Its iffy. The quality isn't well controlled. It may or may not help. And from what I have read, isn't something that helps quickly. If it helps, it takes weeks to start. I am not doubting it, but it isn't for all situations. And getting safe and reputable oils is also complicated.

My wife gets it if she wants it. You have to go to place across the street to the north of the machine shed restaurant in Woodbury/Lake Elmo. That doctor ok's or denies you. When ok'd you have to start with drops and then can get vape contraption soon after. She used to get it at a place on 94 and Cretin in St Paul in same building as Lake Monster Brewing.

It is quite a lot and not easy. I called around today and we might have to travel a couple hours for the certification, but there is a dispensary in our town. I am going to call tomorrow and talk to them.

Actually you can get vape pens. That is what the oil is for. What you can't get is actual "buds". It's all synthetic THC, whether in vape or pill form.


And you're right it is not easy. My stepson was going through cancer treatment at the Children's Hospital and we had to go above the doctor's head and have a director at the hospital sign off on the certification. And even then, they kept it locked in his room at all times and sometimes the nurses would not give him the pills. But they were willing to hand out 10-20 oxys per day, to the point that he was getting withdrawals after leaving the hospital.

Minnesota should take a good look at Portland, Henderson Nevada, Colorado Springs colorado. Large cities with many recreational dispensaries. The population has increased in those cities. But so has job growth. Cannabis brings in huge tax revenue. Tax money that could help curb the high taxes of Minnesota.

Yet I respect your opinion. That’s the great country we live in. I can’t be angry with you or anyone who opposes cannabis or anything else for that matter.

In the end we are all one.

Have a great day to all

Actually, Colo Spgs only has medical dispensaries. It does not allow recreational dispensaries within the city limits once the measure was passed at the state level, because municipalities were allowed to determine for themselves if they wanted to participate.
