You really have to dig up and read what your state's law says regarding medical marijuana. For instance, in Canada only certain conditions listed in their law are allowed, but in Calfornia the law is written more broadly so it is easier to be recommended in some places. This pretty much allows everyone that can benefit from marijuana the ability to obtain it legally, unfortunately, this has also contributed to its abuse, no different than how easy it is to abuse pharmaceuticals I should add.

Try a google search with your states name, and medical marijuana to look for the law, or tell us which state it is and someone can help you out with that. How hard it is to be legal really depends on how open your doctor is to treating you even with controversial medicines. Even though they are protected by the law, many are still worried to recommend marijuana than they should be. There are medical marijuana specialists as well, which is where I found help for my battle against Crohn's Disease.
