other things I'm not prepared to divulge.
ThoseI wish I could afford bud like that Daywalker (my landlord won't let me grow). Such beauties are terribly expensive here in the UK. I get by on generic bud and some lovely squidgy Afghani hash.
One day I'll grow!

I am interested in how it has helped COPD. As some of you know, Jess suffers from COPD and we are always looking for ways to alleviate some of the symptoms and such.
I use MJ to manage my fibro (but it is not nearly as helpful as pain meds, ie oxycodone/hydrocodone). I have found that using a vaporizer is much better than a pipe.
I totally get how its been helpful for folks in weight loss. Take a couple of tokes and the muscles relax enough for me to be able to be more active. It also helps with the fibro "brain fog" in that I am able to almost hyper focus on things because my brain isn't dealing with all the pain signals.
Like Sachita, I think that it is something that needs moderation. I have a hard time seeing it being beneficial to be baked all day.
