One Green Country man said using cannabis oil has dramatically improved chronic medical conditions hes faced for years. Jeff from Checotah said six months ago, theres no way he could enjoy a walk at the park. COPD, a lung disease that blocks airflow and makes it difficult to breathe, wouldnt allow it; but he can now enjoy his walks, and he credits the use of cannabis oil from marijuana plants. Doctors werent curing me,” he said. For six months, hes taken a drop of the oil each morning and night. 8/13/2014 Related Story: Oklahoma Governor Announces Support For Medicinal Marijuana Oil Usage He only wants to go by his first name, since what hes doing is illegal, but Jeff said hes had a remarkable turnaround. I wasnt getting better, I was getting worse. I was tired of it,” Jeff said. He said he never really thought hed use cannabis, but was open to the idea, especially after getting pneumonia and spending 28 days in the hospital. I started researching alternative methods to heal and I came across cannabis oil and I thought ‘its worth a shot and its changed my life,” Jeff said. Jeff said hes now off all his medications, his blood pressure is fine, the cannabis oil prevents his anxiety and depression and his COPD is under control. No inhalers; no oxygen. Im walking three to five miles a day,” he said. Jeff said he doesnt actually buy cannabis oil; he gets donations of it from people in other states where cannabis oil is legal. While experts debate the possibilities of addiction, impairment and short-term memory damage, Jeff said one downside is that its hard to find work because he wouldnt be able to pass a drug test; but he said its worth it. Without it I would be back on all my medications. Id be sick,” he said. Jeff said if Oklahoma doesnt legalize medicinal marijuana or cannabis oil, hell likely move to a state where its legal because of his health.
