Well, Drs. Denny and Sullivan are sweeties! (Haven't met the other doc.) Dr. Denny looks enough like my hubby to be his brother- lol. Since you have real medical problems, it is very easy! You will sit in the office for a bit- just like any other doc- and be ushered into a exam room. BP will be taken and a quicky physical. You'll get a short lecture and asked if you have any questions, which they will answer. If you think you will need a large amount of cannabis per week, say so, since it is the doctor, not the state, who sets the amount. I'm on record at 3/4 of an ounce per week, while the hubby is allowed one ounce per week. (No way we would use that amount, but it is a nice cushion.)

I don't know about the co-ops- I just grow my own and stay one plant under the 12 mature plants we are allowed. Our locals have been busting "over-enthusiastic" medical growers. The state card is NOT necessary, and I don't trust the state not to turn over my records to the feds (even if I am a "dead end" user). Co-ops and clubs want you to have the card, but is it worth the risk? Get a vaporizer. If you decide to grow, treat it like it was still illegal. Visit treatingyourself.com some day- it's a good medical cannabis site. Hope it goes well with you- Granny:hippy:
