Altered it depends on the state I think but what was told to me was that I need to have a previous diagnosis from a third party physician of something that the state has ok'd the use the of mmj for. In my case it was depression.......I have a long documented history of it and interestingly enough.....mj has never helped (or hurt) my depression but HAS helped me with a lot of menopausal symptoms which was my main reason for wanting to "go legal." The doctor told me she could really only recommend it for the depression (since it was a previously documented ACCEPTED reason) but hey, if it happened to help with my hormonal crap so much the better.

My hubby uses mmj for insomnia......but does NOT have a documented history of it because he never wanted to take ambien or any of those meds. The PA told him what he would have to do is go to a different doctor and get the diagnosis before they could reccomend it to him. Again....things may be different for different states.
Paper Tiger that's exactly what it is!!! Does make you feel a little more secure though I agree.
I bet you can find a doctor that will look past the stated requirements and give your husband the rec. Or just go run and jump through the hoops!:thumbsup:
