Thx brutha, If you find the right "DR." anything is possible  ;). Money talks. I just am tired of all the damn random drug testing. I am a good person and bust my ass for what I have. What I do with my time is my business. I am tired of being looked at like a criminal because I smoke weed.  I am my own pharmacy. I don't rely on the FDA and big Pharm to tell me what is good for me. They are the ones that scare me.  To many recalls and lawsuits. When was the last time weed was being brought up in court for wrongful death lawsuit?

Only full legalization is satisfactory.  MMJ does not solve many problems. 
 
It is progress on a social scale, but not the solution.

All cannabis use is medicinal.

A 2002 review of medical literature states that medical cannabis has established effects in the treatment of nausea, vomiting, premenstrual syndrome, unintentional weight loss, insomnia, and lack of appetite. Other "relatively well-confirmed" effects were in the treatment of "spasticity, painful conditions, especially neurogenic pain, movement disorders, asthma, [and] glaucoma".

Preliminary findings indicate that cannabis-based drugs could prove useful in treating adrenal disease, inflammatory bowel disease, migraines, fibromyalgia, and related conditions.
Medical cannabis has also been found to relieve certain symptoms of multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injuries by exhibiting antispasmodic and muscle-relaxant properties as well as stimulating appetite.

Other studies state that cannabis may be useful in treating alcohol abuse, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, collagen-induced arthritis, asthma, atherosclerosis, bipolar disorder, bulimia, colorectal cancer, HIV-Associated Sensory Neuropathy, depression, dystonia, epilepsy, digestive diseases, gliomas, hepatitis C, Huntington's disease, leukemia, skin tumors, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Parkinson's disease, pruritus, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psoriasis, sickle-cell disease, sleep apnea, and anorexia nervosa.
