Any experience out there with this for chronic low back pain
Posted 1/17/2014 4:19 PM (GMT 0)
I don't have personal experience but I have a close friend who has cancer and he swears by MM. He had to have his leg amputated and he feels constant pain (back, leg, side, body aches) and they have him on neurotin (spelling?), roxicodone and lortab for BT pain and 75mcg of Fentanyl every 72 hours... But if you ask him what takes care of his pain, its the medical marijuana. That speaks volumes to me! My pain clinic doesn't allow for MM and when I tried it as a teenager I didn't like the way it made me feel but I know several (including my dad who is in remission from prostate cancer) and they don't use any medications... The MM takes care of it.

I believe it is against HealingWell's Guidelines to discuss Medical marijuana. Even though it is legal in some states, it is still against Federal Law is all 50 states.

Actually Peter changed the rules and as long as the topic stays on medical not recreational it may be discussed in an adult like manner with out causing issues .

Wow. That's great. Too bad it took so long to change the rules. Great news though!

sorry if this caused problems.

You didn't, its allowed! I think this is the first subject on it since the rule change.

lumiere, it didn't cause problems. It helped, because now everyone will know about the policy changes.
