Hypoxia and Medicine

could i get medical marijuana for the problems i have?

i have insomnia,chronic back problems also really bad constant headaches,i have a stomach ulser and medium depression i can not take pills as i gag on them,i have been to the doctors and they keep telling me to take asprin for my headaches back and ulser,i have not confronted them about the option of medicinal marijuana but i want to know if these conditions will permit me to get a perscription in the state of california...to allow me to smoke,i have tried many other options with the pain and the only thing that seems to work effectively is marijuana..

1. dude.... oxycontin is SOOOO much better
2. ha. good luck. sounds like a pretty good story to me.
3. Let me guess, you're on disability too?
4. It depends on who your doctor is. Some docs are way cool (just about any excuse will do) some aren't so cool.
5. I doubt it. Here in California they are so very strict with the laws on that. It is pretty much you have to be dying of cancer in order to get a doctor to prescribe it. I suggest you look around at the natural food store because often they have things in liquid and powder forms that you can take for all yoru symptoms. I would ask.
6. Aside form ulcers, your symptoms sound like withdrawal. So yeah, smoking marijuana will take that away. I do not know the requirements for medical use though.
7. no i dont think that will they only give that to people who are dying to ease their pain ex people with cancer. they should give you some perscription pain medicine i would find anther doctor who can give you some stronger perscription pain medicine. or take a pain management class they teach you how to deal with the pain and give you medicine but if you get in that program they are strict and you better take your meds like you are supposed too. GOOD LUCK.
8. Well from what I heard no.
9. First off, California law states that a doctor can write you a scrip for cannabis for anything he feels it will help. The law's pretty lenient. Secondly, you need to find a new doctor if yours is prescribing aspirin for an ulcer. (Or perhaps you've just chosen a random set of theoretical medical issues thinking pot would help one or more??) Thirdly, you are lucky to live in CA!! Check out a local dispensary and they can probably steer you in the right direction for a med card and prescription.
10. I have no idea, but I would suggest a better alternative like a pain medicine or/and other therapies. You may want to look into a spinal cord stimulator (scs) it could be something that could really help you out, you can get more info about scs's at www.ans-medical.com My scs has helped so much with my chronic pain!
