I also use it for my spiritual practices, as it brings me closer to God. Just the other day, a co-worker of mine got fired for testing THC positive and has his cannabis card (*I am not sure if he disclosed the fact that he had his card prior to testing). I've taken a temporary break from my medicine, as i'm concerned and am seeking advice. Do I have any legal grounding for using medicinal cannabis? Apparently the law states that it's the employer's choice to let someone go for testing positive. I also wonder if I could be protected for my spiritual/religious use under the first ammendment? Has this happened to anyone, or can anyone provide advice? I'm in a random testing pool for safety sensitive reasons (unreasonably put in this catigory) but work mostly at the desk as part of a marketing team. Prior to testing, if I disclosed my medical info, would it be treated like any other prescription?\"\n_____________________\nMultiple courts have ruled that an employer can demand a drug free work environement. They can test you for THC or other compounds and, if they are detected, they have cause to fire you with no recourse on your part. The fact that you have a recommendation from HelloMD, or even a state issued cannabis card, does not make a difference.\nAs to using it as part of a religious practise, I would think the same applies. However I am not an attorney so I cannot give you legal advice on this.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD\n_____________________\n \nAdditional points to consider: There are occupations such as truck driving, teaching, and police officer that require their employees to be alert cognitively and physically. Impairment in these types of professions may cause harm to others; therefore it is important to be compliant with not using cannabis at work. When it comes to off-site use, it is best to discuss cannabis policy regarding one’s job with the employer. \n\nLonah NP","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8974-markdown","title":"Downloaded the app and have waited for an Md so I can update my expired license","slug":"downloaded-the-app-and-have-waited-for-an-md-so-i-can-update-my-expired-license","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8973-markdown","title":"do I need a license to buy a tincture?","slug":"do-i-need-a-license-to-buy-a-tincture","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8969-markdown","title":"Can I get a new California Medical Recommendation here?","slug":"can-i-get-a-new-california-medical-recommendation-here","content":"\n_____________________\nHi there!

As an 84 year old she suffers from chronic pain and has been addicted to pain killers, in various forms for the past 20 to 30 years. She recently tested postive for THC and her doctors threatened to stop her prescription of oxycoton should she test positive again in 60 days. Reviewing Wisconsin Act 4 (http://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2017/related/proposals/sb10) it seems she could be a MMJ patient (CBD oil usage) but I'm curious whether or not the provisions would allow HelloMD to assist her or make a referral?\"\n_____________________\nHi there! HelloMD's practitioners are licensed in New York or California, and as such, are not permitted to consult with patients outside of their state of licensure. The good news is that any physician with an active Wisconsin medical license may write a recommendation for the possession and use of CBD for a Wisconsin-based patient.

As of January 1st, 2018 California cannabis consumers will pay a 15% excise tax to retailers, in addition to local taxes. In some communities, it's been estimated these new taxes could increase prices by as much as 70%. Keep in mind that your city's sales and use tax will be waived at the dispensary if you possess a Medical Marijuana Identification Card (MMIC) issued by the California Department of Public Health.
