I can get 100 proof alcohol here , won't that work?
I made green dragon for a while now, then made it more concentrated- then cooked it down til I had an almost blak oil - applied it to a spot I had had on my arm for awhile now- the green dragon seemed to make it peel- go away- come back smaller. This concentrate made it 'bubble up' and my entire arm started turning red and hurting- I stuck with it and overnight the spot is smaller and no longer scabby and sore...
If you know someone in Oregon they can get 190 Everclear, no 190 in CA we must be freaking light weights, a friend sends it down. The state of Oregon sells hard liquor ( OLCC ) on their site you can browse the spirits they list Absolute 200 proof but my friend hasn't been able to get it in Portland it's only in Bend.
100 proof is 50% water 200 proof is pure alcohol.

The good news;
Had a small neuro-endocrine tumor on my forearm pop up about 5 years ago.
Just another bump, paid it no mind.
Couple months ago, it started growing.
Snagged it putting on a shirt and it began to hurt.
It had not shown any sensitivity up 'til then.
That's not good, so I applied RSO topically.
Had immediate response.
Did not get painful, not even very red.
On the second application, I used a very thick, sticky, oil made from male plants.
Lifted that li'l skin tag right off, the bulk of it stuck to the bandaid.
Still didn't hurt, but it itched a bit.
Re-gooped, (a medical term :) ), and in 10 days, there's no bump, no scar, and no discoloration.
I stopped "gooping" when I could no longer find anything to goop.
Under high magnification, all I can see at the site is normal skin.
It's just plain gone!
The bad news;
Same oil, used orally for a dear friend's Glioma.
1 gram per day
Gave the patient 18 months without new growth.
Then, it stopped working.
He started having seizures.
They are getting worse.
Condition is now "status epilepticus".
The beginning of the end.
Looks like he's not going to be able to come Island side.
She's afraid of what level of drama an in-flight seizure might cause.
I said, call the airlines and ask how they handle epileptics.
Suggested she crown him with a backwards baseball cap and claim hes break dancin'. :)
Too soon?
Not really.
Humor is the only refuge now.
Helps keep our true feelings from the abyss.
The lesson?
RSO is medicine, not miracle.
Some cancer cells will respond.
Those that do not, will continue to multiply.
Medical science has destroyed his natural immune system with chemo, and caused extensive, on-going, damage with the radiation.
RSO works with your body, it needs a functioning immune system.
Sorry, too depressed to write.
I'll be back.
Sorry to hear about your friend Weezard- look up ashwaganda and Tulsi- both are aryuvedic herbs that work in conjunction with cannabis. Ashwaganda is being used in china in conjunction with chemo and radiation to repair the immune system during treatment. Shatavari and shizandra are also both herbs that target the immune system and rebuild it.
Also pure simple sugars are the best way to 'feed' the brain - by using a very concentrated green dragon with say Ornage juice- the delivery is more targeted to the brain- complex sugars ( fake ones) won't work- they must be simple sugars.
I also saw an Israeli talk about dosing of CBD, too little no effect, too much slows the effect. My thoughts are THC is phychoactive for the purpose titration- get high you hit the right dose?
I just posted some 'recipes' in another thread under concentrates using these herbs in conjunction with the green dragon ( extra concentrated) - good luck and let me know how it goes!
This is small part from a journal I have written How I make RSO (Concentrated Cannabis Oil):Quote:

These are the two solvents I would choose from, they are a bit weaker than others, but in my opinion, much safer than the alternative.
A coffee mug warmer, no exceptions. One person used a coffee pot warmer plate and his entire batch of oil was destroyed. It looked great but it had zero potency and his starting bud material was very potent."
Just my opinion. 100 proof or other proof alcohols may work for some recipes, or may work for RSO, I just don't recommend it. If you know that you can get a grain alcohol that is higher than 190 proof, then God bless you!
Either way, this is what I recommend, no exceptions, for treating a serious illness.
Hi!
GrowGoddess, what strains did you use to make oil for your Hodgkin's Lymphoma patient?
I am happy to share that information.Quote:

