Yes, it's really bad in Alberta. I was at my neurologist today and we had a very lengthy discussion about how the college is tying his hands even though he would love to be able to sign his patients up. He understands that a natural way of treating yourself is much better than pumping your body full of chemicals. Then he asked me to give him as much info as I have or can find about how Marijuana can benefit people with my condition. It was a great visit to say the least.
Oh, I didn't get rejected by him. I have my license. We were just talking about how it's basically impossible for him to give any new patients their paperwork to sign up. I tried for 6 years to get into the MMAR but was met with rejection by doctors saying they would love to but can't since the college here in AB has been basically instructing doctors to not allow their patients to access MMJ for quite some time now. I eventually wound up going through Greenleaf but unfortunately missed out on the MMAR and had to go into the MMPR. My doctor was very intrigued and asked me to give him all the information I could on Skype clinics and MMJ. He's a very open minded man but unfortunately his hands are tied but now he knows about alternative routes for his patients to get the medicine they want and that he wants to give him. He even showed me some Sativex samples he had and told me he thought it wouldn't compare to the real thing.
This is very true and necessary .Write down his reasons since they are not medical. Also get him to refer you to some other doctor in BC or Ontario. Get as many rejections as you can for non-medical reasons. Have the reasons in writing or record the session and bring your fiend with you to the appointment so 1 other person knows that the conversation is being recorded. This gives you protection later if you have to go to court. It also gives you a basis for your own personal fight later.
This is very true and necessary .
