Hi, im 21 years old. i was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis in may. i had surgery in june. My question is would it be possible for me to get prescribed medical marijuana to help alleviate my symptoms. I find that when i take over the counter pain relievers i have little to no relief. I Do not want to be prescribed any opioid due to the addiction risk. Im tired of constantly having to take more and more pain pills to try to get relief. ANY SUGGESTIONS ?

    You might want to google this for your country. If you're in the States, google for your state. In Texas, for example, the answer is still no. Also in the States, even if it's okay in your state, it's still illegal under fed law which means that you're always subject to a federal rap. As back in the '60s & '70s, this most often comes into play during baggage searches at airports.

    i think it just depends on what state you live in. If your state has medical pot then i dont see why not, it seems like a perfectly good reason! you could also try CBD, i have heard great things about it.
