@artscaping @deankmn, @mikecranny, @johnbishop So sorry. I was researching an artist and didn't pay attention. Thanks for covering for me John. And for you, @deankmn I can see that you have a specific agenda and a path to lead the way. My opinion is that the medical cannabis industry has come a long way. Yes, the regulatory program in CA is more developed than that in MN. However, that process was not done in a compassionate manner. After the recreational vote and subsequent implementation, all products had to be recycled for regulatory issues and often repackaged. So for about 6 months, we, as medical clients, suffered inadequate, if any, inventory. Dispensaries in unincorporated areas were driven away and cities immediately tacked on new taxes that made the prices skyrocket. It has settled somewhat now. Keep searching and then keep sharing so that we can learn from you. Have a lovely evening. Chris
@artscaping If one travels to CA and tries to access their system to get some of the various CBD products requiring prescription do you have to have CA doctor prescription or is a MN doctor able to write prescription that is honored in CA? Thanks for this info as due to the unending chase for insurance and doctors in our annual system I am starting with a new doctor soon and I would like to ask him about providing such a prescription.

@deankmn, You no longer need a prescription to purchase any cannabis product in CA…..just have to be 21 years of age with a CA driver's license or approved ID. At least, I think these are the requirements. I am sure you can find out more of the particulars on the CA state website. https://cannabis.ca.gov/cannabis-regulations/
At some dispensaries, if you do seek and receive a physician's referral, you get a discount. Don't quite know why or who is paying who? Hope that helps. Good night. Chris

I live in Canada and have been using CBD oil derived from cannabis for about a year. I have given it a fair try to no avail, but unfortunately don't know if a higher dosage would provide relief because I cannot afford any more than 2 ml per day. This costs me $100 every 20 days at that rate. There are umpteen 'medical cannabis' providers available, but the costs are very similar at this point. There is a movement towards at least partial coverage under the Ontario Health Insurance Plan, and some private insurers are starting as well, but not mine.

Not true for California. We all have access to CBD, hemp is legal in the entire USA. Clean, organically grown, 2 ingredient CBD oil.
www dot hempworx dot com / cbdlebrity I can help you, just message me. CBD has changed my life and it is absolutely NOT a drug, it will not get you high. Just enter "endocannaboid system" into your favorite search engine.

Did you ever get any good results from the salve? I pray you did?????? Lori Renee
My mother in law is a pharmacist, and she brought me CBD oil cream, gummies, and capsules from the Green Roads brand. It’s carried in the small town pharmacy she works in and she swears by it for her own pains. Green Roads doesn’t contain THC, and it is pharmacist formulated. The doses are accurate, compared to CBD items produced in a smoke/vape shop.. I’ve been experimenting with CBD, for my pains from neuropathy, erythromelalgia (EM) and Ocular Migraines. I’ve found a 10mg gummy to help with everyday pain, and it provides mild relief from EM. A 25mg capsule will help with more severe overnight pain and, allow sleep. However, it also makes me groggy the next day. Effectiveness/dosage will vary from person to person, so you have to see what works for you. It is confusing with the number of products out there. I wouldn’t have tried it at all, except I trust my MIL. She’s very smart, ethical, and well informed. Overall, I’m finding some relief, and planning to fine tune the doses/types of products I use. Green Roads carries different oil variants, some which are more helpful with pain/anxiety, etc. Hope this helps.

Have not found a cbd oil that is intense enough to make me feel out of control, so I can drive. I actually wish I knew of a cbd oil that made me feel more "out of it," when I need to just totally chill out because of bad pain. Do you know of one? I drive with pretty bad pain most of the time. That is my life. Lori Renee
@lorirenee1 Do they have a web site to purchase things? Lori Renee
Hello, yes you can purchase from them directly, and they have a wide variety of products. Google these key words all in the same search: Green Roads World CBD. It will bring up their website. I don’t think I can paste a direct link. Best wishes.

Hi Lori Renee, you may want to try actual capsules versus gummies. Green Roads gummies that I’ve tried tend to be either 5mg or 10mg CBD products. The capsules are available as a 25mg dose. Again, you’d have to try it and see what works for you. The main side effect I’ve felt is drowsiness. So, I only take capsules before bedtime. Living with chronic pain is not easy. Good luck on your journey, to a life with less pain.
