RSO for squamous cell carcinoma?

Hi all. I was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma unknown primary stage 4 spread to lymph node in my neck last year. I was treated with standard radiation and chemotherapy. In addition it was suggested that I use medical marijuana which I've been using for over a year now. I just recently discovered an article correlating marijuana use with squamous cell carcinoma (HPV related). Anyone else using RSO?

Re: RSO for squamous cell carcinoma?

having cancer is hard, not just for the patients, family and friends suffer too, when my best friend chad was discovered brain cancer Glioblastoma I felt the world tumbling on my feet.  He refused to undergo treatment, he wanted to spend time with us. have fun like never before so that when he goes we could get just the best memories. we spent our time on karaoke nights, cosplay parties and with the majuana card he got from an online shop , he could subdue the pain. now he is gone. I am happy you guys are here.

PeterK -- I read this as a Negative point --
"Conclusions: Cannabinoids can promote progression of HPV-positive HNSCC through p38 MAPK pathway activation."
