In addition to this list of illnesses and diseases, your doctor can use their discretion to prescribe a medical marijuana card for other conditions such as severe menstrual cramps, chronic pain, or insomnia
Your doctor can provide advice on the best type of medical marijuana to address your needs. There are several different blends and hybrids of cannabis as well as a variety of consumption methods. Example, your physician may recommend:
State-registered dispensaries provide both either low-THC cannabis and medical-grade cannabis. The active ingredient in low-THC marijuana is cannabidiol (CBD). It doesn't cause any "high" or intoxicated feelings, although you may feel relaxed after using it.
Regular medical-grade cannabis has normal levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The doctors at CFP Physicians Group prescribe medical marijuana because it provides a range of benefits such as pain relief and reduced symptoms of anxiety, depression, and insomnia. Medical marijuana can also increase your appetite, which is often critical if you're having chemotherapy or have a chronic gastrointestinal problem.
Your physician can recommend the best methods of medical marijuana administration to the benefits you need. During your initial consultation and follow-up appointments, they observe your symptoms and talk to you about your overall health to determine the best treatment plan to reduce your symptoms and restore your quality of life. If medical marijuana is right for you, they prescribe a medical marijuana card and help you register to obtain and use medical marijuana legally.
