    Concerns with getting medical marijuana card

    I was going to go to the doctors my next paycheck, and tell him i have insomnia, back pains and eating disorders. (which i really do). I've been dealing with them for about a year and have been taking over- the counter drugs.. but their not working well anymore, plus side affects. I've never reported this to my doctor, so do i need piror medical history? Or will he right one anyways? Feedback appeciated.

    Concerns with getting medical marijuana card

    :jointsmile:I am in CA and sorry I am just seeing this! Sure those are reasons to get it. But, states vary as much as people! I first got mine, I had to send all my medical records to the new doc in the box's office. When I went to renew this year, I took a relative that walked in and out with a req and no records. So, it will depend on the doc, as well. More importantly the State you are in! No, not mental state, one of the 50.

    Might want to re-post in the area of your state and see if you get a bite from a local there!

    If you have medical insurance, it wouldn't make sense not to see a doctor for what ails you, anyway. Making up pain isn't necessary when you have it and insominia! and taking OTC crap can hurt your gutt!

    Next thing you need to start growing your own! :rastar

    Insomnia doesn't qualify in CO. Cachexia (rapid weight loss) is a symptom of many eating disorders, and does qualify. Chronic pain certainly qualifies.

    That said, there are dozens of scummy docs who will approve anyone for a few dollars. I agree with the previous poster, though; if you have insurance, go see your primary care physician. Even if he won't recommend MMJ, you can use those records to get approved elsewhere.

    most primary docs will not sign, unfortunately as they fear for their DEA licenses. I hate to even reccomend anyone anymore as the CDPHE may retroactively make them illegal, and my advice bad.

    there is one for $75, a DO, in Boulder on 55th (see Boulder Craigslist health and beauty section) I think he's as legit as you can find now. BUT, before seeing any Doc - YOU, Yourself, should find out his name, and call the CDPHE and ask if there are any problems with that practitioner, or if they plan any upcoming changes that could effect the practitioners eligibility to do recommendations. record the call in case they do change their stance while you are in limbo. Colorado is a 1-party call recording state, so its my understanding you don't need to admit you are doing this to them.

    am I being paranoid? yea I guess I've been waiting for my card since September, not even a denial yet. Looks like I am forced out of the system for 9 months, and I doubt there is any good reason to have a red card now. I *HAVE* to provide for myself or work with the underground.

    Be CAREFUL OUT THERE FOLKS. GET A CAREGIVER. GET SOME LIGHTS, GROW YOUR OWN. YOU CANNOT DEPEND ON THE STATE SYSTEM WITH CARDS AND MMCS IF YOU REALLY NEED MEDS!

    My bro told me if you send your info towards the state and they don't do anything in 1 month u can get paperwork and go into a medical despinsrie and still get stuff. and they'll check if it's denied or it's still wating. and that's the only reason i want a med card is so i can grow

    Concerns with getting medical marijuana card

    none of those conditions counts.

    here are the only conditions for which they will issue you a card.

    Cancer
    Glaucoma
    HIV or AIDS positive
    OR ..

    The patient has a chronic or debilitating disease or medical condition that produces one or more of the
    following and which, in the physicianâ??s professional opinion, may be alleviated by the medical use of
    marijuana.

    Cachexia
    Persistent muscle spasms
    Seizures
    Severe nausea
    Severe pain

    Since the Medical Marijuana Registry Program began in 2001, no new conditions have been added.

    most cards are issued for chronic pain.