Dr. Atomic Blueberry Jam: very difficult phenotype to get. I don't recommend it. Too many phenotypes to go through to get a good one, unfortunately. Also, it makes a darker colored oil, but it is potent. I would replace this strain with White Widow.
One of my favorites, but it is not available, clone only. I found it in bag seed about 8 years ago. I call it 4-G. TGA Qush would be a good alternative to the 4-G strain.
I recommend using 4 strains whenever possible, if not more. Out of the strains I mentioned, I think the Querkle is my favorite for making oil. Unfortunately I never got to try the shorter phenotype which is Urkle dominant.
I would suggest to take a look at my photo gallery to see the strains for yourself, but it seems once again my gallery is trashed. I fixed it twice already, but just don't have time to fix it again. It has happened at other sites too. Must be a maintenance issue/software update or something.
Thanks GrowGoddess.
My mother is rapidly dying of triple negative breast cancer. She has been a lifelong pot smoker and when she was diagnosed she panicked and intensely researched nearly every purported cure and treatment out there. (She is an excellent researcher) She eventually settled on getting treated at Dana-Farber at a ridiculous expense. 8 months of chemo followed by months of radiation and her likelihood of survival is still pretty dim.
As she started chemo she learned about Rick Simpson oil and began to investigate, but it was far too late. You see, she is a very private person and even though she lives in Vermont and could easily get a medical marijuana card and grow her own bud, she won't do it because she doesn't want to be put on some "government list somewhere." This type of thinking assumes she's going to live long enough for that to be a problem.
So I considered getting my caregiver license and growing it for her, but I was dismayed when I read this thread and learned how much it would take to produce a small amount of the oil. She certainly can't afford to buy a QP of good bud and now of course I have moved to Barcelona where I can't grow for her anyway. (She worked with disabled people most of her life and badly damaged her wrists and cannot physically do the work needed to grow correctly.)
So, I know this is might be a ridiculous question, but is it reasonably possible to make oil with commercial brick weed? I mean, I can get a pound in Juarez for less than $400. ***In theory***, if I were to process this type of weed for its oil, would it be worth it? Based on the OPs description of the potency I am beginning to think it might work. After all, I used to smoked that shit and it got me high even when I typically only smoke dank. Therefore, it has a fair enough THC content. I'd say probably 7%-9%.
So my ultimate question is this: at what THC% is producing *medically effective* oil no longer reasonable?
I cannot say for sure if the commercial brick would be adequate. What I do know is that the better the potency of the bud, the better. If that is your only option, give it a try. Try to get the best commercials you can find. I can say this. Most of the oil out there is made of small popcorn buds and leaf material. So using quality brick weed may do the trick. I wouldn't recommend it, but if that is your only option, I would choose that over chemo if it were me. It may require to consume more of the oil. Some people have a great reaction to the oil and they become cancer free easily, with a lower quality oil. Others, it is very difficult. 6 months minimum of taking top grade oil one gram per day. I am sure in some cases it may require a year. I would give the brick weed a try if that is your only option.Quote:

