BBC NEWS | Health | NHS patients to be given cannabis:
"NHS patients are to be given cannabis as part of a government-funded trial.
The study, which is being run by the Medical Research Council, aims to find out if the drug really can help to relieve pain.
Scientists will randomly select 400 patients from 36 hospitals across England to take part in the study.
They will be given one of four pills after undergoing surgery, two of which will be a form of cannabis. "
Thank God for that! Finally a sensible study on legit uses of cannabis.
