Marijuana use and Chronic Pancreatitis

Too funny! Check out the HARM and SIDE EFFECTS of the poison called Marinol. You are a druggy who makes excuses for the sick pharmaceutical you drug yourself with.

I was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis about 2 years ago I was 16 but I've had it since I was fourteen because this doctor huwari or something like that misdiagnosed me he said I had acid reflux really bad and I did but I keep telling him there's more pain in my upper right side oh my stomach and my back has been killing me and he said it's just the acid reflux doing it long story short I have cp and have for years an yea man medical marijuana helps a lot with the nausea, the puking, the sleep problems any many more things I've been using it and lately I been gettin out more try to at legate

Um wow. Degree or not you actually picked some of the most poinious plants to suggest here under your "all natural statement". first off, if the goverment lieing to us, and to u really did leave well enough alone. We would all be healthly. But the REALITY here is that they are really just controling our population. Did anyone consider the air pesticided dropped from planes, or blame big corp for paying ur doctor to feed u untested drugs bc the "fda" clears it? Just like its ok to pump children full of antibotics, (67 before like age 2), cause autisum, cover it up, then sign a f*****g law into place where no food producer has to honestly tell u a damn thing about what u are actually eating!!!! Yea i dont know who u are, but wow, ur statements about phamicudicals and natural medicine are way green in ur background of health!!! Right just belive them all as they kill 60 alternative doctors in one year. 60 is so a number that we see in one specilty, that gets removed without a thought, bc that my friend was no f*****g acident! Anything not given by nature will f**k u up more than nature. Even those posious ones. Note that she suggested u combine three posions to see how they affect u. She then made them compareable to pharmicudicals..... the pill form of pot,,,, total joke and the fathest from the plant bc they only bothered pulling one type of canaboid and forgot that they all work together, and if one is not present in the extracted drug, the whole f*****g drug doesnt work. Hello this plant has cured more sh*t than any doctor could!!!! Hello its stilll f*****g illigal!!! Why? Ask urself that and u tell me just how much money that big pharm company would loosw if cannabis replaces all of the top opits. A f**k load! So with monopoly in the hands of the drug companys u tell me whos lieing here????? Oh and btw pick up some alternarive medicine books and get to studying.

Why would you attack Republicans? That is narrow minded bunk. Using marijuana is NOT a political issue for most individuals I know. Completely ridiculous reference.

I'm pretty sure I have SOD (morphine given in hospital made pain 10 times worse in upper right quadrant), but also worried about pancreatitis (pain/burning under sternum/upper left quadrant). Getting and endoscopic ultrasound soon to see if I have chronic pancreatitis. Was on Xanax and Klonopin to deal with horrible pain/anxiety from possible conditions and because no one able to diagnose what is wrong. Benzos might have helped a bit with pain but, I quickly reached tolerance withdrawal and the mental and physical hell it caused wasn't worth it. Took me 7 months to taper off .5mg of klonopin and I still have some symptoms at 10 months off. I used cbd oil to help with benzo withdrawal symptoms, (and it helped) but, now it's not strong enough to help the SOD pain. Just tried smoking some low THC cannabis but, don't like the throat/lung burning. Can anyone recommend a good (organic), low THC oil, vape or even a topical cream that's still strong enough to help with the SOD and possible Chronic Pancreatitis pain? Thanks.

I have chronic pancreatitis unknown cause and find along with many other patients that morphine and other opiates can cause spasms in the sphincter of oddi where the pancreatic and hepatic bile ducts open into the duodenum and that increases pain and inflammation.
I came off opiates, take Pregabelin instead and am a moderate cannabis user and avoid most fats and processed foods and red meat and found that my pancreatitis has been reduced and occasionally occurs. I rarely get raised amylase now. I can say that having cannabis was a lifesaver for coping with pain, but would recommend infusion or tincture or use without tobacco as smoking can increase pancreatitis risks. Also, a lot of hashish is pressed with oils and it can be like breathing in petrol or diesel which theoretically could be a pancreatitis risk. I'd try to get regulated medical grade cannabis..

Hey friend, if you are on oxycodone, dilaudid, morphine, you are on high caliber drugs so it's useless to tell him to stop smoking marijuana...

Don't take marinalor or morphine only when you can't take the pain use weed with no tobacco

My mom is suffering from this and I need help because docs are dumb. I want to give her weed. But idk. Will u please contact me. my mom is bad 88lbs and I am pretty sure she is dying.

"Get this republicans"? Im a hardcore millenial-conservative... Most of us dont care what you do unless you try to force it upon us. Stop "labeling" us like you lefties preach about all the time.

Did that poster ALSO not realize or recognize that tylenol-toxicity is a major cause of pancreatitis?

Your a damn lie, smoking it is not this miracle I've been also for years it was in fact killing me, its medical benefits are burned and turned into a fungus promoting toxin, cbd and thc v are chemicals that when injected or ate prepared by a professional can help.

I would say the pot is a much safer treatment for cp, than the highly addictive meds mentioned above. Less side effects too.

What was the problem I have to go into the hospital next week for an ultrasound they're saying that I have pancreatitis they're going to check my gall bladder or gallstones praying that everything goes well

Totally agree it's crazy how people think opiates are just fine and weed isn't. Opiates are extremely addictive, cause physical neurological problems and don't work after a while because your body builds a tolerence. I have chronic pancreatitis, I use full extract cannabis oil aka Rick Simpson in suppository form and have instant relief and also don't get hardly any problems with fatty stools any more. The stuffs unreal. It has changed my life. I also dab concentrated Extracts as break through pain relief. Smoking bud in a joint or bong can cause irritation so I agree a dry herb vape is the best option or using concentrates such as shatter or crumble are extremely effective for pain. I live in England and its still illegal here but for personal use they couldnt do much at all, and I'd rather have quality of life than abide by the backwards laws in this country anyway.
