Why do you prefer medicinal marijuana to pain killers?
Many people have very different reasons for smoking joint. Mine is for recreational and medicinal reasons. What is/are yours?

Why cannabis?
Ability to Reduce/Eliminate pain, while retaining functionality Huge number of beneficial side effects Tastes and smells fantastic No liver/kidney/immune-system damage No addiction ... Why not cannabis? |

Same with medication for PTSD, the only ones that stop the nightmares also turn me into a zombie and only work for a month or two so have to be cycled, like the Tramadol, load of shit. The weed relieves the pains a bit without nausea or liver damage and I don't dream AT ALL

Opiates felt like a merry go round from hell.
Cannabis felt like a gift from above.

when using it long enough tramadol will double tripple youre symptoms after cutting it off....
tramadol is either opiate or benzodiazipin and can fck your life completely... every patient should try cannabis first ...long before chems... i did use diclofenac for back pain , it doesnt make addiction but fcks youre stomach ..its shit.. but when you have to use it..but you wont make your body any better with chems...youre shorten youre lifetime or better youre healthy lifetime...ok no back hurt but stomach could get fckd and backpain still there..its bad deal..isnt it... .only gaining muscle,sport, ganja and possitive thinking can heal backpain..when its not to late allready...sry sht englese...

I fear the opiate epidemic is only going to get worse before it gets better in the US. And just the other day Donald Chump was putting to blame on China for illicit fentanyl. He said nothing about the Pharmaceutical Industry or Doctors being a part of the problem. Just be careful when it comes to pain meds folks. I recently lost one of my best friends to an overdose. Met him in Pre-School and were tight up until a few years ago due to his addiction. I feel guilty losing touch with him and often wonder if I could have done more to help. I spoke with his mother and she said he had 2 years of sobriety, was working as a substance abuse counselor and things were looking great. He must have slipped and ended up on life support, passing a few days later. RIP Buddy. We had so many fun and CRAZY times that won't be forgotten! |

no matter how much weed i smoke, i can still function - IE - drive a car, work at any job i have held, walk, talk (might babble a hair, lol) etc. am unable to do ANY of those while taking enough opiates to make me feel better. 'nuff said...

I forget about the pain faster with a few dabs & it's a good practical hobby that makes me excercise & eat better
