I've heard this from doctors who refuse to even consider marijuana as a possible medicine purely on principle and it pisses me off to no end.

A little harsh, but absolutely true.This plant can provide relief for so many ailments, that for anyone to think there is one correct way to use it, is absurd. Each condition will require a certain approach. I also need to smoke for medicinal use, as I have problems with my gastrointestinal system. I know people also need to use concentrate or edibles. I respect any use of Cannabis, recreational or medicinal, we need to try to stay open minded.

That was harsh. I apologize. I probably could have said that more politely.

I got my card well before they were widespread and I was very young when I got it (19). I faced an incredible amount of derision, dismissal and prejudice for years because of it but couldn't stop because I truly, legitimately need it for my condition. Classic genetic migraines rarely respond well to the currently available prescription medications and the way neurologists have to treat them is literally to just play "pin the tail on the donkey" starting with the prescriptions with the fewest side effects and working their way up. Before I got my card I was taking epileptic level doses of Depakote which turned me into a zombie and made me gain 50 pounds and was still having migraines a few days a week. Never found an abortive that would touch em and I tried EVERY available class of drugs for them over a 2 year period. Imitrex injections did a little bit for them but not much and I'm phobic of needles. I'd get panic attacks when I started to feel a migraine trigger because I didn't want to get another shot.

Long story short this is a touchy subject for me but it still doesn't excuse my rudeness. Please pardon.

As long as the strains have the overall cannabinoid and terpene profiles required for the medicinal application in question, then why not also make them taste good and enjoyable to smoke! Then let the consumer decide whether to smoke, juice, make oil,etc.

I can say for sure that after anyone tastes my products, happiness rules - I'm not out to rain on parades, it's just the blindness of people to their own confusion!

The belief that governments are there for our benefit and that our actions need to be regulated is how we got into this sorry state in the first place!

Anyone who wishes to SHOULD buy through licensed, government-approved growers, yup!

I should not be forced! Nor should you!

SirStynk -

Tis I sir, who owes the apology - saying something in haste often means saying shit!

I meant simply that the full medical benefits of cannabis cannot be realized by only smoking or vaporizing; a regimen of ingesting cannabis is the only way of getting the full spectrum of benefits available.

You are presently smoking to combat migraines and it is obviously a huge relief for you - without offence, may I ask have you tried 2 or 3 months of eating, either with butter extraction, RSO or BHO? Perhaps you might - if you wish, I'd give you my email address.

My serious COPD (only 30% lung capacity) was defeated in a few months with a vaporizer AND ingesting RSO @ .66 grams daily - I beat Arthritis as well, a heart murmur (diagnosed in 1962), fatty liver, liver spots and skin melanomas. Moles and warts have been disappearing for 2 years. It's still 30 years before my 100th. birthday, but I plan to get there on my feet! Peace Light Love Truth adavida

Absolutely CORRECT!

As I said, a sound finanical plan and business approach is needed to survive in this industry I believe.
