We have investigated Marijuana as pain relief for chronic pain associated with arthritis and also to relieve tremors of PD. We have been to the WPC in Montreal and also in Portland where Marijuana was discussed, we have visited an expo on hemp and have discussed the subject with several GPs and recently a Pain Specialist. The consensus is that the jury is still out. Trials in Australia have been too small to prove the effectiveness of taking this product in any of its forms. Like aliveo, I prefer to exercise as strongly as I can, to walk wherever possible and to work hard at keeping one step ahead of Parkinson's. I am 75, was diagnosed 10 years ago and I believe that the exercise I do has slowed the progression of my PD.

Trying to get medical marijuana here in Florida. Someone recommended the inhaler...does anyone have experience with that? What are your thoughts ? Stay strong my friends.

OK, I have finally received my card to obtain med. marijuana. I went to the dispensary and found it quite strange. I had to go in a lone, my husand could not come with. I was not really familiar with the drug at all and did not know that there are so many different strains for different purposes, some for pain, some for anxiety, some for ADHD, some for sleep, etc. My doctor put me in for the calming strain which is called REM as I have trouble sleeping and also sometimes very jumpy. So far I started with the drops and have taken 1 drop the first day, nothing happened. Tried two drops the second day, nothing happened, tried three drops the third day, nothing, I am up to four drops today and so far nothing. They say you have to play and experiment with the dose so that is what I am doing. So far nothing but I am still going. Maybe I need a different strain. We shall see but there is so much information and different kinds of strains. I thought there was only one kind and everyone took that. Well what do I know. Obviously nothing! Wonder if it will work. Of course, my doctor did not believe it would do anything for PD. He is putting the jinx on me. Bean

Try it and see if it helps you.

You have inspired me to work out more. I’m 5 yrs into my PD I’m progressing slowly but I notice a few things changing .
