Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is Medical Marijuana Advisable For Headaches And Insomnia?
Mairijuana allows me to relax enough to sleep when I have bad headaches from Hydrocephalus. Is this a qualifying condition for medical marijuana. Right now I have to obtain illegally. Age 54 - Have dual peritaneal shunts. neurologist / neurosurgeon do not condone. Fustrated.
The conditions don't really matter sir, it is the level and degree of pain. The level of pain and relief from them found only from the use of medical marijuana is what allows for it to be used. Most doctors will not concur sir, because they only wish to avoid dependance and anyother ill-effects that come along with it.
Best wishes.
