My Recent Interview on Cannabis Health Radio: How I Beat Glaucoma & Migraines with RSO!

This is my 2nd interview on Cannabis Health Radio. The first one was way back in 2016 when I was still figuring out how to save my eyesight with Full Extract Cannabis Oils.

My Journey from Blindness to Vision: How RSO Saved My Eyesight

When Doctors Said There Was Nothing They Could Do

In 6th grade I was told by my optometrist that I had the markers for Glaucoma and would eventually go blind one day because there is no cure.

At 30 years old, I was diagnosed with active glaucoma.

The doctors told me what they tell everyone with glaucoma: "You'll go blind one day." They offered drops, surgeries, even injections directly into the eyes.

I refused it all.

Why? Because I watched my father go through every conventional treatment for glaucoma - medications, surgeries, needles in his eyes - and he still went blind. And... They still wanted to do more procedures even after he lost his vision.

As a holistic health practitioner since 1987, I knew there had to be a natural solution. I just had to find it.

However, in my early 40s, my vision was deteriorating rapidly.

Discovering Rick Simpson Oil (RSO)

By my late 40s, I was losing my eyesight rapidly. I had tried everything in my holistic health toolkit, but nothing was working. It was like some cruel joke - I could help thousands of others overcome their conditions, but I couldn't help myself.

Then I discovered Rick Simpson Oil - also known as Full Extract Cannabis Oil (FECO) or RSO oil. I had seen it used successfully for cancer and other serious conditions, and I remembered that back in 1977, the first person to receive federal approval for medical cannabis was a glaucoma patient.

I thought: "If this cannabis oil helps people with cancer, maybe it can help me."

That decision changed everything.

The First Sign: Freedom from Migraines

I had suffered from hardcore migraines my entire life - at least a headache every single day, often escalating into full migraines. This came with my type of glaucoma (the painful kind, not the "silent thief" version).

The first morning after taking RSO, I woke up without a headache.

I remember thinking, "Wait... my head's not in pain. My neck's not in pain." The only thing different was the Rick Simpson oil.

Even if it didn't help my eyesight, being free from daily migraines was enough reason to continue. So I stayed patient, persistent, and consistent with my efforts.

Becoming "Patient Zero"

Here's what makes my situation unique in the RSO world: If I stop taking my cannabis oil for even one week, I go completely blind.

This isn't theoretical. This is my daily reality.

My bridge mark (the visual field marker for glaucoma) starts to fracture and break apart within 24 to 48 hours if I don't take my FECO. Within a week, I'm blind.

This makes me "Patient Zero" for my company. Every single batch of RSO oil I produce gets tested on me first. If the quality isn't perfect, I'll start going blind immediately. There's no room for error, no cutting corners, no "good enough."

My eyesight depends on the quality of every batch.

This is why people trust my Rick Simpson oil - because their health depends on the same quality that my vision depends on.

The 17-Year Journey to Perfect RSO

It took me approximately 17 years to figure out the complete solution. About 3 to 5 years of that was perfecting the exact extraction process and formulation.

I worked with other extractors, tested different solvents, tried various methods. I discovered something critical: not all RSO is created equal.

The amber-colored "honey oil" that many people make? That doesn't work for me. When the oil is processed to that point, certain components are removed - and I'll go blind from it. It takes a little longer than stopping completely, but I still lose my vision.

For true therapeutic benefit, it has to be raw, full-spectrum cannabis oil - the darker oil that contains chlorophyll, terpenes, flavonoids, isoflavones, and all the cannabinoids. Not just THC and CBD, but the complete plant profile.

That's real Full Extract Cannabis Oil.

The Breakthrough: CBD-Dominant Daytime RSO

One of my proudest innovations is creating the world's only CBD-dominant RSO that doesn't get you high but still provides full therapeutic benefits.

This isn't just extracting a high-CBD plant using RSO methods. It's much more specific than that.

The oil must contain five different cannabinoids at specific natural thresholds:

• THC

• CBD

• CBC

• CBG

• CBN

These must occur naturally in the plant and maintain specific ratios in the final oil. If we test a batch and it doesn't meet these thresholds, we sell it to another company and wait for the right batch.

Why? Because if it doesn't have all five cannabinoids at the right levels, I'll go blind.

As far as I know, I'm the only person in the world producing this specialized medical cannabis oil.

