[QUOTE="71buickfreak, post: 2959307, member: 8373"] Is it a cure all? No. Does have definitive benefits? Absolutely. My mom had cancer, it helped her eat. It took too long for us to get her on it, so she didn't make it, but while she was taking it, it made a difference. It can help cure people with opioid addictions, that's real. A friend of mine has been on morphine tabs for 2 decades, for his back pain. If he misses a dose, it gets really bad. If he takes a couple puffs and forgets to take his morphine, he doesn't even notice. After a week of proper dosing, you get used to it and build up a tolerance. At that point, using it medicinally is not a big deal. You wouldn't even know the person in front of you was medicated. it does not dull your senses, in most cases it heightens them. It is an anti-spasmodic, which is why they use it to treat kids with seizures. I have a "friend" who get really bad muscle spams that put him at a level 8-9 pain level. they last 30-60 minutes, not long enough to take nsaids. One puff at the onset and by the time the water in the shower is hot (a hot bath helps), the pain is gone. They usually hit around 2-5 am, wrecks your sleep, and sometimes they double-flare, so it fires back up an hour later. He has had two episodes in the last 8 months, before it was every2-3 weeks. It was not debilitating, but it gets to you, and you worry about having an episode, because it puts you down for a while. [/QUOTE]
