Nope, haven't found or seen one yet. Just started looking. I have had doing this in my mind for quite a while. After I found I had HCV, I knew there would come a time when I would want to get a card. That time has arrived.

This may be of interest. When I was talking to my mental health councilor, one of the questions she asked was, "how long has it been sense I have taken any drugs, and what kind was it?". I replied marijuana and it's been a couple weeks. I said I did that cause it helps me cope with pain. She acted like it was no big deal. Remember, this person works for the VA.

So to me that is proof that they aren't going to screw with vets self medicating with MMJ.
pepurr Reviewed by pepurr on . VA hospital visit & painful peripheral neuropathy I'm off to see my doctor at the VA hospital today. While there I am going to do some serious complaining about the horrible pain I have been dealing with in my elbow. It's that darn ulnar nerve giving me hell. I don't know what they may want to do about it. I do know that I want it on my medical record. The reason for that is, before I leave there I am going to get a copy of my record. Ulnar nerve problems are also known as painful peripheral neuropathy, one of the conditions covered by our Rating: 5
