Yeah it is really a shame that the medical uses of cannabis were swept under the rug for so long - it used to be a standard part of the pharmacopeia as evidenced by that book :) It has so many uses. For pain it is really amazing, it doesn't make the pain go away necessarily, but it makes you feel a lot better and pain doesn't bug you as much. My wife didn't like the prescription pain pills at all and they didn't really make her feel better, but she found marijuana tincture worked way better for her. Added bonus of course that I can whip up our own batches of marijuana tincture at the house in an afternoon... I am not about to create my own batch of hydrocodone anytime soon LOL

Right...the source of pain may persist, but your perception of it can be modulated. I'd rather modulate via the endocannibinoid system than via the opiate receptors.
And congratulations on your expertise as an herbal pharmacist!
