OK....there are those who think that pot is illegal, screws up lungs,lives, etc.
Used to smoke alot myself, quit because I have a good job, and don't want to fail a pee test. Been 10 years....dont't really miss it much.
Alcohol prohibition was a mess, and there are not medicinal properties by drinking it whatsoever, and it makes some people mean and obnoxcious and stupid, and cause car accidents and alot of drunk people kill other people because of it. Thing is, it is legal.
Point one.
Now....pot on the other hand, has been mentioned as having a remedial effect on nausea, and a potential alleviant of side effects of Hep medicine, and other ailments as well. You never hear about a dope smoker killing people on the road due to being stoned, because for the most part, they are either at home..too stoned to go anywhere, or drive 15 miles per hour being ultra careful about it. Now......if the regimen of taking hep medicine is 24-48 months, it surely does not take that long for pot to cause cancer, car accidents, amnesia, etc, except for the possiblity of job loss due to **** tests.
Having said that, has anyone on this forum found pot to alleviate side effects of Hep medicine?

Tom
