I believe it can be helpful for certain patients. My concern 1. The reasons for being prescribed will be too lax. 2. Marijuana stays in your system for up to 30 days. Since there is no fool proof test to show the "amount" in your system and when you have ingested it, many people might be under the influence driving.
There needs to be more research and restrictions first. As a chronic pain patient I am aware how it can help many people. I just want to be sure we do it with safety measures in place first. Just because we allow alcohol to be legal does not mean we can let everyone do what they want with it. It is 2013 and we are still trying to curtail abuse. How many years will it take to get this right?
