I'm looking into getting my medical marijuana card. The meds for pain I get just don't work. Lots of people say it's the way to go for pain relief. I have never used MJ so it's completely new to me. What are your thoughts good and bad?

give it a try...I've heard it is much better than opioids and less addictive...

I personally get too paranoid so I can't use it...

I need to get a couple things straight. I can't take a narcotic. I can't take THC. I have a commercial driver's license and I drive a company pickup truck. We take random drug tests. I understand that CBD is a very good drug. I also understand that THC with CBD improves the effect of the CBD. Getting this card would be a major risk. Career-ending if I got in an accident. I can get around random drug tests, I can always send someone else.

I need relief from fibromyalgia. I've tried everything on the market. It's really starting to wear me down. It's just about the only thing I haven't tried.

Big Chief had a doctor that gave him the medical marijuana pamphlet. I told him to get it what the hell do you have to lose?

It's kind of scary when your family doctor gives you the information for medical marijuana. Is my doctor giving up is what I thought to myself. just about every other doctor has given up because every drug on the market they've tried on me. If a pill doesn't make you feel better nowadays the doctors don't know what to do.
Kind of freaked me out a little bit.

Try CBD. You will not pop on a random urinalysis for CBD and it doesn't impair you.

CBD(-95) is a boiler water treatment chemical in my world. I wouldn't recommend taking it. Death by descaler does not sound fun.

Mike, are you positive that the DMV can't cross check you in the other state databases to find out you have a medical card?

THC and machines don't mix. Could tell you stories, but we all have them. The names and machines change, The injuries don't.

Any chance you can take some timeoff?
You will course need to find a reliable source for CBD only medicine.
I don't care what others say, I know for a fact that for MANY auto immune conditions, and a host of other chronic ailments, MM is a life changer.

But as noted, the dang CDL makes it so complicated and risky.
Getting some time off to try it is the route I would take as a first step.

Then, if you find it works well enough to consider it, take another week or so off down the road, take the medicine and figure out a way to get yourself "tested"..........not officially of course, but tested to see what results look like.

Good luck.
Food allergies is slowly gaining traction as a possible cause for your condition.....just FYI.

Hello friend... Smoking pot is fun and can definitely provide some amount of pain relief...

Have you tried just CBD yet? No need to mix in thc get unless you know CBD alone won't cut it... You can't fail a drug test from CBD so it seems risk free...

Hemp derived cbd is popular in az but it's weak...

Full spectrum CBD is great but it contains trace thc and could get you in some trouble for possessing it, but again, you won't fail a drug test or get high...

CBD isolate (I highly recommend bhang products if you can get them) contain no thc, but because it's derived from marijuana instead of hemp, it gets treated differently out there in terms of possession...

The CBD isolate is your best bet for pain management and you have no fear of a failed drug test... There's no upper limit, so go crazy... Tons of options for how to take it...

Good luck, hope you get some relief...

King I was tested for food allergies. I don't have any food allergies but I do have medication allergies. I've heard that CBD works the best with just a hint of THC. I guess I'll know after my appointment on the 21st

It feels better with thc, but I've used it on its own plenty... I think the big difference is in hemp-derived vs marijuana-derived...

If isolate has no effect, then I'd try full spectrum... If that doesn't do it, then try pot, and then concentrates... Unless, of course, you just really wanna get high... Which is what it sounds like... I dig it... Maybe look for work as a bud tender?

COOP!!!

GO EASY...TREAD LIGHT...

soooooo many things to think about.
*Your CDL
*WILL IT WORK
*LOSING YOUR CDL AND INCOME
*LOSING ALL GUN OWNERSHIP RIGHTS ( and believe me,
A MED MAR CARD in N.O.T. worth losing all your guns over) not sure if you can transfer your guns to your wife?
( many if not all states require this but many never tell you until a nosey cop Gets up into your business for a totally unrelated infraction of some sort..,like a traffic violation, noise ordinance complaint, jealous neighbor complains about you....then over zealous young or old cops will delve into your entire life once they know you have a MMC , then get a search warrant to confiscate ALL YOUR GUNS and make your life a LIVING nightmare!!)

I have been in intense PAIN! SINCE APRIL 1, 2018 just days after what I called "the GOOD FRIDAY OR EASTER AMBUSH"
1/4 -1/2 MILE FROM MY CABIN...over 300 shots , 5-6 different calibers in 2-3 minutes....it was so close to me cutting wood , I ducked and hit the dirt...after those few minutes...
Silence...
Then two different SCREAMING human voices...then ...
pop pop
And pop pop ...again...THEN TOTAL silence...

6-8 SSG AGENTS OR HIRED REDNECK LOOKING ASSASSINS (I saw 2 hours before , blocking my jeep on a small country road for over a minute giving me death stares and would not get out of my way while my girlfriend and me were in my JEEP w/ a sawed off 12ga pump ready to rock and roll...but they finally moved)...

The following Monday ...

I COULD NOT WALK!!! EARS RANG LIKE A S.O.B...
INTENSE PAIN LEVELS" 6-10" FOR 3+ MONTHS...
EATING MOTRIN AND TYLENOL, TAKING OLD DENTAL OXY SCRIPTS I'd saved up for back pain...drinking to kill the pain...
I still have bad pain...muscle and joint pain, fluid filled knees, wrists can barely bend...thighs sore...
4 doctors / specialist A.L.L. totally STUMPED...8-12? BLOOD TESTS , Lyme negative, gout negative, arthritis negative ....

I'm NOT STUMPED AT ALL... I AM BEING E.M.R.'d and MICROWAVED BY THE FBI-SSG everyday since that ambush described above^^^ Those sick murdering law dogs weren't expecting my "ghillie suited Truman Ghost buddies" in the woods near my cabin...and they lost many agents..never on the news, never reported...just like it "never happened"...
BUT IT DID H.A.P.P.E.N. and IN SPADES for those killers....

Now they pay my neighbors in cash to microwave my sorry ASS and there is NO CURE TO MICROWAVE persecution,
Thousands of Targeted Individuals are going through the EXACT same thing I am everyday ....
all over this country...

I hope you get relief through CBD OIL...OVER THE COUNTER AND LEGAL

DO NOT GET AN "M.M.C.", IS MY ADVICE

Coop, I use Charlotte's Web hemp extract, but it's not suppose to contain any THC. When I had the torn ligaments and cracked knee cap a few months back, the hemp extract helped when opioids wouldn't. Just be careful when buying CBD and find a reputable tested brand. The FDA tested a bunch of CBD oils a few years back, and many of them contained no CBD, or only a trace amount.

You're not a dumbass, Cooper. You know damn good and well what happens if you get popped with an MMC. I don't know **** about any CBD and it's too bad you can't smoke weed but you just can't. I got some Kratom I've been meaning to try for minor aches and pains but I keep forgetting I have it.
