The tricky part is that although it is legal in our state, my employer would rather I suffer...So, the only thing that would truly improve my condition is out of reach for me still....

I came across this thread by chance, and all I can say is it's absurd that the FDA can approve medications left and right with far more serious side effects....MJ has proven it's effectiveness with many different medical conditions, yet, medicinal marijuana is still not legal in all 50 states. Or, the commonwealth state of Puerto Rico.....How many states is it legal?...16?....
I have had more than my fair share of heartache watching people I loved/love either die or exist in pain on a daily basis....Yet, the pain management specialists I've dealt with are totally useless as far as I am concerned.....They get their money through countless, ineffective treatments while the people you loved/love suffer unnecessarily.... The question should not be in the various state legislatures on whether it's moral or not to legalize medicinal MJ.....People are suffering, and they should not be....Period....What's criminal is that they are being made to suffer day in day out.... |

I would never approach anyone at my work to request that an exception be made, because the assumption would immediately be that I am already using it. I love my job, the medical benefits and the idea that I might be able to someday retire with a pension too much to risk it. So, as long as I am able to work with my condition, I will have to do so with pain, nausea and vomiting. If I ever have to go on disability I will utilize medical marijuana at that time.
I really can see both sides of the fence on this one...My employer is a large utility company, and they must insure that they meet very high safety standards.. I work in customer service, so it is not like there is a safety issue there, but they really must apply the same rules to everyone. |

Medical marijuana is not exactly 'legal bud'. It's only legal for medical purposes, with a doctor's prescription and ID cards, in 16 states and DC. In all other states and as far as the federal government is concerned it's a Schedule I drug and has no medical benefits.
There are (I think) 14 or 15 states that have decriminalized (lesser pnealties, fines, no jail etc) non-medical marijuana. The federal government does not decriminalize Schedule 1 drugs.
