Thanks so much for posting this discussion of Medical Marijuana! The doctors clarify most of the information others and I have posted on Connect. Since I'm not a medical professional, it's so much better to hear the information from the physicians at Mayo who have been researching the effects and use of Medical Marijuana for chronic pain, nausea and withdrawal from opiods. This is great news because it confirmed my use of CBD during my withdrawal from Tramadol, and 36 years ago when I quit smoking. I smoked some marijuana at the time when I was really struggling with quitting smoking. It really did help, but I always felt guilty that I had done something illegal. LOL now. I hope others have listened to this radio show.
