I have watched video's,I have read countless articles, I have talked to many many professionals about Chronic Pain,Fibromyalgia, Neuropathy,Arthritis of the Spine. I tried to have a Spinal Cord Stimulator put in and they could only get it in 2 inches in any given area of my back, I was awake laying on an operating table for 1 1/2 hours as they tried to insert this 20" long by 1/4" diameter computer into my body to try and control the pain I have EVERY DAY whether I am laying in bed, standing up or sitting in a chair, I did not take this option lightly as it took me 2 months to decide to even try this.As I was laying on the operating table the representative of the Company that makes the stimulator said that I should do this test for 2 weeks that it has helped thousands of people, as I lay there on my stomach she said we have done this thousands of times and I have never seen where it could NOT be inserted.
I am 57 years old and can say I have tried marijuana 2x in my life, but the health issue's I am fighting now, going on 3 1/2 years with pain that is ridiculous every day of my life, it appears it is my new normal day. I sleep if I'm lucky 4 hours a night, I cannot do every day daily tasks since my injury, I had surgery, this BS that they tell you that you're going to be a NEW man, trust me I can now get out of bed where I could not before I had the surgery, but I AM TELLING YOU I HURT SERIOUSLY EVERY DAY !!!!!! There are days that I cannot even walk to my garage. My doctor wants me to try Marijuana to see if it helps me, I am not a Marijuana user, but I am really considering trying it to see if it will help me function as a normal person again. People that know me know that I do not take this issue lightly, as I cannot even go out and enjoy a nice dinner because I cannot sit that long, I cannot bend over to pick up a fallen child, but I still have hope that one day I will feel like nothing ever happened to me that I have never had a injury that has totally taken over my life. And if trying Marijuana is the answer I will try it but Honestly it is going to have to work Miraculously for me to give up my rights as a Law Abiding Citizen of The United States of America.

You know that medical marijuana is legal, don’t you? I’m not sure what you mean by giving up your rights?

Yes ma'am I do. If you are that stupid, you should run your life as you see fit. We managed just fine before the government stuck their noses into our lives. Then they're behind the wheel, in the workplace, and around children. No thank you. No different than alcohol, or putting mascara on while driving. There needs to be a strong deterrence to depriving others of their liberty, frankly you wouldn't like how I handled situations where you let your stupidity infringe on others rights. You would only do it once.

All this drama, when the real question should be, "What right does the government have to prevent me from using it?"
Forget each and every little mother may I that is thrown in front of you each day, were you born with inalienable God given rights or not.
Sadly, many today seem to have forgotten what life outside the cage is like.

helen what I am talking about is soon as you do the legalized you give up your right to conceal carry, but that honestly is not the determing factor, I just am not a person that makes a uninformed decision for the Long term. The other thing is that most all Employers do drug testing, and a Fail usually means immediate Termination.

most if not all employers will not let you work if you are using opiates for pain so marijuana will not be allowed either in a work place or as a recreational drug if legalized. most people are just looking for marijuana to be legalized for recreational purposes and could care less about pain control. if it works for a person to help control pain then let the person use it.

I don't have time now to share more I found researching it, but Rocket, did you see the full video of the elderly msns reaction to taking CBD oil who has Parkinsons?
Bugeyed, Med. MJ is legal in Illinois! Please use it, it may ease your pain & it's not un-american to use a God-given plant. It's in the Bible, Gen. about the use & abundace of & in the Garden of Eden.
BTW, a "Q" for you all ... Who owns the patent on MJ cigs?

People,if you have a medical condition, and it is on the list to get access to marijuana, take your doctors advice when they recommend it to you. Bugeyed you carrying a gun is more important to you than to get this miracle plant to kill pain? If i had a serious medical problem that the only thing that works is marijuana,i would choose marijuana to put an end to the suffering of pain.

Yep They grew it @ the Univ. of Miss., made them & sent tins of the cigs to people. As of about a year ago, they were still sending them to the last person on the list.

Rocket, I said I do not take this lightly, I try to do what I can without commiting to something long term. I honestly have tried it recreationally 2x in my life and yes one day I will try it. I could care less about the concealed carry ramifications as I do not carry as it is. So an answer to your Question no it is not more important to carry a gun as it is for me to live PAIN FREE !!!

Thank you for answering the question. Now i really do hope you do become pain free and end the suffering by giving medical marijuana a try again. The cbd seems to be the ingredients that helps medically without getting high. The thc is what makes you high.

It's cheaper to buy marijuana from the "street" here in Illinois than medical dispensary. An ounce costs $365-450 in Ottawa, while you can get the same quality from the street for $250-300. I would assume those with medical cards do get help from the state/Fed though and if would make cost out of pocket cheaper.
