From one of our patients today:

"Today was a good day.

We saw another oncologist today. The appointment took a bit longer then we had planned. It seems the Clinic Director had caught wind of my progress and joined the visit towards the end. I don't know if they say that to all the patients, but I'll gladly take another doc being impressed with my progress. Take that Urgo! We were able to drop 1 med all together and made plans for what will start going away next. NICE."


Stage IV brain cancer. Consumed hemp oil in combination with radiation/chemo.

Oil consumption began a week before the r/c was started.

Procedure monitored by the doctors. They were aware that the patient was insistent about using cannabis during treatment. They didn't realize the dosage levels at first. When they found out how much he was consuming they were shocked.

The guy had sat through a class that I ran teaching people how to make this medicine only about two weeks before the cancer was discovered. While eating at a Starbucks he had a seizure. They found a large tumor in his brain that was moving into his motor skill area. They took out about 2/3 of it ASAP.

He continued to have seizures until I got there. That night he slept 8.5 hours. From that time forward he never had another seizure.

The dosage level started out with about 50 mg cannabinoids four times per day. Then ramped up to a max of about 250mg x 4.

They hit him with some pretty massive dosages of steroids. It was expected that his blood sugar would jump up a lot as a result. Never happened.

At one point he had to stop taking his blood pressure medicine.

All nicely documented.
