Hey Deborah! Yes I agree – it can be expensive. Having been laid off from my job last year I live on a tight budget as I try and make my savings last until I find another job. It’s also super frustrating that I have a significant amount of money in my HSA but can’t use it for MMJ. Which is annoying because it is $$ I earned and set aside for medical expenses.

Hopefully things will change soon!

In reply to Judy Epstein.

Hi Judy!

Thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately, I don’t have knowledge about how to get mmj. There are a number of medical cannabis support groups on facebook, some focused on specific countries/locations. Perhaps there are people there that might be able to provide you with more information.

Good luck! I’ve quickly grown to be a full blown MMJ advocate – it has helped me in so many ways – and in my humble opinion, anyone with a medical need should have access to the plant and it’s medicinal properties. Bummer that no one is asking me to write the laws:)

Cheers,
Meg

Love your blogs. I live in the UK, have MS (and an old sports injury) causing pain. I have two questions. Israel is very tuned into to the uses of medical marijuana for ms in proportions of 5 cbd oil to 2 thc (will change according to the person’s efficacy needs). The UK follows everything the US does, but mj is still illegal. Medical mj legality may happen eventually, but the UK is very slow to change. Do you have any idea where I could obtain medical mj via Israel or the UK? Thanks! Be well xxoo

I can see where cannibas would help with the pain but do you struggle with over eating at all?
