Is anyone using FECO as a treatment?
Has anyone heard of or is using FECO (full extract cannabis oil) for COPD? I've been reading about it.
There are many forms of FECO that do not require inhaling or vaping. However, in PA I do not believe COPD is one of the qualifying conditions.
Hi hdkrane and thanks for your post. Would you mind clarifying your question? What particular 'forms' of FECO are you speaking about? Also, when you address COPD as not being a 'qualifying' condition, qualified by what?, by whom? Perhaps others in the community have a better understanding of your question.
Thanks,

Hi Cousincas and thanks for letting us know this works for you. We appreciate your comment. Leon (site moderator)
Ok, I just began the FECO treatment. I live in Colorado, am 68 years and was first diagnosed with COPD in 2009. Unfortunately COPD is not currently listed as a qualifying ailment to qualify to obtain a Medical Marijuana Registery Card. Lucky for me (I guess), I also have prior medical conditions (Scoliosis being one of them), resulting in continuing pain and pinched nerves in my neck and lower back areas and at times in my legs. This condition allowed me to obtain my card and purchase the required strength and quantity of medicine to possibly assist with my current COPD as well. As they suggest at least 2 months of treatment, I am anxiously awaiting the results.
HI CloudDancer - Thank you for giving us that information. I'll be very interested to hear if you feel it works. Please keep us posted!
