Ive never heard about that but doctors often do things that arent necessarily illegal but not fully covered. Up here docs were giving recommendations for more than 1 year which isnt truly legal. Im not sure about your exemption, my limits are pretty much the same as yours. We get 6/14 here I beleive. It suck though cus we have a dry, cured limit too, very hard to stay under that and stay legal. I dont have any business with clubs, other than as a customer for far too long.
