This is a long process, I will give you a short answer here though.

First, you need to live in a state that allows the use of medicinal marijuana. You also need to be diagnosed by a doctor with a disease that would warrant the use of medical marijuana. After you have done this the doctor will decide if this treatment is best for you and finally prescribe it if they decide it is necessary. I believe that in most states where the use is allowed that there are certain places you need to go, and generally they will give you an id card saying you are allowed to posses the marijuana for medical reasons along with you marijuana.

To obtain medical marijuana one would first need to be in a state that allows it. Then go to a doctor that prescribes cannabis cards. You need to make an appointment to see one and give them a legit reason why you should have one.

Is weed legal in Virginia?

No marijuana is not allowed in Maryland. There is medical marijuana in Maryland. Added: There is what is called an "affirmative defense" in Maryland for medical marijuana users. This is different than legal medical marijuana. What it means is that if you were to go to court for a marijuana offense, you could bring up medical necessity as a defense. This will only work if you can show an established relationship with a physician who has given their recommendation for use. Good luck with that.
