Hello all,

In a recent article Olivia Newton John, who has recently been diagnosed with cancer for the third time (breast cancer), discussed her use of marijuana and other natural remedies to combat the symptoms of cancer, such as pain.

Have you ever tried or have any experience with the use of marijuana or CBD alone for use of cancer pain? Any benefits?

Did you use oil, vape, edibles?

I think this will be a great discussion where others can gain insight from others' experiences, especially since marijuana is not legal in all states at this time.

I am curious... what exactly does marijuana or CBD help you with when taken with breast cancer? What symptoms? Anything other than pain?

cbd did nothing for my pain, but THC did.   Fixed my appetite also.  Still, I take oxy's for bad pain but mentally, THC helps so much.   Lets you escape for a little while.  Nothing wrong with that.   Take Care
