Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Dear Jan and Group, Let me step in here and try to explain where I think Shane is coming from. Medicinal Marijuana is considered to be a natural herb. It is in fact a " weed " . The fact that it is illegal is more to do with politics than anything else. I have done a lot of research on this. I live in CA. where it is a " hot topic " . As I said my friend, , who was dying of cancer used it for pain relief and to help his nausea. He still died, but he was in less pain with the marijuana than the conventional drugs they gave him. Even marinol didn't help him that much. Still, choosing to use it is breaking the law. Since was so close to death, he took the risk. Many who are proponents of medicinal marijuana also look into vitamin therapy. Vitamins are however legal and so easier to obtain. That said, large doses of some vitamins can be toxic. And many vitamins aren't " natural " but chemical compounds. Whatever anyone decides to ingest, be it meds or vitmins or herbs, do the research first and then decide. You may wish to discuss this with your doctor, but be aware that most doctors aren't trained in alternative or vitamin therapy.