This innovation allows people to take RSO throughout the day without getting high (using the CBD-dominant version) and take the high-THC version at night. Best of both worlds.

It allows me to work during the day while still protecting my eyesight.

From Blind to Driving: Restoring Vision with Cannabis Oil

I went completely blind in my right eye. My left eye was failing. I was losing everything.

Through consistent use of properly made Rick Simpson oil and eventually learning to "macro dose" when I had abundant supply, I was able to stop the progression and then actually reverse the damage.

Today, I see better than I did ten years ago during my first Cannabis Health Radio interview.

Two years ago, I moved from California to Arizona. I took my driving test and passed.

Let that sink in: I went from blind to legally driving.

That's the power of real, properly made Full Extract Cannabis Oil.

The Quality Crisis in RSO

Here's something people need to know: 95% of the RSO on the market is garbage.

I'm not exaggerating. The quality control simply isn't there. Many producers don't understand the importance of:

• Soil-to-oil quality (beyond organic, biodynamic farming)

• Proper solvent selection (we use 200-proof, 100% organic ethanol)

• Full-spectrum extraction (keeping all plant compounds intact)

• Lab testing and verification

• Consistent protocols

I've had at least a dozen people come to me after buying from ricksimpsonoil.com (which is NOT a legitimate Rick Simpson website - he doesn't sell to anyone). They either had no results or bad side effects.

Rick Simpson himself has stated he does not sell RSO to anyone. That website is fake, and the COAs (Certificates of Analysis) are fabricated.

When your health is on the line, quality matters.

Real Success Stories: RSO for Cancer and Chronic Conditions

Patty's Pancreatic Cancer Miracle

One of the most powerful success stories involves a woman named Patty who had pancreatic cancer - one of the most aggressive and deadly forms of cancer.

She was sent home with two months to live. No more chemo, no more treatment options. Just "get your affairs in order."

She came to one of my public speaking events at a CrossFit gym. She had the scarf on from losing her hair to chemo, could barely walk, needed someone to support her. But she was smiling.

She said, "I found your YouTube channel. I watched all your Glaucoma Hope videos. I know you can help me."

I told her I'd do my best.

Eight months later, she went to her doctor with her daughter. The doctor looked at her and said, "Who are you?"

She said, "I'm Patty."

He responded, "I thought you were dead."

He was shocked at how good she looked. He started testing her again, put her back on chemo (which we didn't necessarily want, but we support people's choices), and a year later, her previously inoperable cancer was operable. They did the surgery successfully.

Last year, I got an email from the friend who brought Patty to that event. She wrote:

"Not only did she have success and get her life back, but I'm able to go out with her, have lunch with her, have dinner with her, enjoy movies with her. You gave me my friend back."

That made me cry. That's why I do this work.

The Cuban Man Who Regained His Sight

A man from Cuba, living outside New York City, had been completely blind for two years. Not shadows, not light perception - completely blind.

He didn't speak English, didn't know what CBD or THC was. His son found my Glaucoma Hope videos and said, "I think you can help my dad."

His father was also on heart medication, blood pressure medication, and dealing with chronic pain.

Within weeks of starting RSO, his pain went away. He felt so good that he told his son he wanted to stop his other medications because "the new medication is working better."

His doctor was eventually able to take him off heart and blood pressure medications.

Seven to eight months after starting cannabis oil, they were driving into New York City for his sister's birthday party. His dad suddenly asked, "Are we going into the city?"

His son said, "Yeah, why do you ask?"

"Because I can see the lights."

Six months after that, I got another text message: "My dad is going to the eye doctor to get glasses."

He went from completely blind for two years to seeing his grandchildren, his son, his family again.

Beyond Cancer and Glaucoma: The Full Spectrum of Benefits

Through working with thousands of people over the years, I've seen Rick Simpson oil help with:

• Cancer (various types, including pancreatic, breast, lung, colon)

• Glaucoma (stopping progression and restoring vision)

• Chronic pain (including injuries from my powerlifting days)

• Migraines and headaches (daily relief)

• Anxiety and depression

• Stress and panic attacks

• Sleep disorders

• Lupus and other autoimmune conditions

• Heart conditions (reducing need for medications)

• High blood pressure

The Unintended Benefits: Confidence and Inner Peace

One of the most profound benefits of RSO that people don't talk about enough is the emotional and psychological transformation.

