How the F do I get a cannabis card, I’m not dying from sickness, I’m confused… Well, you asked the right dude! It is so ridiculously easy that every stoner should have one already. Alright the first step is the initial diagnosis: do you have any recent medical issues that cause you pain, discomfort, or anxiety? if so, get a copy of your medical records (call hosp. for them), make sure its recent and legit, and this part is done…

If you don't have any condition, here's the best and easiest one to fake EVER: it's called RSI or repetetive motion stress, and it can be in your wrists (suggested) or any other joint. It comes from (for me) moving my wrists around all day in a slightly unhealthy way that eventually starts hurting. just go in to your normal doctor, say your wrists have been hurting from one of these causes(u will probly be lying, fyi): u wrk @ Starbucks, you paint a lot, construction, etc. anything that believably would slowly build up to make your wrists hurt. when the doc tests out ur wrists, just say it hurts, but not a lot (they'll think you have carpal tunnel, don’t agree to surgery lol).

Now that you have legit paperwork for a questionably legit symptom, make an appointment at one of the many docs listed on NORML's california website(you must check out the one you choose, see if anyone else online has used via google). I chose Medicann ($135 for visit, quick, easy, lots of locations, best thing: they give you card for verification, no need to get state issued card that i dont want to pay for) and i'v found it works 95% of the time not having the state card (@ the clubs), cause i see the state card as an extra rip-off, personally.

Now that you are waiting in the lobby of the private clinic, filling out paperwork, just make sure you know how pot could help your condition when you meet the doc. u don't need to exaggerate or lie too much (they want you to have this card), just basically say that herb relieves your PAIN, you like to use it TO REPLACE / REDUCE USE OF MEDS, etc. NOW YOU FUCKING HAVE A CLUB CARD! best day of my life was that first day i hit the club, walked out with quantity. Goin to the club is where you'll want to be the most careful, do the most research (weedrtracker.com is a great start, or yelp).
please ask with anymore questions, and my new motto is: everyone should have a card, unless they're dirt poor (<- only reason not too.) hope this helps.
Peace and Love my brothers and sisters

"As a completely healthy guy who lives in California, who has obtained a med card, I assure everyone that it is possible, very easy in fact, to get a medical card. It is extremely simple, you have a basic consultation with a doctor, then you pay $100-$175 dollars (depending on location) for your medical card, which is typically only valid for one year.

Even if you sleep 14 hours a day, tell the doctor that you have insomnia. This is a foolproof excuse, as the doctor can't prove you don't have insomnia. Tell him that you've taken over the counter sleeping pills for years, and that they hardly work. Tell them cannabis works very effectively, and has no side effects.

They're really only gonna turn you down if you lie and claim to have a condition, and the doctor wants records before his approval."

good points bro... I'm sure the RUI servers hold many ways to get a card, I felt like it was time for one more...
anyways, it seems most of these doctors are just waiting for an excuse to give out these cards, but there are a few that either require everything to be super legit, or they take your money (if no med. documents) and tell you to fuck off. It's good to do the research.

Yeah that's definitely the truth. The more info out there to help potential medical users, the better. The doctors wanna make their money too. They're also risking their professions by approving healthy people like me and you for prescriptions.

I spread the gospel to every new person I smoke with out here in CA, get a card and grow your own. If not, at least get the card to protect you from legal troubles.

I'd recommend that prospective med users call up the clinic beforehand and ask around a bit before you go in and drop money.

I wonder how immagration would react to me applying for a green card so i can apply for a 'green' card?
On another note , family members or hideous neighbourhood creatures you think you could hook a fellow up with would be much appreciated haha , on the uncomical side i find it really sad that britain still wont give medical trials a fair fuckin shot ..
Free speech is nothing if anything come from our mouths but there's such a shitty list of what we can't put back in there

just wanted to say, as a side note, that I really do have mild carpal tunnel, so I am "sick", technically. It sucks that I actually have a legit reason to get a card in the end, cause my wrist hurt like a bitch...

I was diagnosed with acid reflux a few months ago and have esophogitis as well. Esophogitis is casused from acid reflux after continues vomiting wearing away at the tissue between you esophogus and your stomach. Personally, I know marijuana helps the nauseous feeling and even numbs the pain from the ulcers somewhat. My question to you is, do they allow cards to people with a problem like this? Would this be a worthy claim to obtaining a card? I have chronic back pain as well but haven't been to the doctor since 2004 because they couldnt do anything about it. I do have xrays showing I am missing a vertibrae and that my discs are twisted. Think that will work?
