Using Cannabis to Treat GP Symptoms: Yay or Nay?

What are y’all’s thoughts of cannabis to help sooth GP symptoms? I feel like it helps me the most versus all the drugs with nasty side effects. But several of my doctors say it’s doing more harm then good. I actually eat and keep things down and my standard of living is more productive. What are y’all’s opinions of medicinal cannabis, or what has your doctor told you about it?

I use cannabis and it makes me feel better and helps me eat. I actually gained weight and then started losing it very slowly even though most days this year I have not eaten a real whole meal. It depends where you are with your sickness. I stopped for months no difference just felt worser.

I still use cannabis for gastro relief but have cut down a lot
