Obstacles Abound for Weed as Novocaine Replacement

Interesting. Based on my experience, marijuana INTENSIFIES physical
sensations. I think it's the last thing I'd want to partake of before any
sort of painful medical procedure. But, like alcohol, everyone's
experience is different.

Not having any relevant experience myself, I welcome your expert
commentary.

The one time I tried the weed, way back in college before electricity was
discovered, it make me puke. Since then, even the scent of the stuff makes
me nauseous.

I'm hoping Dr. Happy Tooth, our discussion group dental authority, will
offer his expert opinion, too.

I wish the weed would knock out cats for a while; we just took several of
ours in for their annual teeth cleaning last week, and since they have to
be knocked out for the job, the cost per each animal is about twice what
our dentist charges us for human teeth cleaning.

Most human patients don't threaten to rip the doctor's arm off. :-)
