歹夫好可央 Dr. KIANG 醫師挺大麻
這位是一個有FND(functional neurological disorder) 的病人，可以翻譯成功能性神經症候群，症狀從四肢無力無法控制，到癲癇，慢性疼痛都有可能，所以才叫症候群。
這些病人很可憐，因為做腦波或核磁共振MRI，很常都沒有異常的結果，所以過去也常被當作是精神病患來治療。但如今科學稍微開始發現這些病人在在生理機轉上，仍然有相似之處，但確切的病因還是無解。
片中講話的是病人的太太，可以看到病人在使用大麻後，症狀快速的緩解，除了肺部對藥物的吸收速度是最快的以外（跟打針不相上下），另外就是大麻的神奇療效了。國外還有許多影片是針對頑固性小兒癲癇，使用CBD的滴劑後的快速改善，也是令人振奮。
但欣慰的同時，反觀台灣的現況，無力感和憤怒也油然而生，究竟還要多久，才能讓大眾認識到大麻是藥而不是毒；究竟還要多久，在上位的決策和掌權者，才能體會一下這些需要大麻的病人的痛苦。
現在開始在診所工作，有時候一個診看了個三四十個病人，絕大多數都是自己會好的感冒。但診所外，有多少慢性疼痛或是有機會因為大麻而有症狀改善的病人，正等著法律的改變。
唉...我也想正向積極一點，但現實總是令人難過和無力，也許音樂創作是另一個可以努力的途徑？
If someone says 'Cannabis Isn't Medicine' show them this video! Right before your eyes you can see how quickly just a few puffs help this man cope with a debilitating health condition.
Diagnosed a year ago with a relatively publicly unknown condition called FND (functional neurological/movement disorder) and now a further diagnosis of Dystonia. Before the diagnosis, he was a fit, active and healthy lover of the outdoors; a hard-working family man with three adult children.
He spent 5-7 days on 3 separate occasions in the hospital with the staff trying to calm the body and the rate of seizures, which were sometimes 15 violent body thrashing seizures a day! Normal meds didn't agree with him and after a few weeks he had to stop taking them due to side-effects. He found himself spiraling into a dark place, feeling suicidal and even disappearing, which once resulted in the police having to be called
The couple were aware of the benefits of cannabis, having smoked it on occasion in the past, but struggled with the legal ethics. For several months he had no form of relief, which put the body through immense pain and uncontrollable sweats and movements. They eventually saw no choice and started with a mild strain to see what effects it would have - and you can see it for yourself.
The couple left us with these words. "It is not a cure and should not be viewed as such but the benefits for pain relief are clear to see plus helping relieve nausea, and allows more cognitive function and dramatically reduces seizures and body movements." [Twitter: @OHippys]
