Medical marijuana - what is your opinion?

Question

Medical marijuana - what is your opinion?

I think it should be medically legal everywhere. Maine, Vermont and Rhode Island are the only New England states that allow MM to chronic pain sufferers. (I am in MA and have severe chronic pain. Meds don't help.) Would you move a minimum of 75 miles to go to the state with medical marijuana if you needed it? I am thinking of moving to Maine from Massachusetts.

I've done all sorts of nerve blocks and other injects. I don't drive because of the accident I was in.

Answer 1

that would probably be a good move. Those hardcore pain killers can really take away from your life. your health should always be your #1 priority. if you dont want to move, you could always petition to legalize it in your state.

Answer 2

For certain ailments ..yes....it has proven effective in relieving pain in aids patients and help those with eating disorders.
I believe the drug companies are reluctant to agree with some of the findings because it can be cultivated by anyone and exclusivity of a patent would cut into their profits.
Even though states have had tremendous passage of the medical side of marijuana...the feds still are enforcing the laws....of course the local law enforcement are obliged to help...but with any drug...legal or not there are those that exploit it and make the rest suffer with restrictions...ie...simple cold medicines with ephedrine and the like ingredients.

Answer 3

I completely agree with it if nothing else works. Montel Williams (the talk show host) has some wonderful info on this. I would think of moving if I really needed it.

Oh and yes there is medical proof that it does help (This is for those non believers). Do the research yourself before you throw out half as*ed answers. There are also licensed growers who grow it 100% pure without the "bad" stuff in it.

Answer 4

Fine. But you'd better surrender your driving license, because you have no business driving while stoned.

I believe that there are often things that could help chronic pain sufferers (such as nerve blocks, radiofrequency ablation, etc.) but they are not tried.

Have fun in Maine. I'd need to be stoned too if I had to survivie a winter there.

Answer 5

i like to tell the reality! It does effect the ideas and damages it, the only element is someone could might desire to smoke ludicrous quantities of marijuana on a regular basis for an exceedingly long term earlier sizeable consequences take place it does effect human beings diverse as does sugar, milk, alcohol, espresso, nutrients, and maximum each thing. haha to think of that 2 joints two times each week could make you pay attention voices that opt for you to kill your self and reason paranoia is approximately as dumb as atheists and christians arguing over introduction (we can all locate out sooner or later so the hating is pointless every person dies sometime.) and it does have scientific advantages, alongside with produce, hemp may well be used for paper, and it lasts longer than paper from timber. numerous different element (i will go away source examine it out 60 issues atleast beginning from countless issues like nutrients to business products) please instruct your self earlier you communicate undesirable approximately some thing you don't understand (that is only like little ones cracking mom jokes they don't continuously additionally understand the others mom)

Answer 6

This is a hotly contested topic. There is no evidence that MM helps anyone with pain and nausea or anything else. It should not be made legal anywhere because of this.

Answer 7

unfortunately MM will probably never be legal, there are too many people that haven't done the research on it that make the decisions regarding legalizing it or not.

Answer 8

I mean like....Er Yeah..... They should like..... give it out at the doctors man.... that'd be like.....cool. I'm like.... Gonna move to Main too. (Did I say that out loud ?)

Answer 9

I think that in that case it should be legal.

Answer 10

if one really need it and was in pain then yes.
