Title: Cannabis Oil Stops Life-Threatening Seizures in Girl, 12, with Rare Form of Epilepsy

A 12-year-old girl with a rare form of epilepsy has stopped suffering from life-threatening seizures after doctors treated her with cannabis oil.

Annalise Lujan, from Tucson in the US state of Arizona, was participating in a gymnastics competition on 2 April when she was suddenly unable to walk, according to her mother Maryann Lujan.

The next morning, she was struck with seizures and rushed to intensive care where she was hooked onto a ventilator and put into a medical coma, KVOA reported.

Doctors at Phoenix Chidren’s Hospital have since diagnosed the young girl with a form of epilsepy known as Febrile Infection-Related Epilepsy Syndrome (Fires). The disease affects only one in one million children.

The condition generally strikes children of school age, who suddenly suffer up to hundreds of seizures a day within a fortnight of contracting a mild febrile illness, like a cough or cold, according to the US charity RareDiseases.org.

Experts believe the little-understood condition is caused by inflammation in the body or a autoimmune disorders.

In a first for Phoenix Children's Hospital, medics sought permission from the US Food and Drug Administration and the Drug Enforcement Administration to treat Lujan with the marijuana derivative cannabidiol (CBD).

After 48-hours, Lujan’s seizures stopped and she woke up.

CBD is an active ingredient in cannabis, but does not cause a person to become high. In a study by experts at New York University and Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital in London, cannabidiol was found to halve seizures in adults and children suffering with epilepsy.

“She was afraid. She cried. And, I whispered to her that she was very strong, she's beautiful, and she's strong, and she needed to keep breathing, and she did,” Maryann told KVOA...more

In a first for Phoenix Children's Hospital, medics sought permission from the US Food and Drug Administration and the Drug Enforcement Administration to treat Lujan with the marijuana derivative cannabidiol (CBD).

According to Arizona Medical Marijuana Clinics, these are the list of qualifying medical conditions.

Ailments

(Per the Arizona Medical Marijuana State Statutes)

Patients with a wide variety of conditions may quality for a medical marijuana evaluation. If a patient has been diagnosed with and is currently undergoing treatment for the following debilitating medical conditions they may qualify for certification:

  • Cancer
  • PTSD
  • Glaucoma
  • Positive status for human immunodeficiency virus
  • Acquired immune deficiency syndrome
  • Hepatitis C
  • Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
  • Crohn’s disease
  • Agitation of Alzheimer’s disease

A chronic or debilitating disease or medical condition that produces any of the following:

  • Cachexia or wasting syndrome
  • Severe and chronic pain
  • Severe nausea
  • Seizures (including those characteristic of epilepsy) or
  • Severe and persistent muscle spasms (including those characteristic of multiple sclerosis)

So I don't understand why they had to apply to either FDA or DEA for permission. The girl would seem to qualify outright unless the hospital is pursuing a political agenda for treating juveniles with marijuana products.

Well, what you posted states "they may qualify for certification" which implies an application of some sort would be required.

Maybe the hospital is just dotting i's and crossing t's. Surely any controversy that could end up in court would have testimony by multiple doctors on staff and video to show the patient's dire situation.

It may also be there are fine points about the AZ med-marijuana law that is different when applied to juveniles than it is for adults.
