Signed up for my Medical Marijuana card

[Threegoofs]

With respect, I don't have your predilection, or needs to use drugs. If one looks, one can find the answers, to left ventricular, problems, you by your default settings aren't interested in the answers. No point me even attempting to enlighten you. Knock yourself out, your going to anyway!
I was taught to be a man, and to stand on ones own feet. When I was a baby, I may, I don't know, might of needed a soother, or a dummy, but since being an adult, I find my humanity, my pride, truth honour morality suffices any needs. Drugs not required, or dependant, not ever!

Well, my training is in pharmacology, with an emphasis on cardiovascular pharmacology, so I am fairly interested in the topic.

My predilection is to understand the adverse effects and benefits of drugs, so I can better help patients be treated appropriately.

That all being said...I dont see you providing any answers.

I think it's important to understand that pot is still 100% *illegal* federaly. While you may not get into trouble in PA, be sure not to cross state lines with your pot or buy/own a firearm.

Firearms are legal in PA & I own two: a 12-gauge pump shtgun & a revolver in .22 Magnum. I chose the small calber due to the proximity of nearby houses & my desire not to kill anyone next door if I should ever need to use it. The cops are always5 minutes away.

It's a federal law, not a PA law. Since pot is illegal federally, owning a gun is a federal offense.

"Federal law prohibits medical marijuana users from possessing or buying firearms and ammunition — even if state law allows the drug’s use. An individual can’t have both licenses. Under federal law, any marijuana user is an unlawful user of a controlled substance. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld this rule. Marijuana in any form is illegal under federal law. Users of marijuana are prohibited persons. Checking ‘no’ on question 11(e) on the Form 4473 would be a lie if you use marijuana, which is a federal offense. See this ATF letter on the topic."

If you had any depth on the subject, not that I'm saying I do, you wouldn't ask the question in the first place, the facts, though scant, as there has never been an indepth and impartial study on the subject, are readily available.

Yes I agree your interested in the subject.

I'm not interested the social aspect, of being a drug addict, I've better things to do with my time.

Again... where is ANY evidence that cannabis causes adverse cardiac effects? The BP effect isnt even clear, and thats about the easiest thing to measure in the world.

And we are quite impressed by your insistence that you dont have any interest in drug addiction, although it reminds me of how the biggest anti-smokers are always ex-smokers, or how the most dedicated anti-child porn people, or anti gay people, often turn out to be.... well.... you know.

your post confirms that you are without a humility habit

 

[justabubba]

My dispensary is part of a big chain & I was happily surprised at how clean & efficient their operation is. And for the first time in many years I walked out carrying a 4lb bag of 100% legal pot.

As far as CanPay I saw a map of the country where it is accepted in quite a few states.

I would not expect either operation to be a threat.

4
POUNDS!?

why so much?

buying it all up before the hoarders get it?

your post confirms that you are without a humility habit

Humility :- the quality of having a modest or low view of one's importance:
"he needs the humility to accept that their way may be better"

Habit :- a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that is hard to give up:
"he has an annoying habit of interrupting me"

Yes thank you, I am not reliant on any substances, or the social need to copy poor, pathetic and human weakness outcomes. I try to act like a man, just as I was taught as a child to behave and achieve.
No soother required.

May be, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. The only other person who knows Iown guns is my wife.

Everything in PA is based around your D/L number. When you buy a gun, your D/L info goes to both the states and, I believe, the Feds. When you apply for a MM card, you have to give your D/L number. The state has a very powerful computer system but there was no MM rejection because I had once bought a gun. And as far as the Feds are concerned, I believe you have to present your D/L when you open a bank account or rent a safety deposit box, and that is checked against a data base that could be on the Fed level.

In the PA process you first register online with the PA Dept of Health. Their website form was a bit frustrating & time consuming but I now have my patient number.

