More good news about cannabis. People suffering from intense vertigo and nausea due to an inner ear problem — a condition of unknown cause and limited susceptibility to conventional medical treatment called Ménière’s disease — find significant improvement from cannabis, according to California doctors.

California doctors routinely approve the use of cannabis by Meniere’s patients who say that it helps ease their symptoms. “Meniere’s causes dizziness, dizziness causes nausea, cannabis relieves nausea,” says David Bearman, MD. “I wouldn’t be surprised if the symptoms caused Mrs. Gee to be a little depressed and of course cannabis helps that, too .”Robert Sullivan, MD, corroborates: “I’ve issued many recommendations for Meneire’s, as well as tinnitus [ringing in the ears]. It works well enough to make a significant improvement in patients’ lives, i.e., symptoms not gone but much abated so they can function and carry on their daily activities, instead of sitting and suffering. It also aids sleep.”

Had to go to the hospital for it earlier, because I was feeling very dizzy and I knew my ear had given me problems in the past. Basically, the doctor found out that my left tympanic membrane was red, bleeding a bit, and had bubbles. It was because of a rare condition wherein mucus infects the ear through the Eustachian tube. In other words, colds went up the ear instead of out the nose.

I'm also banned from driving and going to the gym for now.

"Rave": The condition isn't bad enough that I have to cancel Rick's planned cooking thing on Sat.
