Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Cancer / April 2005Ive put my appetite somewhere... just cant find it
Hi Since early Jan I have had little or no appetite. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated in finding it. What have others done? Sam > Hi > Since early Jan I have had little or no appetite. Any ideas would be greatly > appreciated in finding it. What have others done? > Sam Medical Marijuana will give you the munchies as well as tone down nausea and upchuck moves. Get some good pot - in two or three puffs you will know if this medicine is for you ... and in 30 minutes after getting a theraputic dose so you want to stop medicating yourself ... see if you are hungry and start to put on weigh. AIDS been using marijuana for "wasting syndrome" for a very long time with the cops and Feds on their a.s for decades ... and with being on their a.s they have not been nice about it at all. An Abner Lou-ee-ma sort of thing ... sumbuddie who cares said dis :) > Hi > Since early Jan I have had little or no appetite. Any ideas would be greatly > appreciated in finding it. What have others done? > Sam Hi Sam. prednisolone or dexamethasone increase appetite; megace is too expensive. There can be side effects (depending on the dose, but my cat started eating huge amounts the day after starting prednisolone) to prednisolone or dexamethasone; weight gain, mostly fluid retention which can affect the brain and if I recall, falling asleep problems. Let's see..I think we also had to watch the liver and/or kidney function with steroid. http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/medicines/100002901.html And like Alan said..medical marijuana is used by some for appetite. Some partners can inhale the smoke & hold in mouth, then exhale into the nose of the person, so it's absorbed into the nasal blood vessels, instead of into the lungs. But I don't know the exact trick of doing this. Some say it doesn't work; others end up with voracious appetites about 2 hours after a couple of puffs. Don't get arrested if you try this.. Watch for Mike R, maybe Alayne (if I'm wrong). Hugs luv J > > Hi > > Since early Jan I have had little or no appetite.

Downside was he got a skin rash all over his arms and it can do damage to the stomach lining, although Lazaprazole was taken to counteract that. With regards to pot, this can also give an increased appetite "the munchies" and I've known some that don't smoke to use it in baking - cookies and brownies etc. Warm Hugs Alayne yahhhh ... ditto what she said ... sumbuddie who cares :) > With regards to pot, this can also give an increased appetite "the munchies" > and I've known some that don't smoke to use it in baking - cookies and [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Alayne > Hi > Since early Jan I have had little or no appetite.

What have others done? > > > pot works wonders. ingested with food though, never did a danged thing for me; digestion may play role, but it's my theory that baking waters down the potency. (unless a person inserts the potent bits into an already baked, for instance, muffin or brownie. Or uses pot oil (which I've never tried and I think is expensive - it's expensive because of the concentration and processing) in the recipe instead of the called for recipe oil. It would be interesting to try oil smeared in the nose? J socks ... try not to think like a pussy so much ... people with wasting syndrome, nausea, vomiting ... can not even take water. they upchuck water, pills, brownies, capsules ... the only way to give antiemetic medications is with a shot, patch, up the arse with a suppository or inhale it via gas. smoking pot does this ... very quickly, and as soon as the patient has had enough - they turn the drug off immediately. very accurate self medication protocol. they are dying from cancer ... and smoking is bad for them. seems you have not been down this road and have no experience to speak of is my guess. but next time you cant eat - go put some pot in your tummy. sumbuddie on da watchtower deuxing a sheesh :) > pot works wonders. ingested with food though, not smoked |
