-----------------------------------------
Chronic pain: Blueberry, Hashplant
appetite stimulant: Catalyst
Joint and muscle pain: Blueberry
White Russian-ak-47 x white widow-excellent for chronic pain and insomnia-M39 for chronic pain-Peace BigD
Catalyst: is good for Anxiety and Depression.
Purple Kush: helps my stomach and bleeds off my stress/anxiety.
Slow train: ruins me for a good long while and my back pain just melts away
Romulan-munchies, sleep inducer
AK-47-pain relief, day dreaming, anti stress

Romulan: Pleasant slight mental high. *Great painkiller*/minor muscle relaxant. Aided sleep. My heart doesn't race at all on this stuff! Apparently, it has a lower THC content than many, and this may account for it's mellowness. Yeah! It also doesnt make me feel 'stoned' or stupid.
Blueberry Kush: Medium pain control. Medium body high, STRONG sleep inducer. Knocked me out....twice.
Peak 19- Too strong! 1/4 of a puff made my heart race for about a half hour, and made me feel like I was going to be ill. I hate this crap!!
Mango+Durban cross: Decent painkiller, euphoric feeling, 'couch-lock'. Slightly 'stupid' high, and munchie inducer. Makes my fingers feel numb occasionally.
Trainwreck: Anti-anxiety. Muddled my thoughts a bit but not too much to be disturbing. Good painkiller. Slight heartrate elevation. Extreme munchee inducer.
The Skunk#1 that was grown on the PainPal system is VERY relaxing for me, it numbs my chronic back pain and is a real easy on the throat smoke. Two reasonable sized bowls and I'm off to "la la land"
Nevilles Haze is really good for psychiactric conditions, mood, and anxiety. I love Sensi-Star for it's ability to control muscle pain and nausea. It also has a wonderful aroma and taste to boot.
I had a friend (RIP) who used to swear by Super Silver Haze cookies for his troublesome RLS and arthritic spinal problems. I have a couple of people I caregive that gave the strain a trial. Both of them said that the SSH cookies worked better than Rx medication and that Indica's did nothing for them.
They also are very good for neuropathy and spasms from Multiple Sclerosis.
I eat 2 strong cookies a day - like clockwork - and dropped the Rx meds for spasms. This works well for me and it's the first thing I will give to someone
who has MS or bladder problems that come with MS. Nothing I've used works better.
I have said it before, the Amsterdam Bubble Funk has a way of getting rid of my HEADACHES when the pinched nerve in my neck acts up with those top of the cranium gems of PAIN. Without a doubt, better than any asprin ever taken, and with immediate relief. As a general pain reliever, this strain does little for my FIBROMYALGIA. For that pain, i rely on Bubble Gum, or Blueberry to get me the relief i need, for the most part.
BUBBLE GUM, LIFESAVER, AMSTERDAM BUBBLE FUNK, & Kali Misty definitely help me to cope with my FIBO flare ups, by the way
AK-47- A more 'active' high, pretty decent munchie factor after a few minutes, and a very pleasant mental haze. Pain relief is definitely also a good plus with this one: an 8 for neuropathic pain, and a 9 for muscular pain. Effects are felt instantly, and although it's very potent, it doesn't make my heart race at all.
New York City Diesel- This strain tends to put a bit of 'tightness' in my chest. A 7-8 for pain control, and an odd discernable head buzz. This tends to come on slowly for me. Small munchie factor.
Trainwreck (further thoughts)- This is a really great strain to be active with. I've been using Trainwreck in the morning, followed by small hits of AK-47 throughout the day for pain relief, and it's very effective.
Medicine Man- Excellent for neuropathic pain. I've been told by some that this is another name for White Rhino....although it doesn't seem to have as 'active' a quality as I expected from this strain. More than any other strain, this cannabis creates a fogging mental haze that can be shaken off if necessary, but really helps with perception of pain. I give this a 10 out of 10 for pain control and general anti-anxiety/mood elevation, however, I'd save it for the night- it's not the most motivating thing in the world, although it is possible to become productive if you push yourself enough.
Afgooy. Great for stomach stuff as well. Serious couch lock. This stuff will make your face numb.
M-39- Very happy, decent bodily relaxation, excellent anti-anxiety, and good for cramps.
Silver Haze- AMAZING for pain- it's a very even head/body buzz, but it's an alert, cerebral one. I want to be busy when I'm on this stuff.
RomSpice- This is the strongest body high I've ever felt. It literally makes my whole body feel numb and tingly. I give it a 12 out of 10 for pain. It surpasses Romulan by at least half. AMAZING and wonderful! It not only kills my pain- without massive amounts of opiates, but it also helps withdrawl symptoms- VERY well. It brought my aches down to being barely tolerable with advil (as opposed to me lying on the floor aching, shaking and vomiting).
I highly recommend the club on 9th St. (10th st. is okay too, but the staff isn't nearly as knowledgable) in San Francisco. They know exactly what strains suit which ailments. Apparently, Cindy99 is supposed to be excellent for MS- they make bhang out of the most potent strains they have (RomSpice and Cindy99 for this batch), and many MS patients haven't needed anything more than an occasional advil. AMAZING stuff.
Anti nausea strains: (I have BAD nausea due to a bad liver, kidney disfunction, and mental trauma/PTSD) RomSpice, Silver Haze, Romulan, NY Sour Diesel, M-39, Blue Moonshine, are ALL excellent- their effectivness is in order from greatest to lesser- but all of them work very well.
Sour Diesel is excellent for anxiety, as is Bubblegum. SD gives an almost tangible sense of relaxation in the head- it killed a developing migraine before it started.
my personal preference for treating MS, is ANY strong Indica,,, i stay away from any/all pure Sativas,,,
the reason is the effects from Sativas- energetic up buzz,, activates my spazticity with this disease,,,
it turns on my shaking in plain terms, makes me shake more,, it makes me vibrate, -try drinking coffeee i end up wearing it.
so for me,, an Indica,, a very very strong Indica, is what i need to treat my issues with MS- Neuropathic pain,, spazticity,,,
indicas turn off my spazticity,,,
so for Ms in conclusion,, with my needs specifically,, i would have a list with only this-
NO SATIVAS!!!! Indicas Only!!!!!!
Papaya: really helps chronic insomnia esp kief in cooking...
White Rhino: eases some chronic pain and assisted with hunger issues through chemo
Grapefruit: Great for depression but not so good for anxiety issues.
White Widow: Found to be good for depression and lessens anxiety (again personal opinion here)
Northen light x big bud: Good for moderate pain and late picked found to give a relaxing buzz...good for stress through pain, anxiety and long term chemo fatigue.

