The best way to get a card is to tell one of these docs that the medications you are currently taking are not helping you with what ever problem it is you have and your body doesn't cope well with the effects these pills are giving you. You are pretty much telling the doctor you want the natural shit like marijuana. the fee to get one of those cards is any where from $150 - $250 depends on where in Cali. Google some shit like "california medical marijuana help" or "california medical marijuana program"
Even MJ docs dont "prescribe MJ",they recommend only and prices will start at $90 in OC and go up depending on where you live.

Its such a sham. A medicann doctor openly admitted on channel 2 news that he has never denied a single patient whether they had medical records or not. People like this are really setting the movement back a decade.

Having pins is not a good enough reason to get a card. Having pins that cause you chronic pain is. I assume thats what you are implying is wrong with you.

And, you dont go to your local health insurance provider for marijuana. You go to a doctor who does nothing but deal with marijuana treatable conditions. 99% of normal docs wont touch this issue with a 10 foot pole so you have to see a specialist.

If you truly think that something is wrong with you then check out potdoc.com. Dr. Ellis will deny you in a heart beat if he thinks you are faking. Hes been around for a long time and is a former emergency room doctor. If you are trying to fake your way into the system then my advice is 1) dont do it 2) if you do it go to one of the less reputable doctors i.e. that guy from medicann that hes never denied anyone.
Some VERY good advice here,i have medicann and your right about them giving this movement a bad name indeed,i wish they would stop or i will go elsewhere upon my renewal.