Cancer Industry Exposed as Fraud “The Science is False” | Collective-Evolution
Been a few months since I posted here. Nothing bugs me like folks who post a story about someone starting the Simpson Oil and then never giving an update as to progress or failure. Anyway, thanks WKRMN on your fathers update, saying a prayer for him. Let's see if I can keep this short & sweet, a Reader's Digest condensed version if you will.
August 2012 I get the news I've got pancreatic cancer.
September 2012 Got my guts removed with a Whipple Procedure which supposedly increased my 3-year survival rate from 6% to 20%.
December 2012-February 2013 Chemo & radiation. They left the chemo port in my chest, said they'd need it when they came back with more chemo this summer.
March 2013 rolls around and a guy I know ask me if I'm familiar with Simpson Oil. Check it out on the computer when I get home and figure I've got nothing to lose. This guy has a license in Michigan to grow pot legally and turns me on to a 10ml syringe full of this Simpson Oil. Looks, smells and taste like the bottom of an ashtray. Thick & sticky. Start taking it the beginning of May, eat about a ML (or gram) a day. The CT scan I had in April showed a few things still going on down there. I take the Simpson Oil every day while trying to educate myself on it.
July 2013 rolls around and we do another scan, somebody messed something up (or did they?) because the Doc (oncologist) was having a hard time trying to understand what they had written in the report. Doc gets pissed and decides we'll just do another scan in 2 months.
August 2013 I bought a rice cooker and coffee cup warmer (thanks for the recommendations, Growgoddess) and made my own using 99% ISO from Amazon, turned out fine.
Early October 2013 brings around another scan. Went to see the Doc last week for results (5 1/2 month mark for the Oil) and he's happy as hell. If you knew the Doc you'd know he ain't a happy kind of guy. He tells me it appears things are shrinking and for the first time in 15 months mentions the word remission. Says all my numbers are great. I haven't told him yet about the medical marijuana I've been doing, haven't decided if I ever will.
Is pot curing me? I don't know. It's still too early to tell and no one could have an intelligent answer based on one scan. Maybe it's the pot, maybe it's the holy water my sister buys me from Lourdes, maybe it's all the vitamins & supplements I've been taking, maybe it's the prayers. Hell, maybe it's all of them combined. All I know is that I'm getting better while fighting a disease that took my grandmother and now wants me. For the first time since this ordeal started I feel like there may be hope. A chance hit on a Googled website brought me to Cannibis.com and here, Growgoddess's post. The things I have learned may save my life, I surely hope so, and for that I thank all of you who have posted here.
So, that's where we stand today. Now that I've talked your ear off, it's time for another question. How much longer should I continue this regimen until I cut back to a maintenance dose? The main reason I'm asking is I've been off work since August 2012 and found out after 18 months it's in the contract that we lose our seniority. Don't want to lose that as I've been there 31 years. Not sure if it would lead to being dismissed (and losing my insurance) as no one has ever been out that long. Anyway, I figured I'd just keep doing the Oil until the end of December (another 2 months) then dry out for a month so I could take a return to work physical and hopefully pass a piss test. This would get me back before my end-of-February deadline. Ideally I'd like to stay on it full time until the next scan but I guess 2 months is better than nothing. Any input from Growgoddess and the rest of you would be appreciated. Thanks again for all you've done.
Ken
Ken, thank you so much for sharing your story with us!
I understand your predicament. This is just my opinion, but, I might see if the doc would do another scan before you decide to "dry out" and see how things are going. I had a patient that stopped taking just his maintenance doses and his cancer returned. He then had to start the full gram per day doses for a few months before the tumors shrunk away again. He has vowed to never stop taking maintenance doses and all has been well since. He is a lightweight and it was hard for him to work and take the oil, even maintenance doses.
I am a woman of faith and I believe that God has played a part in your recovery. I would recommend to you to pray about it and do what your heart tells you to do. That really stinks that you have to take a return to work physical and have to take a drug test as well.
My heart goes out to you. Peace and God bless.
We will pray for you.
I do not want to hijack a thread but I thought this was the appropriate place to post this. My brother has been taking RSO for 3 weeks. We made Canna Caps from the RSO with coconut oil. He has liver cancer which has metastisized to tumors on his spine which is causing severe pain and difficulty walking. The weird thing is that for the last 6 months, there has been absolutely no cancer on his liver. Been through the radiation/Chemo/surgery multiple times and at this point, the doctors are unsure where to go from here. He is still at the smallest dose and is not building up any tolerance. Totally stoned all day every day. He is starting to get discouraged as he wants to start increasing dosages. He tried increasing last week but the effects were just too strong. Has anyone gone through a similar experience as far as building up tolerance? Thanks
Yes, it is normal. It can take up to six weeks, sometimes more.Quote:

