Marijuana With Epilepsy
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Of course this site is for people who have epilepsy, so does anyone else smoke Marijuana and it help them control their seizures and help with their headaches? It helps me tons but my doctor doesn't believe so. I just want to see how many other people out there with epilepsy do Cannabis and it help them.

It`s been my alternative med for years . Every one noticed how it helped prevented repeat seizure`s from happening .... It also help`s to mellow out the pressure head ac from the seizure .... I`v been dealing with spook ,pitmas , and grandma seizures for years ,and maxing out on med`s .....

Yeah, it does help, but you will find doctors who treat you like you're on the street doing meth all night or something when you tell them you smoke "the marijuana." I've been thrown out of doctor's offices for admitting that, even thought there's plenty of research behind its beneficial effects. What's even better is CBD's, usually in the form of oil. THC doesn't do anything for seizures, in fact I think it makes them worse. It's the CBD's that will stop your seizures in their tracks, and help with the pain too, I bet.

You should deal with the three kind`s of seizures , I deal with every month .... Marijuana help`s to keep a repeat seizure from happening . Also help`s to have less seizure count per month . Help`s lo lower the pressure head ace , as well as help`s to relive head pain from the preasure ....
