My grandma was diagnosed with myelofibrosis several years ago. We drove down to Florida and bought $5,000 worth of Rick Simpson oil from some trusted family friends who had cured the wife's cancer with the stuff. I believe she had breast cancer. She took therapeutic doses and then maintenance doses. We were hopeful then but it doesn't seem to have changed anything physiologically except for it allows her to get sleep without pain and have pain relief, which really is worth a lot, she ended up on jakafi anyways, maybe the cannabis prolonged the time she had without taking the meds. She's in her 70s and has probably had this fibrotic bone marrow disease for sometime. The first time she tried the cannabis, my grandpa almost called an ambulance because she had a major panic attack, neither of them had ever tried it before. She's a little women- 5'1, about 100 lbs. After she got used to it, it was okay. She doesn't really like the way it makes her feel but loves the pain relief. My grandpa takes small doses sometimes and it helps his blood pressure. She has her medical card, and that's how she gets it in Ohio. But prefers to get the homemade stuff because the dispensary stuff is crap.
I had taken it recreationally for years but I smoked it which probably wasn't great for my estrogen dominance. I don't take it much anymore, my husband takes edible gummies for pain relief and sleep.
He had a surgery and they prescribed him an opioid for it. He avoided the opioid and just took the cannabis and did just fine.
