I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease for 6 years before I realized I could be a legal medical marijuana patient. I had quit my recreational use but most of my friends still use and I would joke with them that maybe I could get medical marijuana.

I didn't find out it actually has helped many other Crohn's patients with these symptoms until I had a bad reaction to some steroids prescribed by my doctor, (who never warned me about any of the possible side effects). It also has many preventable health benefits, has been shown to reduce cancerous tumors, perhaps even prevent, and is a great appetite stimulant.

More people should be doing research on this drug and taking legalization for medical, and recreational, more seriously. Being a legal medical patient has many wonderful benefits such as consistent quality, and specified strain per medical use. And if it weren't for the DEA terrorists, we would have more competition meaning lower price, and mass production offering high quality commercialized food products infused with cannabis.

Opps....kinda went off on a pro-medical rant hehe
