Research summary
This is an observational study of the effect of medical cannabis on the treatment of intractable chronic pain, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, multiple sclerosis and fibromyalgia. When a doctor prescribes medical cannabis for any of these conditions, we will ask the patients who are being treated to tell us if they experience any changes in their symptoms during their treatment. This information may give us evidence that medical cannabis can relieve the symptoms of these diseases.
