Medical Marijuana Use: Miracle Medicine Good for Dozens of Diseases
Phil Leveque Salem

Recently a long-distance patient from Australia sent me a list of the diseases for which marijuana was useful with the website addresses of the references. Here is Granny Storm Crow’s list.

(MOLALLA, Ore.) - When the State of Oregon first legalized Medical Marijuana I disbelieved and was astonished at the diverse medical conditions that State DHS said were acceptable conditions for a permit to use: Cancer, Glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, Alzheimer’s, Cachexia/ Anorexia, Severe pain, Severe nausea, Seizures and Muscle spasms.

There was NO medicine effective for all these. I deduced that officials at the DHS were into the evidence lockers someplace and found some GOOD stuff.

I found out soon after I started seeing patients for marijuana permits that the DHS was far too modest about this surprisingly effective medicine. As I continued to see more than 4000 patients I was truly amazed at the diversity of diseases for which marijuana was helpful and more so than standard medicine.

Recently a long-distance patient from Australia sent me a list of the diseases for which marijuana was useful with the website addresses of the references. Here is Granny Storm Crow’s list:

• Anti-Anguish,
• Addiction Treatment,
• Alcoholism Treatment,
• ALS,
• Alzheimer’s,
• Anti-Bacteriacidal,
• Anti-Inflammatory,
• Anti-Oxidant/Neuroprotectant,
• Anxiolytic,
• Appetite Stimulant,
• Anti-Arthritis,
• Anti-Asthma,
• Anti-Atherosclerosis,
• Anti-Autism,
• Anti-Psychotic,
• Anti-Hypertensive,

• Anti-Hunningtons,
• Anti-Nauseant,
• Anti-Morning Sickness,

• Anti-Tourettes,
• and Anti-Tobacco – Protectant. Div
Even I consider this list to be incomplete.

I can see a whole bunch of people jumping up and down and tearing at their hair about this list. Please understand, I did not make this stuff up and as a Pharmacologist/Toxicologist/ Physician I scarcely believe some of it as I was incredulous about the first nine conditions stated by The Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS).

For “Doubting Thomases” don’t bitch at me. Somebody – Granny Storm Crow – must have spent hundreds of hours putting this list together. There are about 10,000 medical articles about cannabis/marijuana. If you have a couple of years to spare start reading them.
ALL HAIL GRANNY STORM CROW!