Second step is getting approval from a medical doctor. I got a call back from a psychiatrist here in town that I know who is on the list of those authorized to approve these cards. $200 & an office visit & I'll be waiting for my card in the mail.

The list of medical conditions that you have to have in order to qualify for the card includes anxiety. Since I need to stop drinking & am facing a number of medical procedures to have my aorta heart valve replaced, I think I qualify in this category.

This psychiatrist flat out told me on the phone that I'm in. She's the kind of doctor who will write a prescription for damned near anything if you ask for it.

The nearest marijuana dispensary is about a 30 minute drive.

I've been advised to stick to edibles. I hope they are not too expensive.

It's a plant. Grow your own. In 2006 I made the decision to stop drinking, but the agreement (I made with myself) allowed me to use cannabis. No alcohol since then and I still have my job, my family and my life. Good luck.
P.S. If I can grow it, anyone can.

 

[mrjurrs]

You can always grow your own for fun and profit...

Profit makes it a crime. You can give it away though.

 

[mrjurrs]

and btw, Kamala Harris said they plan to legalize it federally ...

First step is to remove it from Schedule 1.

 

[mrjurrs]

Wife & I are retired & own our house & are on Medicare. I have all the guns I need for self protection: shotgun & revolver.

Hoping NJ votes to legalize it as I am not looking forward to making cannabibrownies. It is only a 30 minute drive to cross the Delaware into NJ. The capsules relax you etc. but don't get you high. My pending heart valve operation precludes me from smoking weed.

Here is something else to consider. The 'entourage' effect refers to the concept that there are a thousand strains and each one is slightly different. There are also over 7 billion different endocannibinoid systems on the planet. Effectively this means that cannabis effects people differently. Trust your budtender, ask a lot of questions and if you don't like the first experience there are lots of other options. Good luck.

As stated, soother, none required in this quarter, I can stand on my own feet on my own cognisance! No drug required!

I don't smoke and very seldom drink.
But, I'm only feeding you ..... to allow you to use the well worn mantra .... drink is bad, cigarettes are bad, dope isn't so bad..... but you are on the inside looking out, not like me on the outside looking in!
Junkies on whacky need to video their behaviour, it certainly isn't natural! And look at the video, when not high! They then might see what the rest of us see!

By owning 2 firearms you are committing 2 felonies. Have fun with that.

Aye.... see I could read your mind!

Junkies all need to excuse there behaviour in there own minds to justify this action. But did you notice your words, the reaction to various brands?
A mind alternating drug.... and you cannot understand its repercussions, to you, as you are on the inside looking out!
You actually suggested giving it away! If you gave it to my children, you would only be able to do this once in your entire life!
Isn't it interesting in Iraq, Iran Pakistan, this is growing at the side of the road, and families would disown there own family if they acted in the same manner your behaviour dictates. And very few junkies in these countries!
And they say they are envious of the American way of life..... maybe this understanding is a drug induced lobotomy!
When I was in Cyprus, the American forces came through to clear Suez of mines, a cable was sent through the US military to request information, if drugs were freely available..... as the American forces couldn't operate without it!
I worked in a care home for those that had left carstairs, a sanatorium for the criminally insane. We were getting less and less of these people and getting more and more of young people who thought like you and acted like you! Various mental illnesses, paranoia being the main one..... when you open the box, there is no closing it!
The human brain stops developing at about 24 years old, prior to this, any drug can influence your development.
Really..... give it away?

I'd ask for citation.... But it would be a waste of time.

You are only inhaling cannabinoids including THC + terpenes that give pot its aroma. When smoking you are inhaling smoke which is a) hot and b) contains possible harmful chemicals.

Nooooo. THis isn’t totally accurate. Vape producing companies use chemicals to recreate the odor and taste. Vaping is marginally better than smoking because you aren’t burning the plant BUT: inhaling anything but oxygen into your lungs is not optimal. IT’s a vice after all.

Personally, I find vapes to be so much harsher than good weed.
