- arpieMemberSunday Night (Channel 7) also has an interview re Medicinal Cannabis Oil use on Sun night ....
Can you give us a link to that information that you found, please, @berry? It will be very interesting to follow up.
Please note that this post is about Medicinal Cannabis, not your 'over the counter' leaf cannabis that is smoked.
In the mean time, here's a few bits to read up on when I googled Medicinal Cannabis and breast cancer oestrogen:

I haven't read all these articles ...... please let me know if you find anything interesting. - berryMemberI read that cannabis increased oestrogen production. Oestrogen is my enemy, so I'm not touching cannabis
- arpieMember60 Minutes this Sunday evening - Olivia Newton John discusses her use of Medicinal Cannabis in the treatment of her breast cancer & Mets.

Thank you for bringing these discussion points to the table.
- arpieMemberAnd there IS a difference between Hemp Oil and CBD Oil. Check this out:
https://www.healthination.com/health/then-vs-now-medical-marijuana - arpieMemberIt must be a very difficult time for you, Brenda - and my thoughts are with you and your Dad. You are a wonderful, caring daughter xxx
- Brenda5MemberThe oncologist honestly said there is nothing more they can do for dad and to keep on with the cannabis oil as it certainly can't hurt and may be beneficial. He was surprised dad recovered from a bowel infection in hospital (3 blood transfusions and massive antibiotics) and then dad asked him could he go home. We started the Feco (highly concentrated cannabis) oil as soon as he got home and yesterday started it twice a day instead of once. It is a territory where every one is different and there are no hard and fast rules in palliative care.
It gives dad the option, instead of being a constant sleeping zombie on morphine, he can drop some doses and have a bit of a life in a comfortable no pain state on cannabis oil. He is enjoying having his littler grand kids here during school holidays. - Patti_JMemberYes as far as I was aware @Brenda5, CBD oil has been recommended for Mets.
- Brenda5MemberPretty amazing stuff. Dad is prostate mets in his bones and I suspect now he is palliative the cancer has gotten in to a few other places as well. He is on 45mg of morphine twice a day in pills as patches didn't really work for him. This morning he is throwing up. I gave him a bit of honey on a spoon with feco (high strength) cannabis oil and he came good enough to walk back to bed without his walker for a snooze and no more throwing up. We'll get to the pills a little later when he is rested.
