Hell yes (http://blogs.wsj.com/health/2008/02/15/internists-tell-feds-to-lighten-up-on-marijuana/?mod=googlenews_wsj)

I agree it helped my girlfriend cope withe the effects of treatment from Hopkins lymphoma. She didnt get as sick as much and actually gained some wieght versus losing while in 4 months of treatment.


I never see it passing in Texas thou like in California where you can buy it next to police stations with an easily to obtain permit.

But at least some in the government disagree vehemently with the idea of legalizing medical marijuana. “What this would do is drag us back to 14th-century medicine,”


Ummm, if 14th century medicine is relieving symptoms and alleviating discomfort, what is the problem? Go discuss that over your three martini lunch.

It reads like every other debatable issue in Washington. The experts - I'll assume the Physicians College qualifies - make a statement, and then the government refutes it. Politicians, you see, are experts on everything, and they know more about fossile fuel, global warming, and medical topics than anyone else.

“What this would do is drag us back to 14th-century medicine,"I wonder if she knows that we still use leeches.

And maggots...