10-year-old is seizure-free after one year of cannabis oil
That's some pot
by Joshua Hutton, Colorado Springs Independent
Amid the sounds of children laughing as they bounce and roll down a giant, red inflatable slide, a crowd of more than 150 gathers, making a half-circle around Heather Jackson.
"I want to thank you all so much for coming," Jackson says. "There are some of you I don't even know â?? which is awesome. Again, thank you for coming out and helping us celebrate Zaki's first seizure-free year."
The crowd applauds. Zaki, Jackson's 10-year-old son, emerges from the crowd, smiling. His brow gleams from a light sweat, joyfully earned on the inflatable playground at Jump-N-Jacks, an indoor play facility on North Academy Boulevard. His mother puts one arm on his shoulder and fans him with a Realm of Caring laminated fact sheet.
He is normal. He is fine.
One year earlier, Mrs. Jackson sat with a friend who worked in hospice care, asking for advice concerning the next treatment for Zaki's Doose syndrome, a form of epilepsy found early in childhood. There is no known cause, and the condition is often unresponsive to medication.
Zaki's seizures began when he was 4 months old. At what his mother calls his "deepest valley," he experienced thousands per day. A 2008 electroencephalography reading revealed more than 200 per hour. To combat this, the child underwent 17 different pharmaceutical treatments â?? all of which failed.
As recently as May 2012, Zaki would have between 60 and 200 seizures while he slept. "They were brief, but very violent," Jackson says. "It was like someone was putting paddles to his chest. Then he began to have seizures where he would stop breathing.
"So my friend at hospice, she said to me, 'I can't tell you to try this, but there is this group of brothers who have helped treat a similar case with cannabis oil. I can't tell you to try it, but here's some phone numbers.'"
The brothers â?? Josh, Jordan, Jesse, Joel, Jon and Jared Stanley, cannabis growers and founders of Realm of Caring â?? created a strain of cannabis containing minimal THC, the psychoactive ingredient, and very high levels of cannabidiol (CBD), the ingredient considered to provide the most medicinal benefits.
At Zaki's party, Josh Stanley explains: "We were reading these studies in Israel from the '70s, '80s, and '90s â?? studies where they saw positive results on lab mice using high-CBD strains. So we decided to give it a try, originally focusing on aiding cancer patients. It was by luck that we discovered it could be so beneficial to those suffering from seizures."
The "luck" came when Paige Figi contacted the Stanley brothers. She had read about high-CBD oils used to treat epilepsy in California. Her 6-year-old daughter, Charlotte, suffers from Dravet syndrome, and she was willing to try anything. The cannabis oil so helped Charlotte, they renamed the strain in her honor: Charlotte's Web, of which Zaki takes 300 mg every day.
Realm of Caring's 501(c)3 status is pending, but the Colorado Springs foundation hopes to become a nonprofit that can make alternate treatment affordable for families in need. Meanwhile, back at the party, Jackson announces that Zaki's last clinical seizure took place Oct. 3, 2012. Her husband, Frank Jackson, presents the Stanley brothers with a wooden sign, which reads "Zaki's Garden" at the top and "Thank you for my first seizure-free year" at the bottom.
Zaki moves past his mother's arm, shuffles through the crowd, and speeds toward an inflatable ship as a few friends follow close behind.
Here is a YouTube Video about RSO helping a young man with leukemia.

Perhaps this may help a little. I have a little personal practice with rso and disease, mine! IF it were me and not your brother, I'd take a very large dose in the late evening and sleep well all night. If the effects were too much, I'd simply take prescription meds to alter the side-effects of the rso! Fighting a disease, takes all the resources available to one!Quote:

