Hey Syl! Hope you are well. I'm going to be honest here. I've done alot of research on medical marijuanna and have decided to give it a try. For the past week I've been using it (evenings only after kids are in bed...and I smoke outside). I have to say that along with my Acacia and sticking to the diet I have felt better than I have in 2 years. I don't notice a difference in my bloating but as far as my D goes - I've actually had solid BM's every AM for 3 days...not sure if it's a coincidence or what but I'm def. going to continue and see if it helps...
