MARIJUANA GOOD FOR MIGRAINES?

MARIJUANA GOOD FOR MIGRAINES?

MISSOULA, Montana (Wireless Flash) -- Marijuana may become the treatment of choice for migraine sufferers. A neurologist in Missoula, Montana, will soon conduct a study to determine whether smoking marijuana can help treat migraines. The study will involve 40 migraine sufferers, some of which will be given non-psychoactive marijuana. Dr. Ethan Russo hopes to start the study in January after he receives permission from the National Institute on Drug Abuse which is the only U.S. supplier of research marijuana. By the way, potheads planning to fake migraines in hopes of getting government grade weed are out of luck -- the study has a strict screening process designed to weed out folks with make- believe migraines.
