My husband has a tumor in his lung and nearby lymph node but the cancer is not necessarily a lung cancer (it is a cancer of unknown primary), as such after a full year his doctors have had no treatment plan or options. They recommended medical marijuana, which he is using. That is all he is using at this point. Today we go for another PET scan. This is the fourth PET in a year (among other tests and biopies). The tumor has gotten smaller every 3 month scan. We don't know that CBD and THC are the reason but...........perhaps. I will update everyone this week on the latest PET results. We are hopeful but cautious.
My husband has experienced no ill effects from using the CBD and THC (it is legal here in Colorado both recreationally and medically). In fact, it has helped with other pain he experiences from another cause (not cancer) and anxiety. There is limited data as to how marijuana may or may not support cancer care. As it's the only intervention we have at this point, we are hopeful it may help hold off this cancer until we can get a diagnosis.
Hugs to you.
