For those who are interested in keeping up with developments concerning marijuana, I recommend this group, http://www.norml.org. Their goal is the legalization of Marijuana / Cannabis at the Federal Government level. They have good up to date information on their site. You can join the organization if you want.

Hi Galib..Thanks for the post http://www.noml.org I came from Oregon (with a Doctors Prescription) from my own doctor and could pick up marijuana 7 days a week. Several forms. I like the oil. I feel so bad for Doxyjune. I take Tramadol, but I try not to take it as frequently as doctor requested. I was also told by her to double my dose. I asked her to rewrite the script increasing the number and she waved it off. So, I have to use it wisely. It is all I have. I did buy Tylonnol and will try that. I see my RA doctor in about three weeks and I am sure she will sign me up for two weeks of Infusion again. THAT really helps. I am seeing a Pain doctor in two weeks. My primary care said for me not to expect any pills. If he cannot inject into my back, he probably will do nothing. I hate to repeat this on here, but she told me that the Pain doctors have finally had the brakes put on. They will more than likely be closing and going into mainstream medicine. I believe they are also qualified as pain mgt during surgery. My Primary doctor said that if he says, I can have a PILL form pain relief, SHE will be disbursing the script. She wants me, as she put it to be honest with her about my pain. She wants my quality of Life to be good, not bad due to pain. I am 76. I doubt I will become a drugee and if I did so what. My mother was in Hospice and they will giving her serious pain meds about every 15 minutes toward the end. I complained to the nurse. She looked at me strange and said. SHE IS DYING. I don't care what the youth has done to ruin our pain management. Most of their parents probably don't even know they use and could care less. This should have been approved for seniors. I am in Remission right now and I am waiting for the other shoe to drop. Have you heard of Kradom? Check it out before it is taken off the market. You don't get it from a doctor. They are private growers. I don't know what country found this drug It grows wild in the rain forest. Once the wealthy found out about it, they surged on the forest to cut it out and bring it home. I saw a special on it about 5 years ago. Just search Kradom on google

@oregongirl I hate these pain shots Just had 2and it took about 3weeks to totally take effect.I called and told nurse she said she left message but never got a call back but know he can't prescribe anything that helps us.So I rely on rubs or Lidocaine patches What are we to do?
