I'm a paraplegic in almost constant pain. The pain is neuretic, in areas where I have no sensation (except the pain), and nothing seems to help. I've read that marijuana has helped in these situations but my doctors just say it won't work. I haven't smoked sense I was a teenager and now I live in a different state. I wouldn't even know where to look for marijuana here. Plus, I don't want to get ripped off or busted. Medical use marijuana is legal in Virginia but isn't it still illegal under federal law for a doctor to prescribe it?

Any suggestions?
