Medical Marijuana

[Joealt]

I think that marijuana should be considered as a treatment for PD.

Marijuana is the only medication that actually works for me. Instead of feeling doomed I start thinking: "I can live with this". Too bad there is so much negative propaganda associated with pot. It's a miracle treatment.

I'm just saying...

I agree. It relieves stress which brings on the tremors.

I've had mixed reactions to smoking pot. One time my symptoms vanished, the other time it intensified them. So I'm not sure. Even way back in my hippie days, it wasn't always the groovy experience it was supposed to be, so maybe it's just me. But I do see how it could relieve symptoms.

[compucure]

Yes I would most definitely agree with you.

[ekw513]

I also agree, it sure would make life a hell of alot better.

[Norma55]

I'm all for it!!

[browderkidd1]

it relieves my pain from the rigidnous of my left side...and it helps me mentally! but in indiana it is illegal...so i guess it's not an option!

[Markus]

Yes,I'm sure it would relax me,ease my pain,and help me eat - oh well - Illegal still in NJ.-

[Joealt in reply to Markus]

It appears to be more profitable for the Government to keep it illegal. Think of how much money we'd have to run our healthcare and educational system if it wasn't being given to the DEA etc. I guess using medical marijuana to treat what ailes us isn't as important as our Right to Bear Arms.

Agree whole heartedly about marijuana's positive effects--for me. Also agree with your statement about the politics of it and how messed up that is.
