Medical Marijuana

Obviously.

Fortunately no, this would be discrimination. As long as you are prescribed a medication by an actual doctor then you are fine. It would be the same as if you were prescribed and antidepressant, pain killer, diabetes medication ect....

I wouldn't say dangerous per se, but you'll be spending lots a time on the couch. There's no interaction problems and the only problems come from the latter three drugs mentioned.

1. riden dirty

You will get into trouble with the federal Drug Enforcement Agency if you try to import marijuana across state lines. Federal laws have not changed, even though some state laws have. Don't try it.

That really depends on how many milligrams each capsule is and how often you take them. The average is 15-30 days or up to 90 days(heavy use every day) for a urine test. But only 12-78 hours for a mouth swab(depending in how young/healthy you are.)

Well California certainly does - I've had mine for years now.

Marijuana is used medically to make drugs such as cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol.

hemp is the leaf of marijuana and the THC is in the buds of the marijuana

Yes you can has to be in a locked area with the card holder only having the key

Lack of motivation, weight gain and short term memory loss. But, this could be a chicken and the eggs sort of situation.

Although in Many cases marijuana can help in medicinal purposes, many people fear that they will be arrested for being in possession of said marijuana

YES!!!! all you need is parental consent, only problem is you got to find a place that will see people under eighteen with a parent, some only see you if you're 18+. GOOD LUCK and if you find a place respond back with the name/ number

* Thats a bit incorrect. In the state of California if you are under 18 and have a mmj treatable condition. are legally emancipated or have a parent/guardians come with you to your evaluation then any place will do. Although most co-ops wont allow entrance if you are under 18 even with a letter of reccomendation and your state issued 420 card.

An Irish doctor, William Brooke O'Shaughnessy, was held mainly responsible for showing his Western colleagues about the healing properties of marijuana. He was an herb professor at the Medical College of Calcutta, and in conducted a marijuana experiment in the 1830s. O'Shaughnessy created preparations and tested animal effects. He continued on to administer this marijuana to patients in order to help treat muscle spasms/stomach cramps or general pain. Cannabis as a medicine became common throughout much of the world by the 19th century. It was used as the primary pain reliever until the invention of aspirin. Modern medical and scientific inquiry began with doctors like O'Shaughnessy and Moreau de Tours, who used it to treat melancholia and migraines, and as a sleeping aid, analgesic and anticonvulsant. By the time the United States banned cannabis in a federal law, the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act, the plant was no longer extremely popular. Skepticism about marijuana arose in response to the bill. The situation was exacerbated by the stereotypes promoted by the media, that the drug was used primarily by Mexican and African immigrants. Later in the century, researchers investigating methods of detecting cannabis intoxication discovered that smoking the drug reduced intraocular pressure. In 1972 Tod H. Mikuriya, M.D. reignited the debate concerning marijuana as medicine when he published "Marijuana Medical Papers." High intraocular pressure causes blindness in glaucoma patients, so many believed that using the drug could prevent blindness in patients. Many Vietnam War veterans also believed that the drug prevented muscle spasms caused by battle-induced spinal injuries. Later medical use has focused primarily on its role in preventing the wasting syndromes and chronic loss of appetite associated with chemotherapy and AIDS, along with a variety of rare muscular and skeletal disorders. Less commonly, cannabis has been used in the treatment of alcoholism and addiction to other drugs such as heroin and the prevention of migraines. In recent years, studies have shown or researchers have speculated that the main chemical in the drug, THC, might help prevent atherosclerosis. Later, in the 1970s, a synthetic version of THC, the primary active ingredient in cannabis, was synthesized to make the drug Marinol. Users reported several problems with Marinol, however, that led many to abandon the pill and resume smoking the plant. Patients complained that the violent nausea associated with chemotherapy made swallowing pills difficult. The effects of smoked cannabis are felt almost immediately, and is therefore easily dosed. Marinol (Jojel), like ingested cannabis, is very psychoactive, and is harder to titrate than smoked cannabis. Marinol has also consistently been more expensive than herbal cannabis. Some studies have indicated that other chemicals in the plant may have a synergistic effect with THC. In addition, during the 1970s and 1980s, six U.S. states' health departments performed studies on the use of medical marijuana. These are widely considered some of the most useful and pioneering studies on the subject. Voters in eight states showed their support for marijuana prescriptions or recommendations given by physicians between 1996 and 1999, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Maine, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington, going against policies of the federal government. In May 2001, "The Chronic Cannabis Use in the Compassionate Investigational New Drug Program: An Examination of Benefits and Adverse Effects of Legal Clinical Cannabis" (Russo, Mathre, Byrne et al) was completed. This three-day examination of major body functions of four of the five living US federal cannabis patients found "mild pulmonary changes" in two patients. On October 7, 2003, a patent (#6,630,507) entitled: "Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and Neuroprotectants" was awarded to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, based on research done at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). This patent claims that cannabinoids are "useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia." Historian Jacob Appel has argued that the medicinal marijuana movement bears striking similarities to the medicinal beer movement of the 1920s. Both efforts attempted to muster medical expertise in the face of a national Prohibition and both pitted the rights of physicians against the authority of the federal government.

Medical marijuana is usually reserved for patients with chronic pain, patients with glaucoma, or those with cancer. A broken femur would not be considered a chronic problem. It is very likely you can get a prescription for oral pain killers after a broken bone, but not marijuana.

Getting a marijuana card is really hard. You will just have to talk to your doctor about it.

No there are no chemicals added, they are all natural.

A limo only requires a CDL is if it's designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver). Therefore, any which doesn't would not fall under CDL regulations. Some states require a chauffeur's license for livery vehicles, taxis, buses designed for 15 persons or less (including the driver)... in those cases, it is the state's determination as to whether or not they'll require the operator to possess a current DOT medical card or not.

The components CBC and d-9-tetrahydrocannabinol have been shown to destroy and inhibit the growth of streptococci and staphylococci bacteria.

You need to involve a good attorney, remember that while state law may permit this, federal law makes it illegal to grow, distribute, possess or use Marijuana.

yes

Yes, you can. Medical marijuana is marijuana-- no difference. It's just that you are taking it as a prescription medication. And the cannabinoids stay in the system for a long time, much longer than it takes to fly from California to Florida.

The debates over medical marijuana and marijuana in general are a huge subject matter. Some of the more pointed arguments against medical marijuana include the fact that it could be abused. If one can get medical marijuana for a condition, how can you keep someone from faking it? Another is that once you start having medical marijuana, you can get addicted to it, which can cause to other issues. There are many arguments and counter-arguments over this issue, and these are just two of the key ones.

This depends on whether the state you're in allows medical marjuana. If the state allows it then chances are the Housing Authority will allow it.
