Our Medical Cannabis Story - THCa

Updated: May 27, 2023

About six years ago my best friend had his first tonic-clonic seizure after extreme stress and sleep deprivation. We took him to a hospital as that's the standard thing to do and he was prescribed medication to deal with any future seizures This medication had him severely depressed ,blanked his memory and made him generally emotionless Not to mention he started to have more absent seizures along with another tonic-clonic seizure We went back to the drs to change his medication and the same thing happened again More seizures and more side affects I quit my job and was forced onto Centrelink as leaving my friend's side was life threatening (if you see me triggered over belittling people on Centrelink this is why , our government/medical system forced me on it, not my lack of motivation) We went back a third time to change his medication and this type brought on such intense seizures there was blood all over the walls and our bed It happened routinely at certain times of the day Through these seizures one of our friends passed away n the idea of losing my best friend was all too real to me and even him During the change over of meds I started to read up on cannabis oil and had a friend refer me to a guy I obtained a thc/CBD tincture which only mildly worked but was able to partly stop one of these traumatic seizures When we went to the hospital and I asked the drs there what they thought about cannabis oils, she told me it doesn't work The next two days we spent in hospital with my friend plugged into machines to trigger his seizures and so they can work out what his triggers are At that point we already knew so basically he in there to have seizures that they won't stop which causes brain damage They also have signs everywhere in this epilepsy unit letting you know people die in their sleep from seizures, no solution just fear At that point I had given up on the medical system and sourced another tincture that was THCa based (precursor to thc). One full dropper in the morning and night stopped all seizures and all side effects from the medication We went back about a month or two later to let the dr know we have found a solution to his seizures and to help us legally as he wanted to stop the meds She kicked us out without noting anything down on his file or even being slightly interested in what exactly taking he was . My friend was able to get off his meds with thca oil and hasn't had a seizure since. In the beginning it was two full droppers in the morning and night as well as another full dropper if he was feeling abit off After one or two months he went down to one dropper morning and night and some if he felt off Now he only has some if he feels off Unfortunately the head neurologist at Westmead Hospital still isn't interested and kicked us out again when we let her know it had been 12 months without a seizure I also used THCa for my anxiety that was caused from this nightmare of a medical system and literally felt the affects in seconds Unfortunately we haven't been able to source this oil legally as drs won't refer us so I'm making it my job in life to give you the support the medical system isn't You don't have to count seizures you can stop them Thanks for reading

Omg this speaks to me. 15 yrs ago after a bad head injury from an assault in nimbin (of all places). I lost my memory for months could only remember my gf, mum and home. Memory came back but the gran mal seizures started around then. When I was sleep deprived or had a panicky anxious day I’d fit. first time cracking my head on the ground scaring my whole family with all the blood.

started having seizures in my sleep waking up from them completely sore and drained. neurologist at Westmead put me on meds (12 yrs later they made my blood toxic, had jaundice and 51% kidney function. I had smoked weed when I was like 15-18yrs old…

That’s a great story, I am struggling from stress at the moment and would prefer to use plant based medication rather that the chemicals that doctors prescribe. I’m in the UK and although getting better the availability of plant based medication is still difficult.
