dnon75 is an unknown quantity at this point
MMA Rhode Island

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and looking for some insight on a few topics. First off, I am a 20 year old student at URI and I just moved into Bonnet Shores near campus after having lived in North Kingstown my whole life. I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis last year and my condition is steadily worstening. I suffer from severe pain most of the time and basically my life sucks right now. To get to the point, I need to know of a doctor who is willing to sign my MMA forms. Ive already been to 2 rheumatologists and both of them would not. I think its wrong that a doctors personal beliefs can affect the way my health is treated. I've smoked weed many times and It has great benefits for helping the pain in my disease. I know some of you must be MMA card holders, and yes i've read the MMA several times and have been to every website pertaining to this matter in RI. I know someone out there has the abiltiy to help me.

Smile Hi hon,

I'm on the other side of the country, so I can't be too much help! I do know that the California Norml site has a list of friendly doctors, does RI Norml does have one too? You'd think that sort of thing would be a "no-brainer"!

Could you do me a small favor? I want you to click the link in my sig and make copies of the "Arthritis" section. I'd like you to give/send it to those uncooperative docs! Maybe they might learn something!

Next, take any of the studies that look good to you, print them, and take them with you to the next doc (if NORML doesn't come through). It might better your chances! Saying something helps is one thing. Saying it helps and backing it up with scientific studies is another.

California may be chaotic, but I love the permissive system here! Cannabis is good for a wide variety of medical uses- major and minor. Creating artificial criteria (laws) for who can, or cannot, use this safe herbal medicine, makes our politicians into our doctors!

Good luck in your search! I'm sure someone will know and, rather than blurt it out for LEO to see, will give you some rep and the doc's name as a comment! (Lack of a PM feature is one on the few minor faults at C.com- but I understand the reasons for the policy.)
