Yes, it really is funny considering that the medical community makes so many ridiculous and inaccurate claims against the medicinal use of marijuana when they 'push' so many prescription drugs that can cause various harmful and often irreversible side effects such as, comas, heart problems, blurred vision, trouble swallowing, shortness of breath, urinary tract infections, muscle cramps, dizziness, fatigue, joint pain, diarrhea, constipation, abnormal heart rhythms, swelling of the throat, and even death, etc. It is amazing to me that often when a patient complains of a side effect the answer and the solution from their physician is usually to counter the side affect with yet another prescription drug with its own side effects and it becomes a vicious cycle; all the while the pharmaceutical companies are making billions!