Good luck on your journey and please do post results here? :rasta: pr
I think the increase in tolerance requires a healthy liver.
Your brother's is the third case I have read that is unable to ramp up the dosage.
All had a compromised liver function.
The good news is, the active ingredients stay in the body at a higher level, for a longer time.
That's why he feels so stoned. Kind of a "cheap drunk" thing.
It should be as effective as a larger dosage is in a person with normal liver function.
At least that's my take on it.
I am NOT a doctor.
Aloha,
Weezard
I don't know the actual health of his liver at this time but what you say does make sense. If the liver is compromised it only seems logical that the active ingredients are not being processed and flushed out effectively. The other challenge may be the oil. All I had was high THC strains available to make the oil with. In January, I will have some CBD Crew 1:1 strains made available to me. Lower THC and higher CBD content. Hopefully these will be much more tolerable and the addition of the high CBD will be more beneficial.Quote:

I am assuming that continuing even at the smaller doses is better than stopping. I will be making him some more of the lower dose caps until the high CBD materials become available.
On the good side, he does mention that his pain lessens when medicating with the caps. He is able to cut his pain meds in half.
Not really sure why some people can build up a tolerance quickly and most cannot. I suppose the liver could have something to do with it. Going through the RSO procedure is not easily done. It will be difficult. I prefer using a full spectrum of strains, and those strains are mostly high THC. If I were to focus on adding a high CBD strain, I think I would choose Tora Bora. I have seen a lot of test results on that strain and it is very high in CBD.
It has almost been one year since I treated my second cancer patient. The doctors guaranteed him that he would surely be dead before Christmas 2013 if he did not go through chemo and radiation.
Less than three weeks to go and it will be Christmas 2013 and he is very much alive and doing fine! Back to a normal life as if all the cancer crap never happened.
Here is a statement from his fiance.
November 16, 2013:
Day 16: sitting here on the sofa at ****'s thanking God/the stars/Karma/RSO/whoever that he is okay-watching him drink his coffee and surf like the last year never happened... â?? feeling happy.
Pretty darn cool! Makes me feel very happy to read this and to have been a part of it.
We had dinner with our ALS patient last night.
What a remarkable person.
Teaches history the right way, actual facts and the actual reasons behind global conflicts.
His student understand the BIG LIE and all the other dodges.
The kind of teacher we can not afford to lose!
It's a pleasure to sit and discuss most anything with him, and his lovely wife.
He's been oiling with RSO for about 2 months.
He was not doing well when he started.
The improvement is amazing!
The sparkling grin they both had when telling us about the doctor's face, was priceless.
Doc kept holding out his hands like he was handing him a plate and saying, "you don't have ALS".
Then he'd look at the paperwork and say, "you do have ALS".
Then look up and hold out his hands and say, "you don't have ALS".
Then look at the papers and shake his head like his hair was wet, and say, "but you do have ALS".
His gait was a shuffle, now he walks almost normally.
He was unable to hold his head up, was always watching his shoes.
Now, he can look tall people straight in the eye without peering through bushy eyebrows. :D
So, we had a very thankful, post-thanksgiving dinner.
Hope y'all did too.
Aloha,
Weezard
so let's say i know a old moon shiner that make's some real clean alcohol . then that would be better to extract your bud's in then iso ?
i am just trying to learn sorry if i ask stupidly, i am just trying to understand

Nice thing about Ethanol is, it's easy to recover and becomes more concentrated with each run.
Keep in mind that anything over 80 proof, (40%), is flammable.
Those flames are all but invisible in daylight.
Have a fire extinguisher, and a couple wet towels close at hand, use reasonable care, and plan ahead.
Asking before doing shows that you are not stupid.
Being well prepared shows that you're smart and careful.:thumbsup:
Good luck and I'll be happy to assist.

so the old man i know have done this all his life he has told stories from when he was small and learned it from his grand father and father :) ( he is a cool guy :) ) he make moon shine like 89+ % pure :) and i was just thinking that that was better then the use of Iso :) but idk that was why i asked :) but thanks for the the time weeze :)
you are always around to help out guys like me the bedst way you can :thumbsup: keep it up :D
I don't know much about using moonshine and can't offer any recommendation. I have heard both good and bad experiences with it.Quote:

