Everybody's against it but if it works than why not do it? Marijuana as a pain reliver

[cantstopcrying]

I wouldn't say everyone is against it...it's legal in quite a few places now. I think it's a personal choice.

I'm certainly not against it --- I'm for ANYTHING that works for pain. I tried Marijuana, but unfortunately it didn't work for pain. All it did was slightly relax me -- but the severe pain was still there. I sure wish it HAD worked, cause right now I'm in so much pain I could tear my hair out! I can't even lay down, as it makes the pain worse. So looks like I'll get no sleep again.

Oh well. Good luck! Hugs, Lee

I am going to talk to my doc and pdoc about it this week. Not quite sure how to bring it up but since I already smoke pot (and did not tell them), I know it helps with my bipolar rages and insomnia problems. It doesn't do much for my pain (OA and Fibro) but it does help one's frame of mind so you don't focus so much on it. I hope they okay it - it's legal here

I'm just waiting for New York to pass the bill.....

I'm all for it, I have used in the past and it has helped me tremously. It makes me take less of the Morphine, Xanax, and even has helped me in the past come off of Lyrica for nerve pain. The side effects of that isn't black lung but yet compared to all the stuff in those pills I take daily is hurting more then pot would according to my doctors. They are waiting for it to pass, New York is pending.

Hey avoice thanks for asking that cause I have been wondering if anyone else had any success with it.

Thanks, again ((((avoice))))) for bringing it up.

The problem is that some pot is stronger then other pot yet government weed is the strongest. (I hear )
