","slug":"why-is-it-so-difficult-to-find-high-cbd-low-thc-products-for-medical-use","content":"\"Will this become more of a problem when rec occurs in NV? (It has in Oregon.)\"\n_____________________\nI suspect the reason high CBD with low THC is difficult to find because it is so popular right now, the products can sell out quickly but it could be that the growers and manufacturers in your area may not realize there is a desire for the products in your area. Did you ask for help in the Dispensary to find the products?\nThe CBD tinctures, since this is plant material without preservatives, the products are typically refrigerated so you must ask for help to find these products.\nThe high CBD low THC vape pens and refill cartridges are typically displayed in a display case.\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nHigh CBD, low THC strains are difficult to grow and consume a lot of time and energy to grow indoors. Strains like AC/DC have a 15 week veg cycle. Since it's not as popular as high THC strains, it is not as cost effective and expensive for the patient.\n\nThis is a litmus test for true Non-profit Collectives. If your collective does not carry quality CBD products, then they may not have your medical needs in mind.  The Collectives I frequent, like Bat Buds Fresno and House of Wax, consider my medical needs  parimount.

That said the regulations have not been finalized. It seems there will be a limitation for prescribing doctors as they will need to go through a training course before they can give a recommendation. The article I read indicated this may be avilable in the late fall of this yeat. It will be a 3 part process:\n\n1. Find and see a doctor who is able to give a recommendation\n2. Register with the state (how long does this take? It differs state by state)\n3. Once registered you will receive documentation and can go to a state-permitted dispensary\n\nI always find the the Norml site as they stay up to date on all the laws state by state. Their site with Pennsylvania's laws are here:\n\nhttp://norml.org/laws/item/pennsylvania-penalties-2\n\nUnfortunately, they do not state anything regarding recommendations. \n\nI hope this helps!\n\npamelahadfield\n_____________________\nThe good news is that Pennsylvania passed a medical marijuana law in 2016; the bad news is that it has not yet taken effect.\n\nYou will need to obtain a medical recommendation from a physician that confirms you have one of these qualifying conditions:\n-Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS; also known as Lou Gehrig's disease)\n-Autism\n-Cancer\n-Crohn's disease\n-Epilepsy\n-Glaucoma\n-HIV/AIDS\n-Huntington's disease\n-Inflammatory bowel disease\n-Intractable seizures\n-Intractable spasticity\n-Multiple Sclerosis (MS)\n-Neuropathies\n-Parkinson's disease\n-Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)\n-Sickle cell anemia\n-Severe chronic or intractable pain\n-Terminal illness (defined as 12 months or fewer to live)\n\nPatients will be able to have a 30 day supply of medical marijuana, but it may only take the form of cannabis-infused oils, topical ointments, tinctures or liquids. Home cultivation of cannabis will not be permitted. Currently, as many as 50 state-licensed dispensaries may operate, however not are open at this time. Pennsylvania will have reciprocity with other states, meaning that if you legally obtained a medical marijuana recommendation in another state, they will recognize that in PA.\n\nashleigh","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10067-markdown","title":"Is marijuana good for tension headaches?","slug":"is-marijuana-good-for-tension-headaches","content":"\"What type of marijuana product should I use and how often?\"\n_____________________\nYes, cannabis can be an excellent medication for tension headaches but if you do not deal with the origin of the tension, your symptoms could manifest as a bigger medical problem later. \nConsider using the topical CBD dominant salve on your neck or anywhere you feel the muscles are tense and you can reapply the salve every 10 minutes until the pain resolves.\nThere is a CBD dominant 4: 1, spray in the mouth tincture, that should help with a headache or you may want to vaporize a CBD dominant vape pen, such is AC/DC, since it will be in your bloodstream in 1 to 2 minutes giving you relief in approximately 10 minutes.\nI think tension headaches respond well to a daily use of CBD's because you learn to deal with stress much better using CBD Cannabis. At first you must dose CBD's frequently to get rid of the symptoms and then you can start spacing out the frequency of dosing your CBD's, because if you only take one dose of CBDs per 24 hours, you may be imprinting your nerves that you want the pain to return, so please, treat your symptoms frequently to get the pain under control before you start to space out your CBD dose. Too much THC may increase pain especially if due to tension. \nThe following book may be of great benefit to learn to live in present moment :\nI also encourage Reading the book or listening to the audiotape, Eckhart Tolle, 'The Power of Now' to get in present moment since present moment is the only time we experience joy.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10039-markdown","title":"How do you get a medical marijuana card in Maryland?","slug":"how-do-you-get-a-medical-marijuana-card-in-maryland","content":"\"Can I get it online?\"\n_____________________\nMaryland's medical marijuana program was signed into law in 2014; but it is not yet operational.