Here is an iso extraction of QWISO hash. It is great for smoking or vaporizing. It is not for ingesting like RSO is. I like it a lot for vaporizing in my e-cigarettes. RSO does offer more flavor. Really, it all comes down to personal preference.
QWISO test run. Triple rinse without the heat that RSO requires, the oil comes out cleaner looking. Only good for smoking or vaporizing.

thanks for your time man :) You are a great inspiration to me :) i look up to guys like you :) i think what you guys do is Really Really great :) and we can only wish for more of you guys :thumbsup:
keep it up pleas you guys save lots of lots of great people and save them from allot of pain's :thumbsup:
im only 19
and this is what i will use allot of time on to learn as much as I can :) for the next 15-25 years :) and then i will start learning people how to do it :)
and to be honest I think that this is Really kind of important for the future against cancer. we just need it to fizzle and in with governments around the world and The doctors.
Pills can not do everything. that's what they do not understand.
it's a shame violated I
Today I would like to share with you an updated video testimony of my first cancer patient. I did not record this video. My cancer patient informed me that it was going to be recorded. His new video testimony was added to his first testimony from a year ago. I am not involved with the organization that recorded the video. I do correspond with them online here and there, but otherwise we have no direct ties. I am not involved with any group, I am for the people and I like to share my experience with others.
I would like to state that I am not posting this video link as an endorsement of the group that produced the video. I am only posting this link because it is a video testimony about how cannabis oil or RSO worked for my patient. My patient that I legally treated under the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act.
Joe began his journey with RSO in 2011. So now it has been two years since he began the RSO treatment. I believe I mentioned previously that at one point he stopped taking maintenance doses and it seemed then that his cancer came back. He immediately started taking the oil again. By the time he made an appointment to see his doctor the tumors had shrank away and a scan confirmed he was cancer free. There is no evidence from the doctors since 2011 that his cancer ever returned as far as I know. I 100% trust Joe's opinion that his cancer was returning, if anyone would know it would be him after having dealt with the disease for more than 10 years. I don't trust scans and tests much anymore anyway, google it and see for yourself. False positives, false negatives, just utter inaccuracies all around.
As you can see in the video, Joe makes it very clear that everyone should continue taking the maintenance doses, especially after the stressful scary experience he went through. I must agree with him. Probably everyone should take maintenance size doses due to the toxic environment we now live in.
This is just my opinion, I am not a professional, I am not a scientist. This is just the way I see it. My life has been very busy and it has been hard. Maybe in the future I will have the opportunity to do a video of my own with my two cancer patients to help show people that this is real. I make no promises to anyone. I am just sharing my experience. Two cancer patients in a row, cancer free at no cost to them. At this point, each patient is now supplying themselves with the oil all on their own. Of course, if they needed help, I would do my best to do so. I give the glory to God.
I strongly recommend using the best buds possible, highest potency in THC. That is how I did it.
If you are a cancer patient, are not convinced, would like some spiritual support, or just have questions, please feel free to contact Joe Crowe on FB. He is more than happy to answer any questions you may have. He is also a minister.

it is awesome :D you have to learn me how to make this some day you got the time :) and i got some high potency bud's in THC :)
--peace--
Take a look back at page 4, post #83. You have high potency bud, you can make the oil. You don't have to go with the RSO if you are just using it for aches and pains. You can simply make QWISO hash. High potency bud is the whole trick and patience while making the oil. If you choose to make the RSO, plan on a whole day. I don't consider my RSO to be fully finished until it has been stored for about 6-8 weeks. QWISO hash I consider that more like 24-72 hours and you can begin smoking or vaping it. I don't consider QWISO to be good for a major illness though, that is where RSO would be best. Vaporizing QWISO or RSO is perfect for replacing any smoking needs. Like for back pain, stress relief, sleeping aid, etc. I have only made QWISO one time so far and it worked great with my vaporizing techniques. It is different than RSO, but that is a matter of personal preference. I think I like them mixed 50/50, at least for now.Quote:

