    I am under 18, I don't know if you need to be older or not, but i think i could possibly qualify when im of age. My freshman year i got a terrible back injury, i missed the entire second semester of school, my doctor straight up said "you cant go to school this is too severe" and she did all the work with the school for me. But anyway, i did months and months of the physical therapy and it didnt help much so i had 2 options, surgery that works 40% of the time or receive yearly injections of steroids directly into a sack at the base of your spine that holds nuerological fluid. anyway, these shots hurts like a mother fuckin bitch, and i have had to get them every year since i was 15. Does anyone know about the age thing though, or if this would be a legit reason? I read in a last post that if it begins helping you in pain relief before you feel high then it is definitely good for you, but yes it takes longer than that for me unless im smoking this white widow i got lol.

    Well for pretty much any prescription drug there is no age limit but most require parent consent so if you're parents are cool with it talk to your doctor

    I'd think you'd be prescribed some hardcore painkillers, not medical marijuana, but i could be wrong

    that is something i am not sure about, i had a soma prescription and some other stuff to test, but it made no difference in the pain. i do feel at ease when i smoke, and i can lay down with relaxed muscles, if im not smoking, i always have to flex my back to keep the bones in place without it rubbing my nerves. it takes forever to go to sleep when im not high cuz i have to find such a perfect position it just takes forever and sucks

    just find a doctor that will prescribe you marijauna. if you live in the l.a, california area its 1(877)Gotkush to get a recommendation for med. mj. if you live in north cal its even easier. good luck

    i live in az, i have had immense trouble in finding the laws here... :( maybe i need to find out a doctor here, can it be any doctor?

    maybe someone could even just like tell me the steps to get it, i know that in az, i need a slip of paper saying i could benefit from the marijuana, and they need to sign and write their doctor number or something, then in az i guess they have to have a second opinion, thats all i know lol

    Arizona NORML might be able to connect you with a doctor.
