I have never heard of heroin having any use for medicinal purposes. Marijuana is often prescribed for nausea associated with chemo therapy to stimulate appetite and for glaucoma patients to relive pressure on the optic nerve.

We obviously have a difference of opinion here and again, I’ve never heard of heroin being anything but death itself.

I lost dozens of friends over the many years from over dosing on that s**t.

Never heard of anyone over dosing on weed.

I have no truck with you ‘’Intruder’’. You’re entitled to your view and I to mine. pax.

Hashish. Wow. Haven’t seen or heard of that stuff being around since the ‘70s. But that was a long time ago and a different time for me. Time when I was a much younger and crazy kid.
