Your hangover done yet? Years ago I had a cure for hangovers .. stay drunk. "You claimed marijuana cured your type II diabetes. Yet you attributed it to the diet while in jail." I guess you misunderstood. First off I have metabolic syndrome. That includes diabetes, bad blood fats and high blood pressure. I have never received benefit to that set of conditions from any combination of diet, exercise or FDA approved medicines that is even remotely like the gain that I've seen with cannabinoids. I didn't claim cure. I claimed reversal. A backtrack of the progression of the disease. I don't ever expect to be totally cured. All four of my grandparents had problems with these conditions. da bad boy is in my jeans. During the time leading up to being arrested for growing, I had steady decreases in both bp and sugar readings. There were also gains in my blood fats readings. Those results are a little more foggy. For the last six months before being arrested, I hadn't taken any meds for those conditions. While in jail, my sugar readings remained normal. Only after getting out did they run back up again. Bp is another story. That ran through the roof as soon as the effects of the marijuana wore off. After getting out of jail my doctor ordered a set of tests. The results of that set of tests are dated 12/28/07. My triglycerides were 590. Normal range being 0-150. My A1c was 6.9. The comment about diet from my doctor was written on that test result. I can't imagine that a doctor would think these readings were a job well done. What he wrote on that test result was a suggestion. Not an observation. Even with the special diet in jail, my condition degraded. In July I found another source of cannabinoids from things other than marijuana. Application is in the form of a topical oil. Which doesn't get a person high. "Are you employed?" I'm a medical marijuana consultant. Need help?