When you decide to make some oil yourself, just be sure to follow the directions. Safety is the most important, quality is second. Make sure you have all of the correct materials before beginning.
Good luck! I am sure you will do fine.
From my experience, oil is the way to go. Whether it be for recreation or medicinal use, oil is the way to go.
Now here is a perfect example about the oil having an inconvenient side effect. A little too much and you have a little bit of short term memory loss. Maybe even a little mid-term memory loss!!
I have been testing a lot of oil lately for experimental purposes and I just realized I posted the same QWISO pictures. I don't even remember posting them in the first place! LOL
If you are going through the oil program, you will be lucky to remember to take out the trash on the right day.... What day is it anyway????
As you get used to it, and with maintenance doses, those issues are manageable. It is not that I have increased my maintenance doses, I have just been consuming a lot more with testing the QWISO and all in my vaporizers. I never experienced any memory issues until I started taking RSO.
Just got to laugh at yourself sometimes, it is healthy, really.
Doing some more testing, sipping on a fresh cuppa coffee, and jamming Christmas music.
:thumbsup:
It's good work you're doing. Seems like Simpson oil, it's real medicinal value, could be the straw that breaks the camels back in regards to federal drug policy.
I have shown a lot of oil pictures and pictures of vaporizers.
Here are the pictures of the cannabis I use to make the oils. Some are old, others are new.
When I make oil I only use the cream of the crop buds. I truly believe the most medicinal values are contained in the premium buds. The most medicinal CBDs and such. This is just my opinion. However, Rick Simpson also agrees.

Premium buds make premium oil. This is the material I have been making my oils with and have had a lot of good luck.
I don't live in MI anymore but if I did I would shoot for some outdoor that looked like yours, really awesome and really organic looking weed! Very nice. :)
Thanks for sharing the pics with us, I think patients would be lucky to have a caregiver as dedicated as yourself. I would imagine more medicinal help comes from making those premo buds into oils, and much less profit. Can tell where your focus is. That's cool too....
Hello all...I'm new and very uneducated about medical marijuana, but I need help for my husband. I am literally making myself sick trying to learn about, figure out, find a way, to either make this oil myself, or what would be the next best option. GrowGoddess ~ Your posts/information are what caused me to join this forum, as you sure look to be very knowledgeable about everything MM. Others do as well, and I would want a conversation with anyone who could help us. Is it ok to ask here on the thread to have a private conversation with you GrowGoddess? I tried to look for PM options, but did not see how to do that. I hope I haven't broken any forum rules right off the bat. I'm desperate to have specific questions answered, but just embarrassed by my ignorance, and my experience thus far (of hoping that my husband can at least try the rso) has been to take two steps forward, only to be pushed back ten! It is beyond frustrating. Please respond and tell me how to get my questions answered. Thank you to anyone who replies.
Sorry to state that this board has no PMs.
The only way to pass a short message is through the rep. system. (Those tiny scales,lower left).
It's not really private, and you get one shot at it, then have to wait quite a while before you can do it again.
And you can't post useful links to anywhere, that's against the rules.
Most of the highly talented members have either been banned, or moved to boards that are fully functional.
There are many good boards that are fully functional.
(Find them easily, just google "Weezard", or "Graywolf" , etc.)
This board has been purposely crippled by the management.
Dunno why, they must have their reasons.
I understand your frustration.
We all feel it.
I'd kvetch about it, if I had a right to.
But.
There is no fee, membership is free.
I stay for the archives, the nostalgia, and a few old friends.
All that said, go ahead and start a thread.
The information you seek need not be private.
Good medical information needs to be shared with as many eyes as possible.
"I'm desperate to have specific questions answered"
If your questions don't involve personal information, quest away, we are happy to help.
I do strongly recommend making your own oil, if you have the time it takes to set that up.
If not, contact me elsewhere and we'll see what needs to be done.
Meanwhile:
Gather, and sanitize, the information that we will need to help you.
Approximate location, specific illness, present treatment, etc.
I know what you are going through just by watching my dear wife.
I'm the "husband in trouble", here, but it's much harder on her.
Just cracks my heart to see her worry.
How can we help?
Aloha,
Weezard
