RE:Doctors wary of cannabis as a medicine A few years back I had ear surgery. They gave me some kind of opioid for pain. And a noloxone kit in case I od'd. I was a fu(king rock star. It was amazing. After taking a couple of doses my wife asked me how long I would keep taking them. After my third dose I switched to cannabis. Once on cannabis I no longer felt the pain and I was no longer a super human. But I can see how oxy's can really mess up a person! So maybe those Drs need to look at the big picture and stop supporting their corporate buddies who push deadly solutions!
