Needless to say, it must help my pain if it helps me to sleep. On a negative note, here in VA we are not a State/Commonwealth that has a legal medical marijuana law on the books so I am unable to do this legally.  |

"SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Scope of prescription for marijuana for medical purposes. Provides that no person shall be prosecuted for the possession of marijuana or tetrahydrocannabinol when that possession occurs pursuant to a valid prescription issued by a medical doctor in the course of his professional practice. The bill also provides that no medical doctor or pharmacist shall be prosecuted for dispensing or distributing marijuana or tetrahydrocannabinol for medical purposes when such action occurs in the course of his professional practice. Currently medical marijuana can only be prescribed for cancer and glaucoma."
I'm also a virginia residence. Dig a little deeper to see if it truly only applies to cancer and glaucoma patients.
