You're acting like I could make or break this deal......

like I said.....do it.

you just can't get the gov to give a free pass to 200 million people so that you can feel good about your plights.....

stoner or medical necessity....doesn't matter.....do what you have to do.

you just have to realize your pissin' up a rope.

all the time you spend trying to change laws could be spent earning a little extra cash so you can move to Holland...I hear it's legal there.

When I was 12 I thought I should be able to carry a handgun into the woods......the law said.....nope.....21 to carry....so I waited.

and if I commit a felony I can't own a firearm again.....so guess what....I want my guns so I don't commit felonies.....

the equation is really very simple.

HDL still low at 24 normal is greater than 40
Overall cholesterol = 152 normal range less than 200
LDL = 108 normal range less than 129

Weight still at 174

Been type 2 diabetic for more than ten years.

In the last year I've taken only one glucophague tablet.

I have to much work to do to exercise. Most of the time I just don't feel like eating breakfast. Some times not even lunch.

IOW .. no munchies. .. I take that back. Sometimes munchies will show up when my blood sugar dips below 100.

Right after thanksgiving dinner I took a reading .. 143.

Some people have suggested the "C" word. I'm not there yet. (c for cure) A cure for diabetes would be awesome.

Anyway the first reading was from the time I was sentenced. I had a few months, before that, of zero cannabinoids in my system.

As a result of that period of forced lack of consumption my diabetes had been returning. I had been taking the pharma based meds for a few months. Those pharma based drugs degraded my health in contrast to the cannabinoids.
