The 2012 INTERNATIONAL CANNABINOID RESEARCH SOCIETY SYMPOSIUM featured a presentation entitled

CANNABINOID RECEPTOR CB2.
A NEW DRUG TARGET FOR MULTIPLE MYELOMA INTERVENTION

TEh presentaiton was given Given by Xiang-­‐‑Qun Xie, Rentian Feng, Peng Yang, Junpei Teramachi, Qin Tong, Lirong Wang, Zhaojun Xie, Kyaw Myint, Noriyoshi Kurihara and David G. Roodman


Still trying to dig up the actual presentation...but given all the evidence (NO thanks to BIG PHARMA and BIG GOVERNMENT) I am a believer that Cannabinoids are the most medicinal substance on earth and that will be proven to cure multiple meyloma.

Thank you truthSeeker for so much information. Recently I met a professor who's been researching medical cannabis for years. He said it was an "excellent" treatment. I will also meet with another professor (one of the authors of studies listed in your post). As I'm preparing a list of questions for this scientist, I'd like your input/suggestions.
Since my diagnosis almost two years ago, I've been reading everything that's available on line and finding ways to locate and talk in person to researchers.
I would also like to have a more direct contact with you. Is there a way to send you a PM?
Best to you, your mother-in-law and all forum members.

Well, my family member with multiple myeloma will not regularly take the RSO cannabinoid oil that I mase her.
She did two short stints on it ans hwe numbwrs came down ans shw was told she no longer nweses her high blood pressure meds. For the life of me, I cant get her ro take a whole cycle of RSO.

I have though, madw RSO for 2 people. 1 with skoincancer who was scheduled to jave it surgically removed. At a preop appointment, hee doctor informed hwr rhat sje no longer had any cancer to remove ans surgwey was cancled. Oddly, the doctor scolded hee for treating herself, told her ro stop doing it, and showed zero interest in how she cured hwe own cancer.

The 2nd person made RsO for had stage 4 lung cancer And givwn a year to live (about a year ago) He was already an RSO advocate before his diagnosis and immediately started oprogressing to 1 gram of RSO per day. His cancer is now undectable.

that cannabinoids KILL cancer Cells by promoting apoptosis, preventing angiogenis, preventing cellular division and preventing proliferation is WELL KNOWN PPROVEN FACT.

That we are not doing human trials on a large scale basis is the biggest disgrace in all of humanity.

Im done waiting on doshonorable ppoliticians and profit driven big pharma..im not asking for permission....I am CURNG my friends and family. You do what ever you want.

I'm not a user and never have been, but fortunately I knew someone who was. After my SCT my nausea was virtually uncontrollable and serious. It was suggested I try marijuana and it worked like the other drugs were suppose to but didn't.
I have no experience to compare with long term, but after 1 or 2 "puffs" my nausea always subsided. I did this for about 2 weeks and then remarkably I didn't need anything for nausea.

Here's a pubmed study, by actual doctors, (finally) who found that cannabinoids (specifically CBD) "strongly inhibited growth, arrested cell cycle progression and induced multiple myeloma cells death"

Here's the link.

http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ijc.28591/abstract

Having personally seen two people I personally know cure thier own cancer (1 skin cancer, 1 stage 4 lung cancer) by cannabinoid supplemation via "RSO oil", i am not the least bit surprised that this study shows what many have known for a very, very long time ...

Cannabinoids safely and effectively kill cancer cells.

But don't ; wait for science to officially catch up ... they are WAY behind. Big Government is staggering research by classifying cannabis as a Schedule 1 drug, and Big Pharma has a real profit motive conflict and simply can not justify funding research to defund their #1 cash crop, chemotherapy. It just ain't gonna happen.

Make your own RSO oil. It's very simple. Cure yourself. Do not be afraid of a God-given plan that has never hurt anyone in its 6000 year history as medicine and is demonstrably safer than aspirin which kills hundreds every year.

Although this is an old post I decided to answer it with my experience. Firstly, my father died of multiple myeloma 21 years ago. My father's neighbor died of it 6 years ago and lastly, my sister in laws father, living the Sacramento area, was diagnosed 15 years ago, he went totally organic, raw foods way, is still living although recently having issues with anemia now. He is 78. So, I am familiar with the disease.

My situation involves someone diagnosed 7 months ago with an aggressive testicular cancer. I researched Marijuana and its link to killing cancer cells. There are huge pushes in Europe to utilize marijuana as a cheaper and more effective cancer treatment and the research going on is extensive. Israel is a leader in research and even has marijuana stations in its hospitals so people can toke to increase there appetite , reduce their pain. They are used in nursing homes as well. Because it is criminalized here, not much can be done here but back door research.

Back to my ex, who came to live with us when he started treatment. 6 months later, 3 diff kinds of chemo later, he is in end stage. He never believed in the med marijuana either, until 3 months ago. His Peripheral neuropathy is in his hands and feet ...it was so intense he sometimes could not walk. You could not touch his feet. He finally relented and got a medical card and we purchased a local version of Rick Simpsons oil (THC oil). He started low because he wanted to keep mental control. He was pleasantly surprised when his neuropathy quieted down immediately. He was able to walk and pick things up without grimising. He started taking it daily as needed. It is expensive, so, we purchased an ounce of med grade and I made my own oil. Ive made 3 batches so far, all bring relief and sometimes he forgets he even has the pain. He is using it in conjunction with his pain relief in the hospital now. His doctor wonders that he is even alive as this cancer should have taken him long ago, but, who knows....it could be the THC. I doubt he could be cured with THC now because of the damage the chemo has done. But I do know, it works smoking or taking internally for neuropathy and pain. One night, 2 weeks ago, at home, he woke up screaming,. A disc had fractured because of the cancer and was now pushing on his spinal cord, affecting his knees and the pain was radiating from there up to his thighs and down to his toes. (found this out later) I dosed him with a huge drop of oil and he calmed back and went to sleep. 4 hours later, screaming again. 911 and er came next...he was in agony from 330am to 630am..no doctor to authorize pain relief as there had been a serious car accident and they were treating the victims. I didnt think to get his oil, even though I am only a mile from the hospital. I wish I could have. It is that powerful. There are different types with cbd oil that do not make you mentally high that work. Look into it. There is no need to suffer.

Marinol is the trade name for delta-9-thc. It is precisely the compound that "gets you high" in marijuana
