Yup...as many things that are listed on here, I know that it's not complete. And why the states are so "stingy" in determining what cannabis can help with, I have no idea. I wonder who makes those lists up anyways?

It's kinda weird but mj is like an umbrella herb meaning that it can be combined with other herbs to enhance their effect. I love MJ!
It certainly is a most beautiful and unique plant, isn't it? :)
