It was a bit frustrating to hear Marama talk about the spaced out family scenario all thanks to Cannabis. She cant seriously think said family would be a functional unit with no issues if all the Cannabis magically dissapeared? Reminds me of a Chris Rock joke about the ghetto being full of swimming pools and Bentleys till Crack came and took it all away....

Hard News: I tried Sativex: it was no…, in reply to Liam Dann,
@Liam Dann, that shipment is for a special approval granted by Peter Dunne, and is for one patient only, the intent being to find a cheaper alternative to Sativex, as the product is a 1:1 ratio oil.

Hard News: I tried Sativex: it was no…, in reply to william blake,
The underlying theme for a lot of patients, including those with MS is the desire to take as little as possible during the day, and to take large doses at bed time, improving pain and sleep, while sleeping through the worst/best of the effects. Even Helen Kelly did this, with large doses in the evenings, and a clearish head in the morning. My wife barely touches the stuff, as she frets about sleeping through our toddler son's midnight wake for a bottle. But when she does use, its the best sleep she can get outside of 20mgs of Morphine in an Ass Cheek.

Hard News: More medical cannabis…, in reply to Rob Stowell,
Peter Theil owns a stake in Tilray, gradually sorting it out I guess, they are EU Pharmaceutical grade now for some products.

Dissapointing from the end of MCANZ that we have been deliberately shut out of affordable products from the USA.
Even more frustrating is that the DEA could probably be challenged on not issuing export licenses, they have issued import licenses.... https://www.wired.com/2015/07/medical-marijuana-epilepsy/Its hard when the "competent Authority" has been defunded to irrelevance and has their lack of competency demonstrated in court several times a year. By enforcing policy that even the US Govt cant/wont enforce, It is deliberately making access harder, as Russell explained, a child 2 brain surgeries down, with another on the cards deserves a shot at this experimental but promising medicine.

Hard News: Is the Ministry of Health…, in reply to billtaylor,
unfortunately THC evaporates at a lower temp than CBD, to seperate them you need some fancy chemistry kit,

Hard News: Is the Ministry of Health…, in reply to billtaylor,
The vaping temps are only 10 degrees apart, most vaporizers aren't accurate enough to do that (even digital ones), besides, good luck finding high CBD cannabis at your local.....

Ties in nicely with our push for a certain Canadian product that is effectively pure CBD for use at Starship in lieu of Sativex.
MCANZ will be chipping in what we can spare for Sue's time. -
