Take your medicine bottles with you to your appointment, and if you can, a copy of your medical records. Add the cash, and you're set! It will take about 1 hour to get legal.

The cards (so far) are optional. All that is REALLY needed is the note from the doctor. However, if you are a "cop magnet", it might be wise to get one. They can speed up your recognition as a patient, not a partier.

I haven't got one. (a) My county has yet to issue them. (b) I strongly disagree with demanding a fee from the ill for permission to take needed herbal medicine that they grow themselves in many cases. (c) I DO NOT trust my corrupt local government! :wtf: (d) I'm in my 60s and don't look like a cannabis user- my rare interactions with cops are usually because of someone else's troubles. (e) I have heard (but not confirmed) that in some counties, it goes on your driver's license and you are suspected of DUI if you are pulled over (self incrimination?).

There are also "club" cards. These are private, non-government cards, good only at the club/dispensary they are issued at. They do not go into any government data base- unless the DEA raids the club. Then all bets are off! The DEA raids should stop late January (I hope).

And then there's "grow yer own"! When you get your recommendation, BE SURE to have the doctor write on it how many plants you may possess (mature and immature) and how many ounces you may possess at one time. The default "limits were 6 mature plant or 12 immature and 8 ounces of buds (seeds, stems and leaves do not count). Where you find seeds is up to you. I would ask the doctor to change the "or" to an "and", at the least.

And it's WAY more than A study... Here's a couple from Granny's list (link is below in my sig). There are quite a few more if you're interested.
