How do I find a Medical Marijuana Doctor?

Use Google to search for a local Medical Marijuana Doctor.  These types of Doctors are not located in every State within The United States.  If you are located in another county, use the most popular search engine of your country to search for a Medical Marijuana Doctor.  In the United States, there are some directories showing Medical Marijuana Doctors and this may be a good way for you to find your Medical Marijuana Doctor.  After you find your Doctor, you will be able to get your medical card.  Then, you can register in a location similar to the Medical Marijuana Registry here for Colorado.

How old do I need to be to buy Medical Marijuana?
In many locations, you need to be 21 years old. In Colorado, you can be 18 to get a Medical Marijuana card. Ironically, recreational sales require the individual to be 21.

If you do have it and have the amount the state allows, this helps you from not getting arrested by the authorities.

Is it better to have Sativa or Indica?
Sativa or Indica is a question that is occurring more regularly with the introduction of medical marijuana dispensaries.  The reason is because the options are so readily available.  This is a question you need to work with your local professional about based on your symptoms.  An example, if you are looking to sleep at night, for most people a sativa will not be the best choice and an Indica is wiser.  If you are experience muscle pain, you may want to explore an Indica.  There are also hybrids which is a combination of an indica and sativa.  Please be sure to consult with your local professional at your local dispensary.

How many marijuana plants can I grow at my house?
The amount of marijuana plants you can grow at your house depends on the state you live in.  Each state that allows you to grow marijuana at your house has different rules and standards.  You may need a medical marijuana license to grow marijuana at your house.  Make sure you comply with the state limit.  For example, in Colorado there are specific rules related to how many plants you can grow if there are people under 21 living in your house versus 21 and over.  Also, please make sure to understand not just the state law, but also the local law.  Sometimes, the local government will have additional grow law in conjunction with state grow laws.  If you do not comply with state and local law, and you are caught by the authorities, you are subject to being arrested.  Frequently asked medical marijuana questions are important insofar as fully understanding your rights as a current, past or future medical marijuana user.  We hope found this answer helpful which is located  on our Frequently Asked Medical Marijuana Questions page.

Can I use marijuana with a pacemaker?
First, it is our absolute recommendation that you consult with your cardiologist about this question.  We do not in any way condone the usage of marijuana with a pacemaker prior to your consultation and advice from your physician.  If you’re cardiologist does allow you the opportunity to use marijuana while you have a pacemaker in your body, we would recommend starting with a 100% CBD product.  In fact, to be fully safe, we would suggest using a topical form of CBD to start.  Start slow and increase dosage as needed.  The issue we see and why we recommend consolation with your provider is based on the idea that THC can adjust the rate of your heart.  Therefore, depending on your condition, it may have a positive or negative with your pacemaker.  There is simply not enough research done in conjunction with pacemakers, the heart, and THC to provide a direct solid answer for this question.  CBD does not make you high and while although it may affect your heart rate, a CBD topical is the safest form of marijuana we believe that may help you so long as you have prior consent from your medical provider.  If you do get consent, be sure to use our directory to find your dispensary that offers CBD products.  Finally, make sure to discuss the quality of the CBD product with your bud tender.  While although you can buy CBD products from multiple online sources, not everything is exactly what they say it is.  Dispensaries in Colorado and other regulated states often will have a better sourced product and a more pure product in our opinions.  We hope you’ve enjoyed this question located  on our Frequently Asked Medical Marijuana Questions page.
