“Contrary to what we’ve all been mis-taught [marijuana is] not a very harmful drug… it’s a drug remarkably free of toxicity providing it’s used intelligently.” -- Lester Grinspoon,
Psychiatry Professor at Harvard University
Cooking Up A little Pain-Relief
This helps tremendously, when I have some pain in my pancreas... I just dab a little on my gums a few times a day.., and Im good to go!
And, it's way better than some toxic, addictive opiates!!!
EDIT: Just to elaborate a little more... The first time I had an acute pancreatitis attack, there was no pain -- I was just vomiting non-stop. My 70 year old Mom came by and was watching me throw-up, dry heave.., throw-up, dry heave -- over and over... I finally reached into my nightstand and whipped out a nice half of a joint... After 3-4 puffs, within seconds, I was sitting up having a normal conversation with her... She couldn't believe her eyes. Going fro non-stop vomiting to "normal" in a matter of mere seconds! The oil helps better if I have pain.., and that's when I cook it.