","slug":"how-do-you-make-cannabis-suppositories-and-or-topical-creams-from-medical-oil-concentrate","content":"\"I'd love to hear your experiences with making your own marijuana preparations.\"\n_____________________\nI have used this recipe before:\nUsing cannabis oil suppositories with the same dosage amounts as oral ingestion is another way that cannabis oil can be taken to treat cancer. Some people believe suppositories may get cannabis oil into your bloodstream better than orally taking the oil. To make a batch of cannabis oil suppositories you would want to start with 100 grams of cocoa butter for every 1-2 grams of cannabis oil. (YOU CAN CLICK HERE TO GET COCOA BUTTER) First you will need to melt your cocoa butter. This can be easily done by putting the cocoa butter in a stainless container and use a gentle heating device like a candle warmer to melt it.  Next add your cannabis oil to the melted cocoa butter while on the heating device. Stir the melted cocoa butter/cannabis oil mixture together so that the oil is evenly mixed throughout. Next you pour the warm mixture into suppository molds that can be purchased online.  Let them cool at room temperature. You want to start with 1-2 grams of cannabis oil per 100 grams of cocoa butter. This is a good starting point so the suppositories are not too strong. You can then increase the cannabis oil according to how much the patient needs or can tolerate. You will work towards being able to take as much oil per suppository as you would take orally.  Cannabis oil suppositories can be used when the cancer is in the lower part of the body like the bowel, prostate or anus.  Getting the oil as close to the cancer as possible is a great idea.\n\nPiantaTinta","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10025-markdown","title":"Looking for the best CBD (non-psychoactive) oil I can buy, for medical issues.

Find a registered practitioner. In New York, only doctors and licensed nurse practitioners that are registered with the state's medical marijuana program can issue cannabis certifications.\n\n2. Have a qualifying condition. Only patients with one of these serious, debilitating, or life-threatening conditions may qualify for medical marijuana: cancer, HIV-positive or AIDS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), damage to the nervous tissue of the spinal cord with objective neurological indication of intractable spasticity, epilepsy, inflammatory bowel disease (IBS), neuropathy, chronic pain as defined by 10 NYCRR ss 1004.2(a)(i)(xi), or Huntington's disease. Patients must also have one of the following associated or complicating conditions: cachexia (wasting syndrome), severe or chronic pain, severe nausea, seizures, or severe or persistent muscle spasms.\n\n3. Register. Once certified by a registered practitioner that you qualify for a medical marijuana certification, you need to register on the New York State Medical Marijuana Program's website. You'll need to provide proof your identity and residency. Once your registration is processed, you will be mailed a registry identification card. \n\nOnce you have completed these steps, you will be able to visit a registered marijuana dispensing facility to purchase medical marijuana products. \n\nIt's important to note that New York does not accept medical marijuana certifications or recommendations from other states.\n\nashleigh\n_____________________\nIn NYS, you must have one of the 11 qualifying conditions to be approved for a medical marijuana recommendation.  You must then be certified by a registered medical marijuana practitioner. Upon certification, you must login to https://my.ny.gov/ and click on the \"Health Applications\" icon and then click on the \"Medical Marijuana Data Management System\" link to register. Patients who do not have a ny.gov account will need to click the \"Don't Have An Account\" button to create a personal ny.gov ID before proceeding. Patients will be required to provide proof of their identity and residency during the application process. Required documents can be found on the NYDOH website.\n\nwendynp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9994-markdown","title":"I Do you have plans to open an operation in Florida similar to the one in Ca ?","slug":"i-do-you-have-plans-to-open-an-operation-in-florida-similar-to-the-one-in-ca","content":"","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":264,"numPages":41,"currentPage":23,"id":5495,"name":"Medicinal Cannabis","slug":"medicinal-cannabis","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
