I think it would have replaced the Lyrica, Lunesta and Norco I was taking, all of which are more addictive. Plus, it would have had the added benefit of helping with my lack of appetite and nausea.
Since it's not legal in my state, I didn't want to be the first in my household full of children to make excuses for bringing illegal drugs home. I *know* it would have been different for me, but I also *know* my teenage son would have used the excuse, "Well, Mom ...."
As it was, I didn't use it. It took me six months to wean off the other meds after Lyme treatment was finished. And I still miss the Lunesta and Lyrica, so I don't think they're less addictive at all.
Long way of saying, I think it may help alleviate symptoms, but probably not the Lyme itself.

What is the truth on marijuana?
Does it suppress immune system? Can it cause lung damage?
I've heard both sides before but I want the TRUTH! ha

Google marijuana health benefits and I think you'll be very surprised.
I have personal experience with it when I smoked it every day back in the late 70's early 80's. I was bitten by ticks (including have a fully engorged tick removed from my arm in the late 70's.
Didn't know the dangers or anything about Lyme then. It staved off the effects of full blown Lyme until 1983 when I had a major stress episode and became very ill.
I felt too toxic too continue smoking it. It has been reported to have antibacterial properites as well as being an antispasmotic against seizures.
