Title: How Medical Marijuana Can Help Breast Cancer Patients


1
How Medical Marijuana Can help Breast Cancer
Patients
2
Breast cancer is a disease in which cells in the
breast or breasts grow out of control. There are
many different kinds of breast cancer. Every
year, about 300,000 people in the United States
are told they have breast cancer. Breast cancer
can start in different parts of the breast, and
finding it early is very important for beating it.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so we
wrote this about some of the ways medical
marijuana could help you while you're getting
treatment for breast cancer.
It's important to remember that medical marijuana
is neither a treatment for breast cancer nor a
cure for it. If you're already getting medical
treatment, you should always talk to your doctor
or healthcare provider before using medical
marijuana. But in the United States, a lot of
people use medical marijuana along with their
cancer treatment. We'll look at why below.

How Do People Use Medical Marijuana to Help them
While Getting Treatment for Breast Cancer?
When people use medical marijuana along with
traditional cancer treatments, they do so to help
deal with their breast cancer symptoms, the side
effects of their cancer treatments, and other
problems they may face because of their
cancer. Some of the most common reasons why
people with cancer use medical marijuana are
01
03
02
To help with pain, stiffness, headaches, and
aches in the joints and muscles.
To help people who have trouble sleeping get a
healthy amount of sleep.
To help deal with stress and worry, which can
lead to anxiety, a serious mental health
condition that affects up to 40 million Americans
each year.
04
To help with the common side effects of
chemotherapy, like feeling sick, throwing up, and
losing your appetite.

Surveys show that up to 40 of people with breast
cancer use medical marijuana to help with the
side effects of their treatment or their breast
cancer symptoms. Also, 75 percent of people who
used medical marijuana as part of their treatment
for breast cancer said that it helped. One of the
most common ways to treat breast cancer is with
chemotherapy. Unfortunately, chemotherapy can be
both physically and mentally draining on your
health. Many breast cancer patients who are
trying to keep their lives as normal as possible
put dealing with the side effects of chemotherapy
at the top of their list of priorities. Many
people find the decision to use medical marijuana
to be scary, but with the right advice, the whole
process can be done in a fairly easy way. Medical
marijuana has come a long way in the last ten
years, and there are now many different products
and ways to get it.

Set up your Risk-Free Medical Marijuana
Evaluation Today.
Before we can say for sure that medical marijuana
is helping breast cancer patients, we need to do
more clinical trials. Still, things look good for
the future. If you're tired of having to deal
with the bad side effects of breast cancer
treatments, medical marijuana might be just what
you're looking for. If you have a qualifying
condition and want to get your Medical Marijuana
Card in Iowa, we recommend scheduling an
evaluation with one of our caring board-certified
Medical Marijuana Doctors in Emmetsburg. There is
no risk to you at all.
