Cooper, what CBD do you take for the inflammation?cooperhawk wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 5:54 pmMaybe I've mentioned this before, (old age sneaks up on you), but when they made CBDs legal in Minnesota some friends started telling
me how much they helped with arthritis, so I gave them a try. They did give me a lot of relief with my hands and knees but one side effect
I hadn't expected was my vision got better. It has gotten so good in fact that I'm sitting here typing without glasses and often I start driving
to town and realize I don't have them on but my drivers license still requires them.
All they are is an anti inflammatory. You do not feel any other effect from them. No euphoria or anything like that.
Just saying..................
I've had both eyes done but this also helped.
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
I take Mainstream CBD in both the edible gummies and tincture.
I place one drop of tincture under my tongue in the morning and chew one gummy
in the afternoon.
The bottle and container both say 1250 mg, Full Spectrum.
The only effects I feel are my knees don't hurt and my eyes clear up.
I send my drug dealer, (my wife actually) to the store to buy them.
They're legal here.

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
It’s legal here too. I have no need for it but think it should be available for those that do need it. My wife used it when she had cancer and it helped her with appetite.cooperhawk wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2024 10:36 amI take Mainstream CBD in both the edible gummies and tincture.

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
The results from my kidney biopsy is back and it’s positive for cancer. My lungs are okay but they found a spot on my liver. Next step is to go back to Madison to have more tests on the liver and discuss treatment.
I was in one of the heaviest sprayed areas of Vietnam. A very high percentage of the guys that I served with have passed away from cancers.
Agent Orange has taken a decade off my life but they were work years not retirement. I retired 20 years and 2 months ago at the age of 54.
At least I can see better.

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
I received the bills for my eye surgeries. Each eye had three bills. The doctor charged $7,629 for each eye and the VA paid $504.84. The hospital charged $4,900 and the VA paid $1,300.78. And finally the lens was $163 and the VA paid $28.44. So the total per eye was $12,692 with $1,634.06 paid. To think it cost more than $25,000 for both is mind blowing.
By contract the Eye Clinic of Wisconsin is forbidden to collect the difference from the veteran. Sometimes it’s difficult to get private care because many providers will not accept VA patients because they pay so little. Same is true with Medicare.

My eye care is the same. The amount they bill versus the amount Medicare pays is substantial, and then my co-pay is almost nothing. Otherwise I would not be affording the services I get.

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
Those amounts are staggering. When St. Lukes here in central Fl. did mine , they sent me back my co-pay both times so it ended up costing me just a few bucks for the eye drops to use afterwards.

Re: Stage 2 Kidney Cancer and Cataracts
It was the same with me. They charge an exorbitant amount and then settle for a lot less. I also paid for the eye drops.
The eye clinic that did mine had a conveyer belt of old folks getting them done. It looked like they did one about every
half hour. I guess if you do volume you can make money at it.
