High there all you Medical MJ users. I've read several studies on the benefits of medical marijuana... but I've also read a lot of studies on pharmaceuticals. MJ studies aren't funded by drug companies, so I choose to believe their results more often... but the things I believe most are anecdotal success stories. Stories from real people, like all of you, about your success using this wonderful herb to treat your various ailments. I myself use the herb to help with anxiety. I smoke a few bowls on the weekend and I'm good for the whole work week.
I understand that not everyone will want to volunteer this information, but it is the type of thing that good doctors listen to. The pharma. companies have no interest in legalizing this herb... it's too effective, and cannot be patented... but a good doctor will listen to your stories and realize, "Damn, maybe I should recommend this stuff." Assuming he hears it from a few patients. So, what all have you tried medically... what failed for you, and how successful has medical mj been for you?

I truly hope to hear from many of you!

Big Pharma would loose a lotta $$$. #1 Pain medication #2 Sleep medication #3 Antidepressants #4 Glaucoma ... and the list goes on and on.
The first 3, I would say the combined sales are in the billions yearly.
If you grow your own medicine, who would make a profit?

And more importantly people who smoke cannot be exploited or lied to so easily!
