Jose Martinez, US Army infrantryman in Afghanistan, lost both legs, his right arm and left index finger after stepping on a land mine. Suffering from PTSD, doctors prescribed him pharmaceutical pills to treat the phantom pain of missing limbs, night terrors and anxiety. "I started taking so many prescription pills I was numb to the world." Over time, he replaced the pills - over 150 a day - with marijuana. Now, Martinez fights for the ability of those suffering from PTSD to be able to use marijuana. #josemartinez #cannabis #medicalmarijuana411 #medicalmarijuana #pain #ptsd #ptsdawareness #posttraumaticstressdisorder #leavenosoldierbehind #military #veterans #heroes1388

The Michael J Fox Foundation (MJFF) said last week that lifting barriers to cannabis research, including rescheduling the plant under the Controlled Substances Act, is necessary to promote studies verifying marijuana’s potential therapeutic benefit for conditions such as Parkinson’s patients. “The MJFF supports increased access to cannyfor medical research. Congress has begun to recognize this need, and there are several bills in the U.S. House and Senate designed to remove barriers that impede sage and legal access to cannabis by medical researchers,” the foundation said on its website. “The MJFF public policy team is tracking these bills and working to educate members of Congress and their staff on their importance to the a Parkinson’s community.” . . . #cannabiscommunity #cannabis #marijuana #medicalmarijuana #medicalmarijuana411 #medicalcannabis #parkinsonsdisease #parkinsons #research #reschedule #reschedulecannabis962
The American Migraine Foundation estimates that over 1 billion individuals worldwide suffer from the pain of migraines. 1 in 5 women, 1 in 16 men and 1 in 11 children deal with debilitating pain caused by migraines. A study from the University of Colorado and published in the journal Pharmacotherapy showed that the frequency of migraines in patients who used cannabis dropped from 10.4 per month to 4.6. #medicalmarijuana #medicalcannabis #migraine #migrainerelief #pain #medicalmarijuana411 #cannabis #cannabiscommunity580
The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) is the largest receptor system in the human body. The ECS consists of cannabinoid receptors, endogenous ligand know as endocannabinoids along with their transport mechanisms and endocannabinoid metabolizing enzymes. The system functions as a self regulating harm reduction system, influencing multiple physiologic processes in the human body in response to oxidative and physiologic stress. The ECS was discovered in 1988. Interestingly, there are no receptors in the cardiac and respiratory centers of the brain stem, the areas that shut down the heart and lungs in cases of an overdose. This is the physiological reason no one has ever died of a cannabis overdose. . . . So why is the ECS not studied in medical school? . . . The biggest barrier is cannabis listed as a Schedule 1 drug. By definition that means there is no medicinal value, which of course limits research. #ecs #endocannabinoidsystem #research #medicalmarijuana #medicalcannabis #medicalmarijuana411 #cannabiscommunity #cannabis #science #cme #certifications #cannabiseducation #continuingmedicaleducation482

ALS, also known as "Lou Gehrig's Disease", is a neurodegenerative disease caused by destruction of motor neurons, which are cells of the nervous system which transmit signals to your muscles to control movement. This damage leads to muscle weakness and atrophy (i.e. wasting/shrinking). There is no known cure for ALS and most patients pass away within three to five years after receiving the diagnosis. There is increasing amounts of evidence that cannabis may be useful in alleviating the symptoms of patients with ALS. #als #medicalmarijuana #cannabis #research #amyotrophiclateralsclerosis #medicalmarijuana411 #marijuanaeducation #cannabiscertification #cannabiscommunity502
