Recent studies/info on immunotherapy w RSO/Full Extract Cannabis Oil
Hi All,
I’m new to this site. You have been highly recommended and I’m writing to the community for help.
I have lung cancer/cancer of unknown primary. The doctors are unsure which. The cancer has metastasised and is present only in the liver. I have been on chemo for a while and on RSO(Rick Simpson Oil)/ Full Extract Cannabis Oil for 1 month. My oncologist has now moved me onto immunotherapy. I stopped taking my RSO as I read a small sample study that indicated cannabis oil and immunotherapy may interact and prevent each other from working. I have since spoken to a cancer nurse, a doctor at a renowned cancer hospital, and a pharmacist drug interaction line about this. They have told me there should be no interactions between my immunotherapy drug (Nivolumab) and cannabis oil, however none of them knew about RSO/ Full Extract Cannabis Oil specifically. They questioned whether it contained both THC and CBD which I confirmed.
· I wondered if anyone on this forum could recommend any recent studies on this?
· Has experience of this themselves – using these together?
· Knows anything about RSO/Full Extract Cannabis Oil and immunotherapy?
Any help, information or suggestions anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
