April 3, 2008 - Speaking to the Fifth Conference on Cannabis Therapeutics, disabled U.S. Air Force veteran and chronic pain patient Michael Krawitz is one of many veterans who find relief from physical and psychological symptoms with medical Cannabis (marijuana). However, new "pain contracts" disqualify patients from recieving opiate pain medicines if they test positive for marijuana.
As science now proves, patients can lessen their need for narcotic pain relievers, notorously hard on the body and mind, by using Cannabis as an adjunct medicine.

At Second Clinical Cannabis Therapeutics Conference in Portland, OR (2002), Dr. Ethan Russ
At Second Clinical Cannabis Therapeutics Conference in Portland, OR (2002), Dr. Ethan Russo recounts major studies on the use of marijuana by different populations.
Beginning with the India Hemp Drugs Commission in 1893, Dr. Russo reports that every study came to basically the same conclusion -
Society has no cause for concern regarding the effects of Cannabis use on health or crime, and in fact, it has many positives - like medicinal value, spiritual traditions and productivity.
Other studies mentioned:
* Panama Canal Zone Army Study (1930)
* La Guardia Report ( 1943)
* Shaffer Commission (1972), with data from Greece, Costa Rica, Jamaica and America.
* N.Y. Academy of Sciences (1976)
* and other N.I.D.A. investigations.
Dr. Russo cites a great reference book for further study:
"Marijuana Myths; Marijuana Facts", by Lynn Zimmer and Dr. John Morgan.
Dr. Russo also debunks the myth that today's marijuana is stronger than 1970's marijuana.

On Nov.20th,1983, Florida stockbroker Irvin Rosenfeld began recieving 300 joints per month
On Nov.20th,1983, Florida stockbroker Irvin Rosenfeld began recieving 300 joints per month of U.S. government-grown marijuana, under the Investigational New Drugs (I.N.D.) program (formed in 1976 when Robert Randall sued the Federal government for access to medical marijuana). As the program was closed to new patients in 1991, Irv is now one of only five legal Cannabis patients in America.
Irv has a rare disease called multiple congenital cartilaginous exostoses, which causes extremely painful bone tumors all over his body. Opiate pain relivers and muscle relaxants (to prevent tearing of muscle) were never adaquate, but Medical Cannabis has made it possible for him to lead a normal and productive life.
Speaking to the Second Clinical Cannabis Therapeutics Conference in Portland, OR in 2002, Irvin was part of the "Chronic Cannabis Use in the Compassionate I.N.D. Program Study", by Dr. Ethan Russo of Missoula, MT, initiated by Patients Out of Time.
The "Missoula Study" examined four of the I.N.D. patients for any negative effects of long-term marijuana use - something the government refused to do with their own patients and data.