Not a cure, a treatment. If you have arthritis and vape Medicine Man for the pain and to reduce inflammation - as soon as you stop taking marijuana the symptoms of the disease will return, because the marijuana treated pain and swelling only, it did not cure the root cause of the symptoms.

Our problem with Medical Marijuana lists now is that there is no rating system - for example: all marijuana strains effect the brain so the ability to feel full is lessened, so we eat and eat and eat. Some strains will effect appetite very little, I can (and do) vape Kali Mist all night without thinking about a snack - but it does increase appetite slightly. Other strains like Agent Orange will drive you to kidnap the King so you can get into his burger joint at 3 in the morning.

But .. both will be referred by someone as helping their appetite. So someone on chemo could pick a weak appetite effecting strain thinking that all strains referred are equal. We need some type of rating system, or we at least need medical strain surveys to address the issue based on the respondents relative experience with different strains.

Here's a reverse list I'm working on, ailment and strains that help the symptoms.

I think your making a good point . I think it's important to remember here that what works on one person does not work on the other. This is the same with hard drugs and prescription drugs. I may like very strong pot you may not. Then there is the question of the growers Some growers are much better then others. They are coming up with a lot more strains and crosses and it's going to be hard to keep up lol. I would like to be the one to try lol... I think this list is just a bunch of medusers smoking bud and saying how it effected them. Good luck with your list peace out Headband707

Yes, the one exception that I'm aware of, there's probably more. (I'm only going out on a line as far as chronic and terminal ailments, not headaches ;) )

Kills cancer cells and leaves surrounding brain tissue healthy, doesn't make you puke your guts out or loose your hair. Two up on chemo, but only when done by a medical professional and not some guy cold pressing hemp oil in his back yard. The articles jump back and forth between hemp oil and cannabis marijuana but the actual charge was possession of cannabis marijuana and tetrahydrocannabinol.

All medical articles I've read point to THC being the medicinal component for cancer treatment but it could very well be some lessor know cannaboid.

I feel that anyone should be able to treat themselves in any way they wish, and for a terminal cancer patient this guy is better than puking his guts out all day, but he's shooting for a star with a BB gun if he thinks his hemp oil is going to be accepted as a cure for cancer.

And unfortunately he's never going to get a license to run a study. Catch 22.

.

