i have read that many ppl have a hard time asking their GI or GP for MMJ even where it is accessible and it so sad, because it really does improve ur quality of life. Basically i got to a point where i was angry and had to be my own advocate!! it took a couple years of Doctor's jerking me around but i finally got what i deserve!! Do you really wanna spend all day on the toilet? in agony crapping ur pants, no appetite and no dignity left whatsoever? i am 29 years l've been sick since i was 17 and at times i have felt like a 90 year old man on his deathbed. Enough is enough!! this is my disease and i own that, i own all the misery that comes with it so NOBODY is gonna tell me i can't smoke weed but i can put crap like Imuran in my body no problem, its ur life and if u know deep down in ur soul that something helps you live a little bit better than stand up for what you want. to my friends who live in a place where there is no access to MMJ: my deepest sympathies and i hope your part of the world becomes a little more enlightened and soon.

one more thing: it really really sucks, but you have to give up the "western diet" of processed shit food and switch to anti-inflammatory foods, ur body will feel weird at first adjusting to this diet,it took me almost a year but I now couldn't even imagine eating anything else.. I have my bad days when i just wanna eat pizza or burger like everyone else around me but i can't . it is a tough pill to swallow but in time ur mind will adjust--much love to everyone and good luck
