Question for All: Open Discussion on Marijuana

Hello, I'm recently starting to try to get my card..I havn't said anything to my doctor yet, because I don't really know if I qualify, I would consider myself to have cronic back pain. I have always had back pain since I can remember but I have a high pain tolerance, but eventually I gave in. I wen't to my local chiropractor because it seemed to be getting worse and worse, and of course they have to give x-rays to new patient. Well I was waiting for the x-ray results to come back, and the doctor walks in and asks “when did you break your back” and I didn't know what to say, my spine is all wavey and I had a fractor. All I've done for the pain is go to the chiropractor once a week, and that still doesn't help. I know from self medication that marijuana does actaully help a lot, but I don't know if I can recieve a card.
