You should definitely move. I am a chronic pain sufferer as well. I live in Portland Oregon. The Marijuana here is amazing and very affordable when compared to the going rate in a non 420 friendly state. Why go to a dealer and get whatever it is they have when you can go to a dispensary and legally have a huge selection of the highest quality herb around or just grow your own. Plus the Pacific Northwest is by far the most beautiful part of the country I've ever lived in. Northern California, Oregon or Washington would be awesome places to move for medical marijuana reasons.
