DEA CANNABIS RESCHEDULING

PUBLIC COMMENT VIEWER

Here is a random public comment on the rescheduling of cannabis to Schedule III from Tamara Michel.

Cannabis has been a miracle for me! I have chronic pain from multiple sclerosis. I used to be on a cocktail of pain medicines which left me like a zombie. I detested them. When talk turned to morphine or fentanyl I gave in and tried a marijuana edible. You see, I was a poster child for the 'war on drugs' and never experimented with substances in my younger years. So, it took some coaxing for me to even entertain the idea of eating that edible. However, the pain relief was SO much better without the side effects or dangers of the prescription meds! I was an instant believer! So much that I became an activist! It baffles my mind that we can get prescriptions for meds like fentanyl and not cannabis! It's time to allow all doctors the freedom to treat their patients with cannabis, without fear of repercussions!
