Welcome to the boards Incubus. I am indeed one of your fellow "freaks", and it's always nice to know we're not alone. I have nerve and soft tissue damage throughout my spine that causes pain in most of my body, especially the back, neck and spine. Smoking weed makes it considerably worse, but not if I keep it to only once (maybe twice) every 2 weeks. So if you're willing to smoke very scarcely, this is something to keep in mind.

Isn't it such a piss off that we have to be in the rare 1% that don't get to enjoy the miracle analgesia everybody else gets from weed?
