Hi Honey, this is Granny giving you honest advice. First go to your regular doctor and get a copy of your medical records. Next go to Norml's web site for California and check their list. My doctor charges about $200 for the first recommendation and $150 for the yearly renewal. You walk in with your records, get a quick physical, pay the nice doctor and get your recommendation. If you have LEGITIMATE health problems, it's that easy!

I strongly recommend that you get a vaporizer if you decide to smoke. Smoking or vaping gives you much faster relief and it is easier to judge your dosage (as opposed to eating). Vaping is much healthier than actual smoking. The little "box" types (Vapor Brother's, etc) are good and run you about 1/3 the price of the top-of-the-line Volcano vaporizers.

Doctors are prohibited from "narking" on you when you tell them you use cannabis. Likewise, they are protected from federal prosecution for recommending pot.

If you decide to grow, act like it's still illegal- DON"T TELL ANYONE! Growing your own meds is a great hobby!

Tolerance isn't a HUGE problem, it does happen, but it's not like opiates where you will need ever increasing doses (with the attendant side effects). If you find you are using more than you want to, take a week's break and all is good once more!

I think you'll find that pot is just what the doctor ordered!
Storm Crow Reviewed by Storm Crow on . Just learning about med. marijuana, and need help with everything Hello, This is my first post, and what I wanted to know is what would work better for stomach pain (pain believed to be caused by eosinophilic gastroenteritis) It has been ongoing for about two years now, and they have had me on Hydrocodone with Apap, and as i was building a tolerance, they made me take higher doses, so finally, after taking it everyday for almost a year, they listen to me when i say it doesnt work anymore, and it just makes me feel like garbage. So I told my doctor to refuse Rating: 5
