Devastating news.

Hi Lynn

i hope you Manage to have a lovely holiday in September and thankful that you have such good support

Thank you everyone for all your lovely messages, i am just sat waiting for the lady to come from my local hospice. 

i have been looking into buying some Hemp oil to try seeing as there are no convential treatment left for me but its a minefeild with no clear idea on what strength, type to buy or even what dose to take, i will carry on researching and if i find something i might be happy trying then i will be giving it a go because well apart from the money it will cost i have nothing to lose. thank you all.

Hi Lynn

So sorry to hear about your present state of your illness. I know you think that you have nothing to lose but when I read that you are thinking of buying hemp oil I would ask you to be very careful. As you say, you don't know what strength or type to buy and you may end up spending money on something that is fake from some scumbags who will be laughing away at ripping off someone else and what then? How do you get your money back? 

Take care Lynn and stay safe

Hi

The Body Shop do some very nice hemp products. They make no anti cancer claims for them because there are none to be made. They are nice to use, though. 

Do be careful Lynn. A lot of the hemp, CBD and cannabis oil out there is snake oil. There is no real evidence that any of it works but there are some people getting rich exploiting the hopes and fears of vulnerable cancer patients.

 Hi Lynn, I would just like to offer you a word of caution, like the others here about Hemp Oil. It's so easy, especially now, for you to think there is some miracle cure out there. If there is, it will come from your Oncologist or local hospice. I have friends who live in Vancouver and they came over to visit a few years ago and brought CBD for me to try. It's a lot cheaper there. I spoke to my oncologist, as I wouldn't take anything without running it passed her first. Her advice was, I could take it if I wished. I told her I didn't want to throw it away as my friends thought they were doing the right thing! She also told me that there was no proof whatsoever that it would help, there had been no proper trials done. I like you thought it couldn't do any harm. I took it for three weeks but then felt quite bad nausea. Two days later I stopped taking the oil and the sick feeling disappeared. I would hate for you to feel sick.

Once the hospice has contacted you, tell them how you feel. They may have some suggestions for things that will make you feel a bit better and give you a bit of quality for the foreseeable future. Reiki, Reflexology, Aromatherapy etc they will usually offer at the hospice. They, like Kemp Oil are not a cure but they are safe and can help. Or what about counselling? Worth a try!
