i live in pa but im willing to move to a state will legal pot. ive been looking at the laws on normls site and im not sure if i could get approved. and i definately dont wanna move if i cant get that card. see, i have depression, add, and i can get some very bad anxiety related episodes. but all these laws are pretty much life threatening illnesses or something physically worse than i have. but weed replaces the medication i could possibly get like xanex, adoral, shit like that. i have a bad back that i see a chiropractor for but still not totally debilitating. i genuinely use it for medicinal purposes cause without it id be in pain or crazy. and im already considering that past drug abuse and felonies on my record wouldnt help the matter much. and also i dont wanna move way to far. rhode island or vermont would work for me but back to square one, the laws and conditions in order to obtain a medical card seem way too strict. so im just runnin in circles with these fucking ideas. can anybody help me???
i live in michigan they wont give medical marijuana to people with anxiety or depression here,they would rather see you taking prozac and xanax and valium,its dangerous to mix prescription drugs just ask heath ledger,i have been giving thought of moving to california cause lets face it marijuana was made illegal in the first place cause it threatened the cotton industry in the 1930`s yet nobody has ever died from it and we keep seeing people dieing from accidental prescription drug overdoses

Hey All!

Sabud is back in the house
I have not been on this forum in shit i think a year? maybe going on 2...
Well a lot has been going on but i am back.

As a current resident of Nor*Cal (one of the best med MJ regions)
I find my self pondering.
Will Medical Marijuana Docs. Prescribe it to chronic Migraine sufferers?
Because since i have been 12 i have had pounding headaches that dont go away after 5 Advil and a 600mg ibuprofen, hell even 2 vicodins didnt even do anything before. (btw dont be taking that many meds at once)
I never really have gone to my doctor specifically for it, but since i know you cant get a med license without a background history i plan on getting a MRI, whatever blood tests there going to do to check me out, maybe even a CAT scan on my head. More than likely ill check out clear and he will prescribe hardcore Opiates which ehh there ok but nothing kills the pain more than green mother ganja.
So after a while of this history and telling him i dont like overdoing the heavy opiate narcotics and letting them control my life.

Do you think i have good chances of getting a medical marijuana doc recommendation if i mentioned i have tried it to kill the headaches and it works.

Yah its a long post, but i think it would work, but i just dont know how lean they are on prescribing it to people who suffer from chronic migranes. I figure that would be top priority, in the end i could say my back hurts and get it but i think my migranes are a legit reason in the end.

If you can get background history of anything that will fall in category with med. marijuana and find the right doctor defiantly.

Here is my understanding so far (coulple ways): 3 Doctors visits about the reoccuring problem (chronic backpain), after saying your meds are the worst thing for you and that SELF-MEDICATING is best for you; he/she can hook a card. If that doctor doesn't work, drive down the street. OR in my lucky state we have what is called a refferal clinic and they can assist you in getting paperwork lined up to meet with a doctor who has the golden key. I have no idea if a criminal report or a background check are required but I will find out tomorrow and let you know. I know it costs 200 for the refferal and 90 for the doctor more information to come tomorrow....I need a haircut..lol

So, as far as a background check goes, NO there wasn't one ran on me, but they do ask questions about probation/parole. That was from the clinic I went to today. I am seeing a doctor tonight so I can have current medical records of my problem. It was important that I also have past records of my condition to show history of the problem. And its 99 for my doctors visit and my past records should come sometime next week, SO more to come soon. :p

yes don't go to the hospital unless the ambulance takes you...Its a lot cheaper to go to a smaller family urgent care center

Rhode island and Michigan legal now,I hear it rocks out there in R,I.
Texas has it on the books today with a 2009 date in Sept.
Actually, the new Texas law would only allow it to be an excuse is court and for doctors to recomend it. It does not protect from the initial arrest.

Yes it matters, it has to be legal in your state for a doctor/physician to treat you with mmj. Do a google search on Norml and see whats around your area.

Could you please provide the source for the Colorado case law regarding the use of MMJ on probation. Thanks.
