> I've always been on the skeptical side of medical marijuana usage in all but the most extreme cases Really? A friend of mine had a similar experience to what @ergothus described in their comments. The friend had a biking accident and got stitches. To ease the pain the doctor prescribed Aadvil / Tylenol, but those drugs just caused diarrhea. So he tried edible marijuana[in a legal state] and it helped him a lot through a few weeks of painful recovery without any side effects. I find miracle claims suspect as well, I don't think marijuana cures cancer.
