Research article on Use of Caanboids (worth the long read) re Marijauna based pain control without Opiods.

I know all that. My wife has two prescriptions (from her primary physician, a real doctor:
For arthritis:
Celebrex, Pot.
The doctor told her to only take the Celebrex if she’s having a really bad day and pot isn’t getting the job done. The doctor says the Celebrex is much worse for her than the pot, and she’d rather have the wife smoking pot than taking Celebrex.
I don’t care about comparing the two myself. Opioid use needs to stand on it’s own as a good idea or a bad one. I know a lady who was recovering from cancer and was put on opioids. She said she went through hell for 6 months getting off them.
