Many people are simply
unaware of the proven health benefits of marijuana. Even
physicians and other specialists often find it difficult to
obtain this information.
Canada Medical Marijuana wants
to make it easy for you to find
resources that support using medical marijuana to treat your condition,
so that you have the opportunity to discuss openly with your doctor to
make an informed choice.
The fact that the 124,000
members of the American College of Physicians
have endorsed the use of marijuana for its medicinal value should speak
loudly for the need for Canadian doctors to review the unprecedented
evidence supporting the medicinal values of marijuana.
You have an organic, sustainable option to pharmaceutical drugs and
deserve the right to discuss these options openly with your doctor.
Some good news happening in the east coast: The latest numbers from
Heatlh Canada and the Institute for Health Information suggest that
about three per cent of New Brunswick's 1,447 physicians support the
authorization for patients to have possession of marijuana for medical
purposes.
Also, Nova Scotia leads all provinces and territories for
physicians who support medical marijuana use, with 7.2 per cent and
leads all provinces, per capita, in the number of people authorized to
posses medical marijuana. New Brunswick ranked fourth per capita with
88 people as of June 2009.
So there is hope out there for you. Take some time browzing through the
different links and watch some videos regarding your condition. Print
off some information to give to your doctor. The best information you
can give your doctor is your own testimony on how medical marijuana
helps you.
