@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member Medical Marijuana is very different then what you "find on the street"...It has a much lower THC amount...And...as the industry blooms (Big Pharma is currently working on a pill form, yeah!) I equate it to wine...There is a wine for everyone, white, red, light & refreshing, big & leathery, etc. etc. Marijuana is not just one type, there are many...Does it work??? Just like everything else, it works for some and not for others...

i certainly would not Fly a plane on marijauna. It is far safer than requip which makes me fall asleep at the wheel. Half the drugs those of us with PD take have potentially serious side effects.

I don't live in one of the states where it is legal so hard to get, but when I do it is a miracle...It makes me feel normal.

I just hate that marijuana has such a stigma attached that people think it still like a Cheech and Chong movie. Come on people, it isn't all about getting high. The break down of what component is needed for the medicinal side of it doesn't even need the THC. The US is so up tight about some things and it's really frustrating for people who could benefit. Our so called leaders are too worried about getting reelected that our government has become ineffective. Please, anyone with moe info let us know. Thanks Colorado and Washington for letting the people speak.
