I know it helped me, it makes my bones "feel good" and I feel like stretching and walking. If the government is not going to distribute their "corprorate pharmaceuticals" at a price the "people" can afford , then they at least should allow people to take care of themselves.

I've suffered from arthritis since the age of sixteen, beginning with an episode of bursitis in my left knee, and eventually working its way everywhere else.. my hands are the most recently affected and its really beginning to irk me, i'm not even thirty yet FFS!! I smoke pot on a daily basis, and when i don't, i feel like crap and can't get anything done. Kristy  Signature(( /\ /\ )) /@ @\ (( \ _* _/<\\\\\\> / * \ / \ /\ / \ // / \ // | | | | | |/ # # # # *Bomber* Hi, I know what you mean. I've got a chronic medical condition that lets me legally get all sorts of addictive drugs... from soma and tramadol to methadone. but weed... NOOOOOO.... I got raided for 6 plants in my backyard.. I'm almost 50, just wanted/needed a little non-addictive pain relief. the government would rather have me doing methadone every day. >>http://arthritis.about.com/cs/medmarijuana/a/marijuanadebate.htm >>This is just FYI.

Were you arrested? Rescue Ranger > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > > -- Hi, it was a total cluster f.ck. raid was in august. not arrested. came back next day with the inventory of what they confiscated. not arrested... told me grand jury would be in october. october comes and goes... not arrested. november got a cheapo last minute deal to amsterdam so the fiance and I spent a 4 day weekend in amsterdam... no problems. supposedly got indicted in december. but they didn't come and get me (same house, listed phone number), didn't mail me, nothing. we (fiance, mother, 2 kids, brother and sister in law) go to jamaica to get married in july (got married on father's day)... coming back I hit customs and they arrest me... for being "a fugitive without warrant" (if there's no warrant how can I be a fugitive)... they hold me for 3 days before setting bond, 35,000$, it's posted within an hour,... they keep me another 23 hours... all the while denying me medical care. then release me... 90 days later the city drops those charges... the county I live in (right across the state line) sets an appearance date, 5,000$ bond, posted within minutes (had lawyer and bondsman there)... next day lawyer files for discovery... this was last august... they still haven't responded... so now it's been 19 months since the raid, still no discovery, still no court date. so I just counted out my drug supply for the weekend (I keep the narcotics in a safe at work, we've got cameras outside the door, state police for security, etc... oh btw... I work for the state medical school!)... so I counted out half a dozen benzos, some schedule II, and III, narcotics (real narcotics, opiates), a schedule IV muscle relaxer plus some ultram and soma... after all that's SO much better than just having a couple of vicodin for emergencies in the medicine cabinet and smoking a couple of homegrown joints in the privacy of my bathroom (I don't do it in front of the kids) 1 after work and 1 before bed... > What did they do to you?

Can you sue anyone for all that sh.t? I may not like > Kerry much but Bush is making this country into a police state. Hi, not really. technically I can... and do a Robert Randall.. federally sue for access to marijuana 'cause everything else is more hazardous... but I'll be "under investigation" until the state of limitations expires probably. and sometimes it's just better to "let it die quietly in the back of a filecabinet because they don't want the department embarrased and you don't want that neither... right?" I'm a legally registered voter. as it is I'm looking at some pretty serious surgery this summer and I'm trying to get my opiate tolerance way DOWN (avoiding even the tramadol if I can) despite the fact that I've got prescriptions for strong enough stuff but I don't want to use it... even legally... cause I -know- I'm going to want all the bang I can get out of whatever they give me for pain THEN and as effective as possible... cause we call know that if you're doing opiates daily you've got a tolerance you didn't when you were clean even if you don't have real withdrawls. a couple of percs just doesn't do it for you anymore. as far as Bush/Kerry... they're both jerkwads... they just tell different lies to a different audience. I'm a libertarian... I want drugs AND guns!... liberals just want drugs :-} Hey mouse, that's fu#$d. But how do you fight that? what are we supposed to do? anyone? > What did they do to you?

At the risk of being an ill informed quack, have you tried DMSO? Try googling on it, plus the other conditions. SignatureDirk The Consensus:- The political party for the new millennium http://www.theconsensus.org No, I take so many meds now they won't let me use anything else such as that or herbs or anything.
