Bob,
Just a comment about weed. My daughter was trying to convince me to give it a try. However, I have signed a "drug contract" with my pain management clinic. Essentially, this says that I am subject to random drug tests. If these tests show anything that is nor prescribed by them, of if it shows I have been taking "too much" of the ones they prescribed, I can be kicked out of their clinic, In other words, I will cease to be a patient, and they may or may not take me back after a long time.
In addition, I am subject to random drug tests for my job. I have not had one for a couple of years, but it could happen at any time. The consequences for a positive test are costly to me.
Many people do not realize how long THC stays in the system - long after you have used it.
The relief may be worth the "risk," but everyone should consider all of the ramifications.
Good luck to you,
Mike
