Get Your Medical Marijuana Card in Flint, MI

Before I got started; I heard from a number of people that getting your medical marijuana card was difficult, that was not the experience that I had! In three short days days I learned what I had to do to qualify, schedule an appointment, met with the doctor, and sent my paperwork off to the state. Less than a month later I’m a card carrying member of the Michigan medical marijuana program.

I got my medical marijuana card in 2013 with another clinic that charged $300 to meet with the doctor. I have self medicated with marijuana for the better part of three decades and really just needed to renew my card. GreenWay Michigans website made it easy to connect to a new doctor, they were able to schedule me an appointment after work in Beecher and I was able to renew my card within a week.

I have thought about getting my medical marijuana card since the first year it was available. I asked my primary care doctor if he would consider helping me apply for the program the same year, he made me feel uncomfortable about it and said no. I found Greenway Michigan and was scheduled to meet with a doctor who respected me and my choices, I wish I would’ve started sooner but I’m glad I finally got my card.

After 35 years of working in a nursing home kitchen on a hard linoleum floor my all of my joints ache and my feet and hands hurt all the time. My daughter suggested I try using medical marijuana, I have used marijuana from time to time over the years with one of my husbands friends, but I never really thought of it as a medicine before. When I went to the office, the doctor told me about marijuana with a greater CBD content which would not get me nearly as “high” as what I had used previously; I was excited about that. I was able to find a caregiver who provides me with CBD marijuana and a topical salve that I apply to my feet and joints which works better than anything else I have ever tried. I would encourage people like me to give this a shot, it really works.
