However if the aciencies find out they will drop your coverage, so it may not be worth the risk to most. My doctor didn't bat an eye and he certainly knows my history. I am a baby boomer so it is not like I didn't know about it in the past, but as an adult, it is quite a choice to make knowing how the law feels about it. I am still given my medications, and trust was not hurt with my physician as I told him the truth. Be careful out there to whom ever decides to participate. The laws are not good in these backward states. I would hate to be disabled, missing my 11 medications stuck in jail. That would be the ultimate bummer. Take care all of you. Ginniethere use to be a law of compassion in some states
Let's face it, our entire country is backward when it comes to treating pain. I live in a state in which it is legal to use Marijuana but I can't afford it and since I use the VA I can't get a script from them. I'm sick of the DEA dictating MY pain treatment. I've heard from many people that Marijuana does help with some types of pain. All you can do is try it.
