My brother, a retired AF LtCol as well, recently opened a CBD store in South Carolina. He did his research and found it to be promising when the FDA and Congress removed it from the Marijuana and controlled substance list he went for it. He had people coming in droves to try it because medicines they have been taking have helped but not fully. For instance, chronic back pain, CBD will not heal it but it will aid in tolerance. Some folks come in with anxiety and depression and he sells them the different variants for those areas. There are differnt mixtures for different things and he is seeing repeat customers and recommendations from those customers to others because they come back and state they have tried everything else and nothing worked but this. He will tell them up front that it will not cure anything...that it is not snake oil...but it will aid in various ailments. He also sells lotions and all the other products that are associated with it. Then there are the stoners that come in wanting to try and buy straight hemp to smoke. He tells them 1.) turn around and walk out that he doesn't sell that stuff and , 2.) they could try and smoke it but Hemp doesn't carry the hallucinogenic effects of marijuana even though they are in the same family of plants. I have also seen a few pharmacies around here start to carry it as doctors are telling their patients to try it. I hope it can help some veterans.

Sometimes relief is all one needs. Cures are great but not possible in many circumstances, so anything that helps tolerate symptoms is a good thing.

We get more and more people asking about it. That tells me it will eventually be readily available most everywhere.

Easily Available in the KC Metro Now. I Understand that it is a Bit Pricey Though.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel I have tried that "MEDICAL MARIJUANA", but for me, it did not help much. But the state of MN is developing the thought of legalizing marijuana (talk about the TAX BENEFIT!)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Florida legalized medical marijuana but so far getting it into the hands of those who really could use it has been a political goat rope.
