Should I get medical marijuana?

It depends on your view points on the law.  I feel the law is too involved in what we do and 'likes' to invade on our privacy.  I think that it also depends on if you really in fact will use it for it's purpose... pain!  I know a few people who take advantage of it being legal.  So you have to ask yourself:  am I really in enough pain?  Would you be using it for yourself?  Or with friends?  Selling it?

I definitely support medicinal marijuana use  for medicinal purposes. 100%. It is an amazing drug for people that need it, and should be made more available to them.\n\nI'm sure that almost every Christian will tell you that yes, its sinful because you are getting 'high'. BUT, I don't see it as that much different than alcohol. And Many Christians drink, so all the Christians that tell you that "pot changes your state of mind..." Well so does wine...and Jesus's first miracle was turning water into wine at the wedding at Cana. I think there is a time and a place of one would decide to do it.\n\nIf your doing it to relax or your doing it once in a while drinking it in a tea, I don't see much harm in it. I think everything bad in excess.\nGod did create the herbs for our benefit.\n\n"Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so."\n(Genesis 1:30 )\n\n "Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith."(Proverbs 15:17)\n\nWhat it all comes down to, is YOU and God. If you have a question, pray about it!

Have you got any good reasons not to get proper medical care? Please, don't put your health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect your mind and body. You must consult your doctor. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)

If you could show a REAL medical use for marijuana, other than just to get high maybe you could get some support.... Jim

No, the supreme court is expected to make a decision to prevent the federal government from prosecuting people for adhering to state laws while smoking pot for medicinal purposes. Medicinal pot is legal in California, but it's still a felony, so all these doctors are getting arrested for prescribing it, and the patients are getting arreset for possesing it. That's what the ruling is about.

No.\nThis is not the place for that. Pot is not good for your health.

1.Marijuana tablets that relieve pain without giving a high \n2. Marijuana is favored by many people who have multiple sclerosis and cancer; they say cannabis kills pain and stimulates appetite without the corrosive side effects of many alternatives. \n3.The Legalise Cannabis Alliance: fightling for legallization\n\nSO YES, it is a medical hearb\n\nSource(s):\n\nhttp://www.mult-sclerosis.org/news/jan19...\nhttp://www.marijuanacannabis.com/marijua...\nhttp://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.ht...\nhttp://www.americanpothead.com/...\nhttp://www.lca-uk.org/comments.php?start...

This would be a bad idea. The colon is hypersensitive with this condition, and alcohol, even in small amounts, is inflammatory. You're better off smoking pot.

believe it or not, smoking pot has been shown to help most symptoms of M.S. It's not a cure and may not be the best treatment but it works. If smoking bothers you eating marijuanna in cookies or brownies is a good way also.

Assuming you are in a state that recognizes "medical" marijuana, I suspect you don't have a prescription for marijuana.  You may have a recommendation for marijuana, but I doubt you have a prescription - mostly because a prescription is an order from a physician to a pharmacist, ordering the pharmacist to supply you with certain drugs...and last I knew, no pharmacy in the US was carrying marijuana on its shelves.\n\nSo the court's order that you not possess drugs without a prescription, and your probation officer's direction that you cannot smoke marijuana are perfectly in line with each other because they are saying the same things...since you very likely don't have a prescription for marijuana.

I am guessing your doctor is suggesting marijuana for relief of your son's nausea, vomiting and headaches. It is prescribed for and does work to relieve those symptoms for chemo patients and is legal as a medical treatment in some states. Check www.norml.com for the laws in your state. If you are in California, there are clubs that sell marijuana, seeds, clones, etc. with a doctor's prescription. Grow your own with seeds ordered online from Amsterdam or the UK where seeds are legal.  Elsewhere, start asking around your friends and son's friends. More people smoke than you think - it's just not talked about due to it's legal status!

It all depends, on what you need..If you have a few aches and pains, you could get, whatever you use, here in the states. If you need a prescription, you will need one, from your Doctor..

Drugs should be legalized, and especially marijuana.  Marijuana grows out of the ground, therefore, it must have a purpose.  It is medically proven to help cancer patients and people with multiple sclerosis, yet the stupid government has this whole issue with controlling people's lives.  My husband was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and did not smoke pot.  He kept having exacerbations and ending up in the hospital.  When he began to smoke, he stopped getting sick!  People shouldn't be punished for using drugs...they should be punished is they commit crimes to obtain drugs!

Sixteen years ago Glaxo-Klein first started it's larger spending on lobbyists to make sure that marijuana was kept illegal in this country.  Why?  Because a study the year before found that smoking just a tiny tiny bit would eradicate a headache within seconds.  Yes.....Seconds.  Marijuana is one of the most efficient pain killers that we have on the planet today and there is test after test after test proving so... And now, between the big four pharm. companies, they spent over 100Million last year alone to get laws passed or trials for medical marijuana overturned.  Pot can help AIDS patients for 20.00 dollars a month more so that someone spending 500 dollars a month on pharm. drugs.  I could go on and on, but you get the picture.  be well, be high, Jack

Marijuana should be legalized.  \nTax it.  \nRequire a special license to buy it.  In order to get the license you would have to be a certain age and sign a waiver that you can't receive taxpayer funded services if you get addicted to other drugs or contact lung cancer.\n\nRequire them to disclose the fact that they have the license for job applications.  Where else are we going to get Fast Food Fry Cooks in the future?\n\nWhy not do this for other drugs.  Cigarettes.  Alcohol?  Maybe if people had to accept responsibility for what the drugs could do to their system maybe they would think before ingesting them.

Anything you smoke can affect your lungs. Marijuana like most things can either be used or abused, like food for example. Its incredible to me that people will criticize pot, but not alcohol and tobacco, both of which are vastly evidenced as far more harmful than pot.  But regarding your health, pot may help you relax, loosen up, have fun, etc., but the problem is when you began to crave it, need it, and develop addiction. Just be aware!