Medical cannabis oil helps you feel good inside your own skin. It provides an inner confidence - not arrogance, but a centered feeling where you can make decisions without second-guessing yourself.

When you have a chronic illness - whether it's cancer, lupus, glaucoma, or anything else - depression is a huge part of the experience. People don't realize how much the mental burden weighs on you.

Full Extract Cannabis Oil helps greatly with that burden.

I used to be high-stress, quick to anger, with very little patience. Before I found cannabis at age 21, I would listen to Pink Floyd albums trying to relax. But cannabis gave me an immediate calmness, like a missing link in my life.

It's been part of me since 1987, and I didn't even realize it was also the thing that would save my eyesight decades later.

RSO Protocols: It's Not Just About Having the Oil

Here's something critical that many people miss: Having good RSO isn't enough. You need the right protocols.

I've developed specific protocols for different conditions based on thousands of case studies. These aren't rigid rules - they're ranges of what people have had success with.

The Three Keys to Success with Rick Simpson Oil:

1. Be Patient - Some conditions respond quickly (pain, anxiety, sleep), while others take months (glaucoma, lupus, systemic conditions)

2. Be Persistent - Don't skip days, don't skip doses. Consistency is everything.

3. Be Consistent - Give it a fair shot - at least 3 to 6 months for serious conditions.

Understanding Immediate vs. Cumulative Effects

Immediate effects (within days to weeks):

• Pain relief

• Better sleep

• Reduced anxiety

• Improved mood

• Migraine relief

Cumulative effects (weeks to months):

• Vision improvement for glaucoma

• Cancer tumor reduction

• Systemic healing

• Medication reduction

• Long-term health restoration

The Glaucoma Protocol

For glaucoma specifically, the first goal is to stop the progression. Then you work on improvement.

The big fog, haze, and cloudiness that comes with glaucoma? People break through that with consistent RSO use. The starbursts, the need for welding-style sunglasses, the shadows - these improve over time.

I was able to stop my glaucoma progression initially, but when I learned to macro-dose with abundant supply, I actually restored my vision.

The Trifecta of Health

For optimal results, I recommend what I call the Trifecta of Health:

1. RSO/FECO (Full Extract Cannabis Oil)

2. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)

3. Shilajit (Ancient mineral compound)

This combination provides comprehensive support for the body's healing systems.

The Truth About Cannabis: 5,000 Years of Medicine

For people who are skeptical about medical cannabis, I always recommend researching the history.

Cannabis has been used for healing purposes for 3,000 to 5,000 years BC - not just for rope or industrial purposes, but actual medicine.

Before the American Medical Association was established, cannabis was the most prescribed substance in the world. It was in Ayurveda, homeopathy, and modern medicine up until the 1930s.

Then it was suppressed. Deliberately. For over 100 years.

We're now rediscovering what our ancestors knew: Cannabis is a missing link to health in our toxic modern world.

The Endocannabinoid System: Why RSO Works

Your body has an endocannabinoid system that needs cannabinoids to function properly.

Think of it like vitamin C deficiency causing scurvy. Cannabinoid deficiency causes disease.

Most chronic illness is actually cannabinoid deficiency. When you provide your body with full-spectrum cannabis oil containing all the cannabinoids, terpenes, and plant compounds, you're giving your endocannabinoid system what it needs to heal.

This isn't "alternative medicine" - this is addressing a fundamental nutritional deficiency that modern life has created.

Why I Can't Leave This Work

People literally ask me, "What's going to happen to me if you die?"

They depend on my RSO because they know it has to be good - I'll go blind if it's not.

I've written books on holistic health, organic and biodynamic farming. I eat the way I teach. The oil is made the same way - beyond organic, biodynamic, 200-proof organic ethanol, done in a proper lab.

This isn't just a business. This is my life, my vision, and the health of thousands of people who trust me.

I can't leave this work. And I won't.

Final Thoughts: Health Freedom is Personal Freedom

As I mentioned in the interview, sick people are controllable people. Healthy people are free.

You have the right to choose your healing path. You have the right to medical sovereignty and health freedom.

Rick Simpson Oil - Full Extract Cannabis Oil - has been suppressed for over a century. We're rediscovering the forbidden elixir of hope that was hidden from us.

Don't let anyone tell you there's nothing that can be done. Don't accept blindness, chronic pain, or a death sentence without exploring every option.

I was told I'd go blind. Today I'm driving, working, and helping thousands of others reclaim their health.
