Almost half of US adults with breast cancer use cannabis to manage their symptoms and side effects according to an anonymous online poll — but most don’t tell their doctor.
Published by Wiley in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society, researchers examined cannabis use among adults diagnosed with breast cancer within five years who were members of the Breastcancer.org and Healthline.com online health communities.
They found 42% of the 612 participants reported using cannabis for relief of symptoms including pain, insomnia, anxiety, stress, and nausea/vomiting.
