The use of Medicinal Cannabis Oil in Cancer Treatment - WEBINAR next Tues (Aus Time)
There are many different strengths in MCO - to deal with mild or chronic pain thru to extreme pain - and discussion with a professional is recommended to determine the strength/dose you require. Usually MCO is taken as a number of drops, under the tongue (sublingual).
I've used MCO to help control the aches & pains brought on by AIs .... but it is very difficult to get prescriptions in Australia as many GPs refuse to do them - and as the Oil is not available on the PBS - it is a prohibitive price as well, even if purchased from the chemist using a script! - basically, legally, it can cost Hundreds of dollars a month, which is ridiculous, given how easy it is to make the oil if you can source the ingredients.
Please read this thread for an interesting insight into MCO by a BCNA member who was an ex Police Superintendent ...

The good news is that there is The Medicinal Cannabis Compassionate Use Scheme provides NSW Police officers with guidelines about using their discretion not to charge adults with a terminal illness or up to three of their carers for possession of cannabis not lawfully prescribed if they are registered with the Scheme.
Hopefully other states would have a similar compassionate scheme.NSW residents who are aged 18 years and over who have a terminal illness are eligible to be registered with the Scheme, as well as up to three of their carers.
The Scheme does not supply cannabis or cannabis products or endorse the use of cannabis products not lawfully prescribed.
They strongly encourage patients to seek a prescription for a cannabis medicine from their treating doctor through one of the legal pathways.
Read about it here & download/read the information sheets and also the application form.

There is a petition to Parliament (tabled by a Parliamentarian) to allow Medicinal Cannabis Oil to be put onto the PBS to make it more available to patients ..... only 24hrs til the petition is 'closed off' .... please pass on to family & friends to sign as well ...... it will reduce the price of the oil from $300 a month, to approx $6 a script.
