He has prescribed lots of different pain killers to me but none that have the same effect as MJ.

So how do you all bring it up? I'm kind of afraid to for fear that he's wicked anti-weed and will refuse to treat me or something.

Any ideas?
whoa, I read your post just now... Ok, doctors do proscribe MMJ, but you have to find them on the internet. They have real locations in real life, but you have to research it. Norml.org is very helpful. When you find one, just schedule an appointment and be sure to bring documentation of your arthiritis. I apologize for my stupid jerk off post before, I was just tryin' to be funny. It really honestly makes my day a lot brighter to hear about people receiving huge benefits from weed that ISN'T about getting stoooooooned.

That is the key to legalization, its medical properties. I am a medical patient as well, but for post traumatic stress syndrome and multiple personality, both of which are kind of iffy mental diagnoses. they exist, but they aren't as solid as a reason as arthritis. People like you with physical disabilities who work with cannabis, you guys are the ones going down in history for legalization. You are the true power. I am really happy that despite your pain, despite the fear, you fight to get the medicine that you need. It is so easy when you are wounded by something to just give up, because you are already in so much pain. You rock! medical cannabis patients rock! :rastasmoke:
