Glad you heard things. OK that is covered although not very common especially in the GFY age range.

Not asking about what you read. Either you are using with a prescription or are not.
Will add a PS - as a pain killer it is BS, but OK.

Typically AIDS patients would use it for nausea, insomnia, and eating issues. Again pain killer is sort of BS and people will real illnesses know this already.
So anyone? Not just what you hear?
I will be simple with mine. I use it mostly for eating issues as I have chronic anemia. It does offer very slight spasm control for me (works better for others). I do have insomnia but do not have a usage for that. It also is prescribed to me for nausea due to medications I take, which again effect appetite too.
I do have a whole laundry list of medical issues, just listed the ones I had it actually prescribed by a doctor for, and no I did not pay for a prescription or letter of recommendation. (Guess if you did, you can answer that too). I used my regular doctor.
