Of course you have no pain when you are stoned....that's the idea for users. Same with alchohol or any other mind-numbing drug.....

Let the pot users flame me, but this is another classic scientific finding to be used politically to pander for a voter class, ie, pot users.

Perhaps you missed the part where they said that the large majority were able to get pain relief WITHOUT getting stoned?

My wife and I are not users, we dont even drink. This may be what you say, but I tell you, if this study bears out, I am going to look into it for my wife, who suffers with debilitating pain each minute of each and every day. I'm sure she will be interested.

I had stage IV lymphoma and 8 rounds of chemo. I don’t know which one caused me the lasting pain for the last 3+ years. 41 now and I hope a long life ahead of me. Some days I fear that the pain will take all the joys of life from me. If you don’t have pain all the time, I’m not sure people can understand. I have not smoked pot in 20+ years but if it was legal, I might try it. I live on tylenol, asprin, ibuprofen and minimal perscrip meds. Not where I wanted to be in life. But hey, I’m still moving. Smoke a stupid weed? Sure if it helped. Actually hell yes if it helped. But its not legal and could cost me my living so I won’t.
