For rheumatism? I've heard of it being prescribed for other things.

If memory serves me right an intoxicant can be used if it is prescribed as a bona-fide medicine for treatment and nothing else will work.

I think weed would come under the idea of pain relief. I strongly doubt if it would be considered a bona-fide treatment if that is it's only purpose.
