What do you think?

Hey guys/gals, just a little question for all of you, i expect opinions and suggestions, im not looking for answers.
I have Ulcerated Colitis, its a rare intestinal disease that gives me severe stomach pain/cramping, it gives my Bi-Polarity which is a stress disorder b/c after all , its a stress related disease. I recently lost 20 lbs in under 2 weeks b/c of the flu, being sick with anything is amplified due to my disease. Now, wouldnt u think it should be OK for people like me to smoke once and a while? im not saying i dont, i blaze everyday. but ive been bringing up interesting points to my parents and my specialist (doctor) but all they do i turn their backs to the idea. they automatically dissallow it b/c its a drug, they fail to see the medicinal uses besides the recreational use. All i want is to smoke in vain, im getting sick of marijuana being labeled as a "Drug" , it gives it a bad name.

and the question is, whats ur stand on medical marijuana and how sick do u have to be to be cleared to be prescribed with it. honestly i think i qualify, but hey, thats just stoner talk maybe.

First off, medicines are drugs. Marijuana is also a drug, whether it is used as medicine or recreation. Get at least THAT much straight.

Next, if marijuana helps you, smoke iy. If black tar heroin helps improve your quality of life, you should have a right to do black tar heroin. The feds are preventing you from living a happier life than you can, and that's not right.

Lastly, I'm not aware of the laws on prescribing medicine to people, so I don't know who should and who should not get prescribed marijuana, but most definitely people who live with chronic (NPI) pains. Even if there are other medicines that relieve the pain, I believe it should be the patient's decision

My mother has Crohns & Colitis and she had problems in the past keeping food down. She weighed as low as 89lbs now she's near 100lbs, but she's only 5'2". Anyways I heard that Crohns is a recognized as a disease that could be aided by medicinal marijuanna use. She doesn't use pot, and would never consider it but when medicinal pot laws become more relaxed in the States & Canada you should bring it up to your doctor/specialist and tell them that you've only felt better when you've been smoking pot.

in my opinion i think that medical marijuana is abused most of the times that pple have it and it isnt for serious problems. i think that if people want medical marijuana federally legal then states need to make more limits on who can use it and how much they can have. ive seen people at parties that have medical and talk about how easy it is to get and how you can just make up an illness and shit.

 

[Watson]

yea, being totally honest is a problem these days. My doctor may not be prescribing it to me just because i am a teenager and yes i have asked him if smoking marijuana has an effect on my disease b4 i asked him about it being prescribed to me. But for me, i love to smoke recreationlly to have fun, but it goes far beyond fun, it aids me and quite frankly i dont understand why those assholes have to deprive me of it. thanks guys.

I think medical marijuana should only be prescribed to the chronic pain. I think the pain you go through is enough to constitute it's use. I know this isn't agreeable by the pothead standards of "LEGALIZE IT NOW", but I think small steps in the drugs freedom of use are needed. If everyone in the US decides "hey i got a fever....I need medical marijuana" it will just end up killing it in a few years when they see it's gotten out of control. Small steps in the right direction are better than leaps because with leaps you have the potential to leap off coarse(sp?).

 

[Watson]

yea i think ur right there, in order to run, u have to learn to take baby steps first. i think there should be a set of guidelines for people like me, just to see if u fit the criteria for it, but that would only be possible if these laws would lighten up. only time can tell whats in store for us. slowly but surely i say.

There is a percription drug called Marinol, it is basically weed pills. They are given to people that have anorxia for example, to increase their appitite. I even know a kid that got them percribed because he was blind ?! So I defenatly think you should cheack that out, talk to your specialist.

My suggestions, Id start taking a teaspoon of pure vitamin c powder everyday for your immune system recovery. I would cut out every drink except bottled water for a couple months. I would start eating clean, no fried food or sweets, and eat less. I would try to walk at least 30 minutes a day at a strong pace for exercise. And I would smoke twice as much weed as you have been. Hope you heal.

 

[Why Doe]

Im just gonna come out and say it. People are close minded idiots!! Man made drugs are okay but a natural growing god given plant is not? It blows my mind.

 

[JonsGrowTech]

You have all the right to feel good. I hope your doing better.

It's been proven that ulcerative colitis is one of the medical conditions which is greatly relieved with the use of marijuana.
