Dude, you're really over-analyzing everything. It's one thing to argue against this side effect or that side effect or for or against the legitimacy of it's use for medicinal purposes when you're not in pain. But if you're in pain, just try it and see if it helps. It's that simple.
I had a bacterial infection in my stomach for most of 2014. I lost a lot of weight and had severe cramps every day from early June through mid September. The cramps also made it hard for me to sleep. At some point in August, I talked to my doctor about whether or not I should try smoking it. Even though she couldn't prescribe it here in NYC, she told me to go ahead and try it so I did.
I smoked every day for about 2 weeks. The first couple of days were admittedly pretty fun, but I quickly grew tired of being high all the time. I would just smoke, make a couple peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, listen to some music, and pass out. So, it directly helped for weight gain and insomnia and also somewhat 'numbed' the cramps, or at least made me care less about them. Even though it helped for all those reasons, I simply did not like being high every day. Some people like it, some people don't. I don't. So I quit after two weeks. To me, being high was an unwanted side effect not much different than diarrhea or constipation or one of the other unpleasant side effects that can occur when taking many different types of medicine.
Good luck.
