No Prescription For Me

[steves]

A nurse practitioner told me today in Michigan she could not give me a prescription for opiates because I told her I used pot.  I live in Michigan.  She said she could loose her license.  I use pot illegally and yes I should have kept my mouth shut but I thought it would be helpful to tell her.  Is she right?

[t-pain]

usually docs and nurses are banned by hospital or employer rule from helping anyone with marijuana.

 

theres probably some dea rule about not prescribing "drug addicts" (aka marijuana users) anything.

while it could happen, i think its very rare.

pain docs routinely drug test patients.  If they find anything illegal, they drop the patient.

 

As far as mmj, they don't like patients to use it and sometimes drop patients over it.

some pain docs do that, but there are also compassionate ones who have an understanding of natural healing, and have seen the positive results firsthand.

My doc dont urine screen me, she never has and Im sure if she does I will be on my way finding a new dr. within a month or 2, I see my dr. every month, than it gets to every other, now im seeing my dr. or dr assnt every 4th month, any time Ive had a dr I trusted urine screen me, it ment some one bought in or they went to work for a bigger company, and they are not friendly to mm...

 

Im pos my doc will tell me 1st if they cant even have mm pt's as pt's and she will either help me find some one or say cya!! she used to renew me and she knows im an mm pt, I followed this assnt from my last m.d

 

my current primary dr is the only one that renewed me two yrs in a row lol, but hey now im good for 2 yrs and I have a butt load of medical records, I wanted to find a dr that will cert me and be my primary dr. Ive almost given up on that one, I guess im gonna have to keep my primary as long as she is kewl with it and find another mm dr. and keep that bonifide,,why does it have to be so hard?

 

I def am not gonna make a wish for how I would like it to be, unfortunatly Ive gotten what I wished for a few times, before long I regreted what I wished for!

 

Be careful what you wish for you just might get it!!

 

 

Peace

Keep your mouth shut. You cannot tell any Dr,or medical person. Even though MMJ is legal for pts here,they still ask you if you use "street drugs". Well in our case,MMJ is NOT a street drug. They can and WILL dump you as a pt for any reason they want to. Just keep your mouth shut,don't even ask any of them about it. Soon we will not need permission from Drs that will hand out poison RXs but not a plant. And they will be out of business once health care changes forever. I will still continue to use it as a med,legal or not. I only have the card to get a CG.
