Hey, I have just found out that I have OSA "obstructive sleep apnea" I think that's how you spell it but I don't remember I am baked on PPP but I just wanted to know if I can get a med card for that?

Sleep apnea is a condition that is treatable with cannabis- there even was a couple of studies!

Would I be able to go through kaiser insurance on that card so i don't have to pay that much or should i just go to the dispensary by my house and see if i can get a card there?

i suggest you go to a medical cannabis physician to get a recommendation. remember, when you show up at a dispensary, they have to verify your prescription, so make sure the doctor you go to has a good verification service.
