Q: Marijuana And Seizure Control?

Are there any success stories yet? I have read extensively on it and how
it could really control seizures - however, there is trouble to publish success stories as it is not legalized in all the states. Mad

thanks!

My dad is 45 and hes been smoking marijuana since he was 16. My dad started getting seizures 7yrs, he would get a 3 seizures a day til after a year he finaly went to the doctors to get medication for it and now on dilantin he still gets 1 seizure every 3 weeks, so I really dont think the marajana is any help for seizures, but if you hear of any success stories let me know.
