Hi everyone not sure if this is the right place to do this but I want some opinons. I hurt myself at my job over a month ago and I still never got my medical card for marijuana. My fault I just kept saying I'll get it soon. Now Im dam near broke, but the good new is workers comp is going to be sending me a check soon. So here is the big question. Does anyone know if I apply for my card, ans send money to the state will that in any way screw it up for me while on workers comp? I also have surgery set up, and would not want to screw that up either. I got a slipped disk and it hurts, and these pain killers suck!!!! The only reason Im asking is pothead said the laws may change the 7th and I wouldn't want to miss out. :wall:

All the more reason for you to get it done Now. Plus its a few month wait for the actual plastic.

It will have nothing to do with your workers comp. Which is what your main question was, I think.

yah thats it, just dont want to screw it up!! with all the drugs they gave me for pain sometimes i dont make sense to myself lol
 
what happens when the insurance company shows up for a piss test, written into every business/workmans comp. policies?
They have the right to piss test you as long as you are being paid and I imagine that a positive for THC wouldnt help you very much.

Better get real familiar with synthetic urine real fast. Actually, I guess I'm jumping to conclusions since he didn't actually say that he's smoking yet so maybe we learned him something that may save his job and livelihood.

From the sound of it. I dont think hes even smoking right now, hint the Pain Pills.

So you should be fine to pass the test. If there is one.

I am on so many pills for the pain if I smoke, I'll be smoked lol. I can pass right now i've been hurt over a month now. Just worried if i get the card if they will try and use that against me. In some of the paperwork they ask all the medication I am taking. They pay for all the medications and mileage to and from the clinic and the surgery. I'm suppose to report everything im taking . I think i might just be paranoid but its a concern. I will have the money to get it before the 7th. I guess i could get it and if it gets brought up just tell them that it is for after i return to work. Not sure. I want to be legal. I guess either way i would have no problem doing it after I return to work since I am going to have back pain when this is all done and documeted very well. I have copies of the mri x rays and all the paperwork so I guess either way I would have no problem proving the artheritis. Anyways thanks for the responses I love this site so much information on here I have learned a lot about growing.
