Hang in there CosmicScorpio,

If your doctor signed off on your paperwork, your medical records speaks for your condition. The cannabis producers are overloaded with patients, and simply cannot keep up with demand being limited to 95 plants. The good news is that there are pending applications with the DOH for new dispensaries, and hopefully they will be approved soon.

The MMJ world is a long strange trip with many ups and downs, like my avatar. When your card arrives by mail, with a list dispensaries that is just the beginning. You are lucky to be in an area where delivery is available and can have it shipped to you. Where I live out in the boonies Portales, its a 4 hour drive, and not worth the cost of the drive for a 1/2 ounce ration.

I applied for and received a grow license, my first crop is maturing and ready for harvest in a few weeks. Until then nothing but politically correct pharmaceuticals are available to deal with the pain from Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Stay positive, and be happy you should have a card in a few weeks.
