Or in constant pain. My friend asks the question. Would you rather me take 30mg Oxycontin X3 or a bowl now or then?

If the pain is constant, you’re going to need more than a bowl “now and then”. You’re going to need it constantly.

Also, marijuana causes anxiety and paranoia. The last thing a seriously ill patient needs is an ineffective pain killer that gives him a heightened sense of dread and his own mortality that wipes out any mild euphoric effect the drug might have had otherwise.

If I’m in pain, I’ll take hydrocodone or oxycodone over weed every single time. It’s not even a contest.

If it takes 30 mg of oxy x3 a day to manage pain, it’s going to take more than a bowl now or then to get the same effect.

I’ll take the pain medicine.

Should it be the Governments decision?
