Ulcerative Colitis in Iowa

Hi,
I'm a 23 year old male (out of Iowa) who was hit with Ulcerative Colitis in January of 2006. I've been off all meds for about 3 months now and have been doing great. However, I've been doing some reading and found that several states specifically state Crohns disease as a reasonable excuse to acquire a license to use/grow marijuana. Perhaps I need to talk to a doctor here in Iowa to find out if I would be eligible for a license. I was mostly just wondering if I might have a chance or not of getting one?

Thanks for any replies!
 
GrowCoop I'm sorry but its a long shot. While Iowa has rescheduled marijuana from schedule 1 to schedule 2 and this allows for doctors to recommend it, it doesn't protect those same doctors and they can have their licence's revoked for it. Chances are they wont give it to you but I guess it can't hurt to try. Best thing you can do is write your congressmen and senators to ask to vote yes on the next medical marijuana incetive there.
 
Thanks Spliff..
Thats kinda what I expected to hear. I'm going to talk to my doctor and see what she says about that.

Thanks again!
 
im also from iowa and in medcinal states I would be considered a canidate (migraines, depression and a few others)

does anyone know when the next bill will go to the senate for iowa? Because even though my neurologist is a good friend, i doubt hes that nice.

Good luck GrowCoop
