","slug":"can-i-get-a-medical-card-in-a-state-that-thc-is-not-legally-available","content":"\"I live in SC but have my epileptic, bipolar, ADHD son on CBD and I personally take CBD for both fibromyalgia and vestibular migranes but we travel frequently to states that do allow MM, it would be convenient while we are there to source new products or experiment with treatments. Is obtaining a card possible without an address in a state that has this available?\"\n_____________________\nThis is a great question. This is highly dependent on the state and the laws in each state. Unfortunately, the laws are so different state by state that there is now way to know unless you look up the government regulations for that state. I would also do a back up check in with a dispensary within that state to make sure you do not go through the trouble and find no one will actually sell product to you.\n\nYou may not legally transport MM over state lines, this is illegal in every state.\n\nIn California, you can obtain a medical card as an out of state peron if you have the consultation with the doctor within state lines. That said, some dispensaries will still not serve you without a license. The dispensaries do not always follow the state laws, they often follow what they believe to be the state laws.\n\nI hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11326-markdown","title":"How can I get a Medical card if I live in Missouri","slug":"how-can-i-get-a-medical-card-if-i-live-in-missouri","content":"\n_____________________\nCurrently, the state has it on the ballot to put a medical marijuana program into place in November 2016 which would allow patients with a variety of medical conditions to access marijuana from a regulated dispensary. It looks to be fairly comprehensive and inclusive of many serious conditions, if it is to pass!\n\nTypically, if such a law passes then it takes at least up to a year to put regulations into place, open licensed dispensaries, grow operations, and to educate doctors so that they are willing to recommend cannabis, etc. If you would like to have a medical card and purchase products you would need to travel to either a recreational legal state such as Oregon, Washington or Colorado and ingest cannabis within the states borders or travel to California and receive a medical card and again purchase and ingest within the state's borders.\n\nI hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield\n_____________________\nIt will be a little while before the Dept of Health and Senior Services starts issuing ID cards.\n\nMissouri Medical Marijuana (https://www.medical-marijuana-missouri.com/) will be notifying patients as soon as they can apply for the card.\n\nThe first step will be finding a doctor that reccomends marijuana - also something the site will help with when the time comes.\n\nYour doctor will fill out a form, you will submit that with your application to the Dept of Health, and you will get your card.\n\nHere are 19 Things to Know about Amendment 2 which is responsible for bringing medical marijuana to Missouri: \nhttps://www.medical-marijuana-missouri.com/things-to-know-about-amendment-2/\n\nMissouriMedical","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11324-markdown","title":"How do I get a Medical Marijuana card for a relative with terminal lung cancer","slug":"how-do-i-get-a-medical-marijuana-card-for-a-relative-with-terminal-lung-cancer","content":"\n_____________________\nYou should have your friend create an account with us under his / her name and we can connect them with a doctor. \n\nIf they need assistance, you (or someone else) can offer a 'caregiver' role, which we will provide separate documentation for.

Sleep partners also notice that the patient has less or no jerking while asleep. Not everyone responds to cannabis so the best way to know is to obtain your medical recommendation and try a couple of different varieties of cannabis to see if it helps. Always start with a low dose and gradually increase the amount until you see improvement.\n\ndrfrye","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11300-markdown","title":"I am a 64 yr old man.

