Re: Results of my new doctor search

The reason being tunnel vision. So ppl. will do what they've done. Go to
Europe to get the treatment or medicate themselves here in the US. Or use
it, claiming treatment...when actually it's not treating anything for that
individual.

I think the Canadians will eventually get around to studying it in
controlled trials. But don't hold yer breath waiting for migraine relief
from MJ or Marinol...for the reasons I've cited.
