I recently tried smoking a little of that stuff i just had part of my foot amputated and was hurtin so bad i would have tried anything and was out of pain pills.
The first one may have helped a little, after that it never helped and it leaves me with a feeling of hopelessness, stinks worse than pig manure.
I am not a drinker but give me a bottle of wiskey anytime as it really does make me feel better.
I had a long time friend that completely changed my mind about possible medicinal uses, right after Arizona legalized for that reason, until then, I was sure it was nothing more than a natural recreational drug, albeit safer than any other. He was the most rabid anti pot person I had ever met, he found out somebody smoked pot, he would not associate with them in any way, his kids could not be around them ever, etc... they were scum of the earth in his book, no better than a junkie on heroin... Flash forward 15 years and he is going through numerous surgery’s on knees, ankles etc. First one leg then the other, he is on pain management and had been awhile, heavy doses of oxycodone (synthetic heroin)... all day long, he could not even function and was about to lose a job he had worked his way up to for many years.
PLEASE, Look at states that have legalized Marijuana and notice their heroin overdose rates have ALL gone down.... In case you all don’t realize it, our country has a HUGE Heroin problem, especially small town America instead of the usual source that used to be the inner cities! Its the new war with drugs... we all know where the poppies grow and its not in the U.S. This shit is ISIS and Al Queda’s new weapon against the U.S. Cheap Heroin and with Obama’s open borders these smaller packages (than the huge weed bundles) flow across like water!
Anyway Arizona talks about legalizing and his Doctor mentions it too him and he was flat out no way... Then a couple weeks later, something happens with his prescription and it wont be refilled until after the weekend, his wife talks him into a pot brownie her girlfriend gave her. Monday rolls around and he calls his doctor and said sign me up... He was one of the first 100 original recipients of a medical card in Arizona... 4 years later he has not had a pain pill or patch in 4 years, he kept his job, had no problems functioning daily what so ever, would come home from work at night and eat a couple cookies and be good for the evening.
This all the while knowing, if they so desired, the Feds could come lock him up for doing what our state law says is legal.