"Despite the imagery that the title of this post (and maybe even casual experience) may imply, it's not that THC causes cancer cells to ravenously and indiscriminately destroy themselves. Rather, by binding to certain cell-surface receptors, THC activates a cell signaling pathway that leads to cell death. This is a very orderly process, with autophagy just contributing one important step. The authors of this paper work out many of the molecular players in this process, using siRNA and cells derived from knockout mice, although I'll leave it to the interested reader to further explore that aspect by reading the paper if so inclined."

http://scienceblogs.com/scientificactivist/2009/04/thc_gives_cancer_cells_the_mun.php

.

"THC actually activates naturally produced receptors to fight off lung cancer."


"The only clinical trial testing THC as a treatment against cancer growth was a recently completed British pilot study. For three weeks, researchers injected standard doses of THC into mice that had been implanted with human lung cancer cells, and found that tumors were reduced in size and weight by about 50 percent in treated animals compared to a control group. There was also about a 60 percent reduction in cancer lesions on the lungs in these mice as well as a significant reduction in protein markers associated with cancer progression."

HIV: Blue Widow, thats sounds like BS unless the plant can help the immune system or help the body produce white and red blood cells I can't take that seriously

swazi it's probably to treat the symptoms of nausea, depression, etc. Most of these survey respondents are someone who bought/grew one strain and felt better - they may have felt just as good with any strain.

The only way to have a meaningful guide is to rate their effectiveness vs other strains - I'm doing a mini (and very informal) study on strains for clinical depression with myself and 3 others with depression who already smoke marijuana regularly to help with their depression.

I've gone through about 3 dozen strains myself and I've given Kali Mist, Big Laughing, Flo and Strawberry Diesel to each person for testing. I've gotten a vaporizer for each of them so they can get a clearer feeling of the effects. 1/2 cup of trimmed cured bud of each strain for each person. They have to email me an effect characteristic questionaire half way through their bud and just as they're finishing to get more bud. No very good questionnaires, no new buds.

I'm getting them to rate the 4 strains against each other for effectiveness in treating the symptoms they're feeling, to see which strains help best for depression, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, etc. I have a secret way to know which strain is best that I'm not telling them - which ever strain they run out of first makes them feel the best. I haven't gotten an effect questionnaire back yet but everyone is happy.

Next strains to be tested are Bubblegum, Jack The Ripper, Pandora's Box, Jillybean, Chemdog and White Widow (December). Third test (February): Querkel, Agent Orange, The Flav, Trainwreck, Skunkberry, Northern Lights and Cheese BX3. It's a lot of strains but I have everything for December's test in the garden (most in flower) and have my Skunkberry and Northern Lights clones doing a slow veg, seeds for the last 5 strains in my seed box.

DAMN I wish I was a tester lol lol lol... I think ppl underestimate how helpful pot can be for Cancer. Compared to the drugs they are giving ppl now and the liver that is effected by those drugs alone . Pot doesn't effect the liver and if injested is 5 times stronger. There is always going to be variables like growers and when the plants are harvested or if it's a clone or seed etc. Ignoring this reasearch is foolish to say the least Isreal is leading the way on pot reasearch. Trust me when I say their so-called Cancer treatment is much more dangerous . Do your homework like Hobbes is doing peace out Headband707bongsmilie

Its as much a way to give bud to friends and relatives without saying "HEY! I GREW THIS!" as anything. It'll give me a few more opinions on what strains I'm growing does what and get my folks thinking about how the high/stone effects them.

Ok, I want to be supportive, as a grower patient etc. But this is starting to look like a rifemachine blog.

So common cold = norther lights herpes = purple erkle what do you use to cure terrorism Headband?


Lol. . .

give it up. Not ever strain is that desease specific. Sativa & Indica & Kush is about as broken down as that should actually be. Giving a strain specific guide for deseases. . . you might be opening yourself up to some liability, when the patients find out the bullo!

Headband and Hobbs, thank you for all your work. This is what caregivers need. Obviously, it would be impossible for growers/caregivers to grow all the strains, but by studying here, they can load their quiver wisely with the information you've both provided. I would like to see more with regard to strains that seem more effective than others when it comes to pain, insomnia, and nausia.

It appears the official medical community, as it were, and the pharmaceutical world will forever drag their feet getting behind the legalization of marijuana, and it will be up to responsible marijuana growers to conduct this research however nonscientific the results are. At least you are becoming more exact when it comes to getting patients precisely what they require for feeling better. That's where your gold is.

Please continue with this important ongoing study.
