Anyone with legal knowledge about Medical Marijuana and Probation?

I'm on month 15 of an 18 month probation sentence because of a marijuana-related offense and am thinking about asking a doctor about medical marijuana for back pain and insomnia.

Does anyone know how this works? If a doctor recommends that I use medical marijuana for any reason, can my probation officer tell me I'm not allowed to use the medicine? Is that within his power?

I feel like a doctor telling me using this medicine will make me better should overrule a guy saying "Yeah well you're not allowed to, even if it's legal for medical use" but something tells me it's not that simple.

I'm in the state of Michigan, if that helps.

Thanks for any advice.

Get your Rx and call it a day. Do you need to submit drug tests? If not, I dont see anything to worry about. Im a patient, and also on probation. I dont have a PO to answer to, though. Also live in CA, so im sure our situations are really different
