I’m considering this oil instead of chemo. I’ve heard so many positive things from this as treatment. I’m not a “weed smoker” but I’ve never had cancer either.?
Very interested! I have tried the rub on and the edibles for “pain,” but not to treat cancer.
My mom just got this for herself. To treat her cancer. She said it gave her a headache and didn't use it
Please let me no how she does. I’d like to no everything, her dose, test results, progress etc. I will pray for her success
@1984survivor! How does it help your pain? Have you considered either taking it in small amounts or vaping it? I’ve heard nothing but good results.

I started it a couple of weeks back. It mellows me out and helps me rest helps some with pain too. I have colon cancer which has spread and taking low dose chemo too. Too soon for results but praying it helps. Look up eassiac tea too which I just started last week. I hear it is great for cancer.

My husband has liver cancer and it has spread to his stomach. He was on Nexavar for 3 months but it didn’t work so now he is on Opdivo. A friend of mine told me about CBD oil and I plan to ask his oncologist if he can use it along with his treatment. Does it help with your appetite? Right now he has a hernia that has to be repaired and I’m hoping it will wait until he sees the surgeon so it doesn’t become emergency surgery. The person that told me about the CBD oil uses it and she said she puts 5 drops under her tongue twice a day. Thanks for any info you can give me about it.

For someone who has cancer I was told to start with 5 drops and over a week work my way up to 20 drops 3x a day which I have done. I am still fairly new to it but like it. It relaxes me and I think may help with eating because I am gaining weight. Up about 8 lbs in 3 weeks since starting. It is all natural so it does not interfer with anything. I do lo dose chemo, cbd oil, eassic tea, tummeric and flaxseed. I also drink alkaline water all day. Cancer can not live in a alkaline state. This is my new protocol and my cancer was spreading so we will see if this all helps. I have stage 4 cancer which has spread to 5 other spots searching for a miracle and most of all doing a lot of praying. If you have any other questions I am not a doctor and can not give medical advice but just letting you know what I am trying. I hope this helps.
Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) for Cancer: Does It Work?
Rick Simpson Oil (RSO), an oil made from the flowers of the cannabis (marijuana) plant, gets attention online from people who claim it treats cancer. There’s no solid evidence for it. But some early research suggests that some chemicals in marijuana have future potential as a cancer treatment.
Cannabis oil comes in many types and formulations. These include cannabidiol (CBD) oil, which is often part of medical marijuana.
Unlike many other cannabis oils, Rick Simpson Oil is high in tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the main psychoactive chemical in marijuana. THC is the chemical in marijuana that provides the “high.”

Online reports say Simpson is a Canadian engineer and cannabis activist. After a bad fall, he found that marijuana helped lessen his dizziness and other symptoms. Later, when he developed basal cell skin cancers on his arm, Simpson used cannabis oil as a treatment. As the reports go, his skin cancers went away.
What Is Rick Simpson Oil?
RSO is an oil made by washing cannabis buds with a solvent, such as pure light naphtha, and then boiling off the solvent leaving behind the oil.
RSO is not a branded product. That means there’s no one “Rick Simpson Oil” for sale. On his website, Simpson explains how to make his namesake oil. But he does not sell a version of the oil for profit.
Because RSO contains high levels of THC, it’s illegal to buy in many places. But in states that have legalized marijuana — either for personal use or for medical use — you can find RSO at cannabis dispensaries.
Can RSO Treat Cancer?
Cannabis oils that contain THC may help control nausea and vomiting for people who are going through chemotherapy. There’s also evidence that they can treat pain and improve appetite.
But research has not shown that RSO or other forms of cannabis oil can treat cancer. Some very early studies on using THC to treat cancer have been encouraging, though.
In animals and in the lab, studies have found that THC and other cannabis chemicals can stop the growth of tumors. These lab studies have looked at cells related to lung, skin, breast, prostate, and other cancers. They’ve found that cannabis can in some cases stop the cancer cells from spreading.
Other research on THC and other cannabis compounds shows that they may kill off cancer cells while sparing healthy cells.
Cannabis is generally safe. Common side effects include dizziness or memory problems.
Other Medical Uses of Cannabis
Many U.S. states and the District of Columbia have legalized marijuana for medical use. There’s evidence that it can treat pain, nausea, and other symptoms.
When it comes to cannabis oil, there are also medical benefits. Research has shown that some CBD oils, including those that contain THC, can help control certain types of seizures among people with epilepsy. The FDA has approved some drugs that contain CBD for seizure treatment.

Effect of combining CBD with standard breast cancer therapeutics
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. Sixty-five percent of breast cancers are estrogen and/or progesterone receptor positive. Estrogen receptor expression is a prognostic and predictive biomarker of response to endocrine therapy, which consists of the selective estrogen receptor modulator tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, and the selective estrogen receptor degrader fulvestrant. Cannabidiol is a phytocannabinoid that is emerging as a potential therapeutic agent. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cannabidiol on estrogen receptor-positive and estrogen receptor-negative representative breast cancer cell lines in combination with standard therapeutic agents used in clinical practice. To compare the effects of cannabidiol on breast cancer cell viability, cancer cell lines were exposed to increasing concentrations of cannabidiol. The effects of cannabidiol in combination with the endocrine therapeutics tamoxifen, fulvestrant, and the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor palbociclib on breast cancer cell viability were examined. We demonstrated that cannabidiol dose-dependently decreased the viability of all breast cancer cell lines independent of estrogen receptor expression. The addition of cannabidiol to tamoxifen had an additive negative effect on cell viability in ER+ ​in estrogen receptor positive T-47D line. Cannabidiol did not attenuate the effect of standard treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer with fulvestrant and palbociclib. In addition, cannabidiol did not attenuate the effect of standard treatment of triple-negative breast cancer and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive breast cancer cell lines with trastuzumab and cisplatin.
