So this can really cure me????
Many medical conditions are incresing these days. So cures are increasing and becoming more and more outrageous. The use of Marijuana for medical conditions is now being greatly considered and debated over.
In 1972, the US Congress placed marijuana in Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act because they considered it to have "no accepted medical use." Since then, 15 out of 50 US states and DC have legalized the medical use of marijuana. The public opinion supports and opposes this. Supporters of of medical marijuana argue that it can be a safe and effective treatment for the symptoms of cancer, AIDS, multiple sclerosis, pain, glaucoma, epilepsy, and other conditions.Opponents of medical marijuana argue that it is too dangerous to use, lacks FDA-approval, and that various legal drugs make marijuana use unnecessary. They say marijuana is addictive, leads to harder drug use, interferes with fertility, impairs driving ability, and injures the lungs, immune system, and brain. The Conant v. Walters court case deals with this situation which gives physicians the First Amendment right to discuss medical marijuana with their patients.
