SF Bay area chronic pain sufferer in need of serious help!

[sfstreetphotography]

Hello everyone at cannabis.com, I am in need of some serious help in the SF bay area. I have suffered from chronic pain due to migraines since I was a kid, and have been self-medicating w/cannabis since I was 16 yrs old, I am now 21yrs old. I have plenty of medical history due to headache pain, even a catscan. Now this is my problem, I want to stop being a criminal, and I want to get medical. I can't keep on risking getting arrested just to medicate w/ marijuana when a migraine occurs. My main question is how I can obtain medical marijuana to treat my pain. Is it possible for me? I hope I can, it is the only thing that works for me. Any info regarding this subject in the sf bay area would be highly appreciated. By the way, I live in the south bay area. thanks:)

It is QUITE simple to get a recommendation for migraines! I presume that you have seen your doctor for them. Get a copy of your medical records- just ask! They are YOUR records. Now go to Norml's California site. They have an extensive list of cannabis specialists. You should be able to find one near you easily. Get about $100 to $250 together, make your appointment and take your records. You'll get an exam and a short lecture, then pay the doctor who gives you a written recommendation. That's it! You're "legal". I had a traumatic childhood head injury that resulted in migraines. Got my recommendation with no trouble. As long as you have medical records documenting a real medical problem, the doctor will give you a recommendation- some of the clinics are less picky than others.- Granny:hippy:

I hope Storm Crow's advice helped. As someone who uses marijuana recreationally and medically (headaches and back pain, yes back pain, at 17 years old... terrible.) I understand your need, and although I have not been able to receive my license for medical use yet I do not mind because I use it for non medical reasons as well.
