliative uses of opiates.
