Cannabis Vs Mesalamine

I'm a 66 year old male who has suffered with moderate to (mostly) severe UC for 13 years. I have used these and other physician ordered drugs with unsatisfactory results and even Merkel Cell cancer while taking 6 Mercaptopurine to suppress my immune system. I could have died from the cancer. I live in New Jersey where I easily qualified for medical marijuana (cannabis). I now live a completely normal life without UC flares. My medical oncologist just discharged me after I survived over 5 years after a cancer that I had a 25% chance of surviving for 2 years. I'm now cancer free. I now enjoy the best UC symptom relief with only cannabis used two to three times daily. I don't anticipate a return of Merkel Cell cancer because I'm no longer suppressing my immune system. Cannabis seems to be the ideal anti-inflammatory medicine for my UC and may well be immunomodulatory without suppressing my immune system.
