Medical marijuana remission

Have been doing research for MMj to help a close relative with crohns. It is now legal in California, but can't seem to get enough info on dose and varieties. Has been taking 4 to 1 ratio and has worked better than anything else tried but some days doesn't seem to help

It is great of you to do research on the behalf of a family member. I know anyone of us would appreciate that kind of help from our families.
If you wouldn't mind, can you tell us more about your family member, I know you might not know a lot about what is going on with them. But we might have other suggestions as well as suggestions about MM.
 
Hello Cagirl!
I am the grandpa of a 15 yr old UC patient. He is in his second flare and this time we tried MM with a good results. He had been in a remissive state for a year then his mother found his stash. They got rid of the stuff. We had no knowledge of the effectiveness of MM with UC. In the beginning of this flare I started researching and found it could be effective. Thanksgiving Day my daughter-in-law was about to lose her mind with worry as my Buddy was getting worse and didn't want to go back to the hospital. He had been out just a week and a half after a two week stay. Being in a MM state I had been a patient for an industrial accident which left me with nerve pain in my neck. I laid my cards on the table with her, as no one knew, and told her I had some smoke and we should give it a try. It quieted his belly, took away the pain, and he rested pretty well that nite. We got him his MM card and he's been having some every day. Tahoe OG is a very strong strain and will help. A thimble full will do the trick in a small pipe. I got him a vaporizer and he uses it twice a day. I hope this works for you. He is taking LIALDA too. I believe the MM has kept him home. Stress is a big trigger for him and the hospital is the pits for that!