I have had \"signs\" that this may be possible but not a complete erection.  Would continued use of medical cannabis (RSO, indica strain vaping, eatables) help me to achieve the ability to be sexual.\"\n_____________________\nSince CBD will reduce any performance anxiety, you may want to add CBD cannabis for daytime use and then use your Indica for sexual activity. CBD may actually help to heal the nerves and that would benefit you also. I would venture to say that you might try some of the topical cannabis designed as a spray for women to increase pleasure but you may want to try it on your penis. Given your age you very likely have had a decline in your HGH level and that affects your ability to function sexually. You could have a 7 AM  IGF-1 serum level measured and ideally it should be close to 200 but if it is under 100 you need support. I have helped a lot of men support their IGF-1 naturally but due to constraints I can't talk about that information here, you would have to contact me outside this website. Do try the cannabis first and you might try interval training to see if it will help your IGF-1 level. \nPlease be certain you have adequate vitamin D blood levels, above 50 ng/ML for optimal results because of vitamin D and CBD cannabis should correct your fibromyalgia as long as you are not taking supplemental calcium, you should get your calcium from vegetables and leafy greens instead. Also, you want them to measure your total and free testosterone levels at 7 AM. You just may need a little hormonal shifting but you should come back to normal.\nIf you have had prostate cancer, that is usually do to high estrogen levels in your prostate or exposure to environmental toxins such as glyphosates. You may want to look into the Wiley protocol for men.\nGood luck but keep us posted on how you're doing if you need additional help, since we are here to help you.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11269-markdown","title":"How do I get a Medical card, as all my doctors are through VA.?","slug":"how-do-i-get-a-medical-card-as-all-my-doctors-are-through-va","content":"\n_____________________\nWe can provide you with a medical card.

Do you know if it will cover these chews?\"\n_____________________\nI researched one pet insurance company and documented my findings below.  Remember – not all pet insurance is alike so be sure to find out about your pet's insurance!\n\nDefinition of a supplement:  “Dietary supplements including vitamins and nutraceuticals that are prescribed by your veterinarian in the treatment of injuries and symptomatic illnesses.”\n\nAs you know, pet insurance is designed to cover medical conditions that are present and need to be treated rather than cover the prevention of medical conditions. \n\n Your pet insurance probably will not cover routine or preventative care like flea/tick prevention, vaccinations, and supplements to prevent the development of a medical condition.   \n\nHowever, if your pet does develop a medical condition, your insurance might cover Treatibles if the following requirements are met:\n\n1)  The supplement is prescribed by a veterinarian\n\n2)  The supplement is dispensed by a veterinarian\n\n“Dispensed” does not mean that the vet must carry Treatibles at their clinic.  You can purchase Treatibles outside of the clinic in the same way that you would purchase other medications.  However, the medical records must indicate that the veterinarian prescribed it.\n\n3)  The supplement is widely manufactured.\n\nGlucosamine is a good example of a “widely manufactured” supplement.  If the supplement is considered “holistic” “naturopathic,” or “herbal,” there is an additional rider that could be purchased to cover those supplements.  \n\nIt is unclear if it would be necessary to purchase an additional rider to cover Treatibles.  The customer service rep I spoke with did not think so, based on what I described.  She thought Treatibles would be covered under the base policy so long as a veterinarian prescribed it.  However, she cannot guarantee this. \n\n4)  the supplement is labeled with the ingredient analysis\n\nThis particular insurance company offers a rider for an additional cost that addresses anxiety.  It is called “Recovery and Complimentary Care.\"  Their other rider covers alternative medicine options such as Hydrotherapy, Post Surgical Physical Therapy, Acupuncture, etc.  If Treatibles isn't covered by the base policy, it might be covered under one of these two riders.\n\nHope that helps!\n\nlisag","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11168-markdown","title":"What medical conditions in my pet can I use this for?","slug":"what-medical-conditions-in-my-pet-can-i-use-this-for","content":"\n_____________________\nWe are not veterinarians and cannot make any health claims about cannabinoids or any of the other ingredients in our products.

That being said, as far as I understand, the TSA is not looking for cannabis specifically, just weapons etc. WHat I have heard is that if they search your carry on bag and find cannabis they may call over the local police and ask them what they want to do. It then depends on the local police to decide what to do with the cannabis and you.\n\nSince you are traveling within California, and assuming that you have a valid recommendation, you should be able to purchase cannabis in  Los Angeles when you arrive and avoid any stress that carrying it may cause you.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11099-markdown","title":"Can I smoke medical marijuana in my CA apartment?","slug":"can-i-smoke-medical-marijuana-in-my-ca-apartment","content":"\n_____________________\nIt depends if your landlord/owner allows it.
