I asked my pain management Dr if he would object if I tried medical marijuana and he said no. It’s legal in FL, but you must go to a specific doctor who prescribes it. The state must issue a license, so is expensive! Much more than the prescriptions insurance helps pay for. Seems the government could be more helpful if they wanted to help seniors as they say they do.
If your doctor won’t allow you to try it, to reduce your level of misery, I would consider finding another. All the best to you in the new year!
