Most likely you will qualify for a card but you need a consultation with one of our doctors in order to obtain a card. Medical marijuana works for many different issues and as a physician working for helloMD, I often find many reasons for patients to use medical cannabis when the patient was not aware that Cannabis could actually help. Consider signing on and have your consultation, If by chance you don’t need a recommendation you would qualify for a refund.

Yes, you should be able to get a card for those problems since cannabis would work well especially the CBD or cannabidiol would tend to get you out of pain and calm anxiety and depression so you can start moving forward with your life and health. The topical CBDs are phenomenal medicines when used in a salve and applied frequently to your spine to stop the arthritic pain in your joints but you may also be Vitamin D deficient. Consider an appointment for an evaluation and to speak with a knowledgeable physician about cannabis use to resolve your problems.

After you receive your medical card, you will be able to purchase a patch. These two brands are great for patches (Just check with your local dispensary or delivery if they have them on their menu)
