I go back and forth on the use of MM. It's legal in CA, but not federally, so the feds can lock you and your doc up if caught....yeah, ridiculous. If only we could convince the feds that MJ should come off their list of "highly dangerous drugs." No one's going to hallucinate and drive off bridges or go on a murderous rampage on pot. But the Conservatives sure think they are! How do we convince them that pot is not heroin or crack!

Anyway, I have tried MM from time to time on my MS pain. Some pain is helped, and other times it is not. It depends on the type you smoke/eat/ingest. I had no idea there were different strains of MJ. But some will relax you and make you sleepy, others will make you hungry and give you the munchies. Some will ease your pain, and then others will just ease your mind so you won't care about the pain.

If you buy it off the street you don't always know exactly what "flavor" you're getting and thus it may or may not help your particular sx at that particular time. When going to an MM clinic, you will get the right type of MJ for the relief you need.
