I am a 43 yr. female living with severe pain in both my shoulders and lower lumbar area. I have had sugeries to remove discs between vertebre and now suffer with 2 pinched nerves, one in the neck and one between L3 and L4 in my lower spine. The narcotic painkillers I have do absolutely nothing to relieve the pain...they're great if you want to feel all dungy and tired. In the past i have used marijuana (smoked thru a pipe) and during the 3 yrs. I did, my pain diminished substatially. Of course our goverment refuses to acknowledge the benefits of cannibis use in any way shape of form. Should it ever become legalized I believe that will not come in my lifetime. So, because of misinformed, misguided, goverment leaders..I expect a dead end to my treatment ever utilizing the cannibis herb. If at all possible, please lead me in such a direction to be able to obtain the medicinal miricle known as marijuana. Any info you or your group could offer me would be truly appreciated. May God Bless....and I hope to hear someting from you soon. Most Sincerely, Christine // email: Pusscakes1960@Yahoo.com Phone:620 597 2467

I'm 17 and I suffer from the same problem, a pinched nerve in my neck, causing severe pain running down my right arm. this problem was caused by a wrestling injury about a year ago, and after a few different treatments and prescriptions but with no relief. about this time is when i began using marijuana, occasionally at first, but when i found that it helped my pain, i began using marijuana daily. unfortunately, this did not fly with my parents or administrators in my school so recently i have had to cease us of this miracle herb. i had almost forgotten about my shoulder and arm pain but after a few days of not using, the pain came right back. unfortunately i cannot use marijuana anymore until i leave home and graduate high school so until then i have tough out the pain, unless anyone knows of a way that i could sweet talk my local doctor into giving the people around me the ok for using marijuana. thanks for listening. kevin

If you ever happened to move to Canada, there is medical marijuana available.

there is 1 solution to your problem other than move. Get enough people to rise up and say, "if anything be done at least make marijuana a prescription drug" cuz i m right there with u i m 52 and have very similar problems.
