The Skin and Cannabis
It looks like there is still an awful lot of research to do when it comes to skin conditions being treated with cannabis. It looks like CBD helps with acne and I have read somewhere that THC can act very much like testosterone and cause acne which is probably the reason that I am currently […]

Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Autism and ADHD.
This is not something i have studied inn great detail but i have wondered whether I am on the spectrum of both these conditions. I don’t suppose i will ever know now that the NHS is all but privatised. It’s not like i could go for a test anyway i think the waiting list is […]

Ehlers Danlos Syndrome – Mast Cell Activation syndrome (MCAS)
I thought at one point that i had this condition but it turns out that the MGUS I have is very similar to this condition. The UK calls this condition mastocytosis. However, MCAS is a sub type of mastocytosis. So this means it is a blood plasma condition. In 2020/2021 i attended a webinar for […]

Asthma runs in my family and there are 2 rather special people to me that have asthma so i am doing this post for them because one of them is really struggling right now and i want them to recieve the help that they deserve. Which means i want this person to have access to […]

EDS & Postural Orthostatic Taccycardia Syndrome (POTS)
I have had testing for this condition i have had the symptoms of this condition since i was a child but the results came back negative. So now of course i’m wondering if my cannabis use (which i wasn’t open about at the time of testing) altered the results or whether i have the condition […]

Fed up of Toxic Behaviours
I really don’t know what is going on, but i seem to have become a magnet for toxic behaviours in the last couple of years. From women with really quite nasty behaviour who take credit for other people’s work and can’t hold a conversation with anyone without shouting and screaming and being completely disrepectful, to […]

EDS Awareness – Gastroperesis
My friend Jenny Tate has this to say about gastroperesis. Taken from her Facebook page with permission. Jenny also has a music blog called Rock Queen Reviews. *Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Awareness Month post* TMI WARNING. Gastro stuff. This isn’t stuff I’d usually post on here, as it’s obviously embarasssing, but in the cause of awareness […]

The Endo Cannabinoid System
With the help of some of my Hemp/Cannabis activist friends, The National institute of health and other media outlets, I though I would do a post on the Endocannabinoid system. Let’s start with:- Who/what species have an endocannabinoid system? All animals, including vertebrates (mammals, birds, reptiles, and fish) and invertebrates (sea urchins, leeches, mussels, nematodes, […]

Hi Everyone. I recently came across this post on The Disability Union Facebook page and would like to see disability compliant play equipment being installed across the country. But thought I would start in Bedfordshire. The following information is from a Southampton council area that has had disability equipment installed in their children’s playground areas […]

Lena Black addresses some observations within the medical cannabis community
It’s becoming tiresome on cannabis pages to see so many anti prescription cannabis people slaying those on legal prescriptions. In an ideal world some of us would like to grow our own and I have respect for all of those who do… I admire the people who risk their own freedoms to supply cannabis to […]

I am sat waiting Rochanna CBD Harlequin Flower to arrive. Just as i had sat down to write this post the courier knocked on my door with the package. So i stopped to open the package, which was wrpped in a plastic DPD bag which is apparently 100% recyclable, only at this point i’m not […]

Stalking Awareness Week w/c 25 April 2022
I was 10 years old when i first knew what stalking was although i didn’t know it was called stalking at the time. I had a boy of 18 sexually assult me after befriending me. After this happened he started following me around. I told him in no uncertain terms to leave me alone and […]

Just had another Medical Cannabis Appointment
3 posts in one day. God i’m a mouthy bitch sometimes. Anyway looks like my favourite oil is back in stock. So the plan is to go back onto the Noidecs T10:C15 oil. Start back at 0.5mls 3 times per day but can increase dose to 0.7mls 3 times a day. I’m sticking with this […]

How to save the environment & life on earth with Hemp.
In 1985 Jack Herer first published his book the Emperor Wears no Clothes. He wrote about how the plant was banned from being grown anywhere unless it was for the war effort. We have had prohibition of this plant for 85 years. That’s nearly 5 generations that have been prevented from using the many wonderful […]

My Garden Accident
Yesterday I was working in my garden potting up some raspberry and loganberry plants that I bought at the end of last season. I wanted to move the green pot in the picture. However with all the pebbles (which I really don’t like as I am at risk of injuring my ankles due to joint […]

An attempt to understand my cannabis oil dosing
This was the first oil that i was prescribed back in June 2021. I got to the maximum dose with this one quite quickly so for every milliletre of oil consumed i would have been taking 10mg of CBD and 5mg of THC i was prescribed 0.5mls twice a day which would mean that i […]

Hemp Textiles
Here is a quote from chapter 2 of Jack Herer’s book The Emperor Wears no Clothes about how cannabis was originally named and how hemp was used before it was prohibited. The word “canvas”1 is the Dutch pronunciation (twice removed, from French and Latin) of the Greek word “Kannabis.”* This chapter also goes into the […]

Medical Cannabis Diary
Day 1 Friday 25 March 2022 12 pm – Noidecs T25:C25 I started the new oil today. It didn’t really smell or taste of anything in particular was quite neutral to me so i wouldn’t be able to fathom a guess at the terpenes. By 3.30 pm i was getting a little giggly from the […]

Desending into the depths of dispair
Just as i was desending into the depths of dispair because the oil that i have been using has not been working and all of my symptoms have been returning, I get a knock at my door with a very special delivery the new cannabis oil that i have been waiting for. It came as […]

Other hemp products that i use & why
I wanted to highlight this article about endocannabinoid deficiency from Leafie. This article suggests that simply eating some hemp seed products can boost your endoncannabinoid system unless you have chronic endocannabinoid deficiency. I was overjoyed that Leafie (a reputable media platform for all things cannabis) produced this article and would like to thank them very […]

Very productive Medical Cannabis appointment
Friday 18 2022 7.45 PM i had an appointment with The Medical Cannabis Clinics (TMCC) as the oil that i have currently been prescribed is not suitable for me as the strength is weaker than my regular oil (which is out of stock) and i don’t think the terpenes suit me either. Given that the […]

Let’s get all Hemp-Mania
So let’s start by saying that hemp could literally take over the world. Could this be the alien we’ve been looking for?! By golly gosh we had/have no need to look to other planets to provide for our requirements. There is a reason why cannabis/hemp is nicknamed “weed” it’s because Hemp grows just about everywhere […]

MGUS – IgA Kappa Paraproteinemia
Trigger warning – I apologise if this post is a trigger for you. I do not mean to cause any harm whatsoever. I simply want to add to the education about this condition and what medical cannabis can do for the world. This condition is a pre-malignant blood cancer called Monoclonal Gammopathy Undetermined Significance with […]

Medication Update
I’m not keen on this flower. It’s ok but nothing special. At higher temps it is causing me to have a lot of excess mucus, & gives me a slight cough. It doesn’t taste great either. It doesn’t give me a headache like some strains (exodus cheese sorry exodus crew) so will be able to […]

Milton Keynes People’s Assembly NHS SOS Rally
Join activists in Milton Keynes to hear about how our NHS is being sold to profiteers. How it will deminish the health care system (as we knew it) and how this train of thought will lead to diseases that we have managed to eliminate in this country, more expensive treatment because treatment wasn’t sought at […]

The Strains of Cannabis flower (i have been prescribed) and their Properties.
I spent a long time trying to research this flower. I do have to say that i absolutely love this flower. It’s very uplifting and good for anxiety & depression. This flower is irradiated by the producers which i feel somewhat deminishes the quality for helping with pain. Here’s what Leafly has to say about […]
