A member asked:
I have tried neuropathy pills and haven't found one that won't make me feel worse, can medical marijuana help me?

Possibly: Marijuana will relieve pain in the short term at a cost of intellectual function. No one knows how long this relief will last.

Be very careful: There are very few studies that prove that medical marijuana is safe and effective for many conditions including painful neuropathy. Also, long term studies regarding its safety are not available yet.
