Compassionate advice? Re: Med "Mota", etc.
Greetings & Salutations, Mexicano Nuevos(?);
I'll try to make a longish story short: tough for me, wordy old bear that I be.
The NW frigid damp bites a bit deeper every winter on my near-sixty year-old bones. Albuquerque's or Santa Fe's higher elevation, lower humidity, abundant sunshine all seem to possibly offer relief for osteoarthritis, chronic muscle pain/stiffness, RLS, SAD, COPD, PTSD, and other afflictions this %100 disabled (peacetime) Vet suffers from. My research has proven that the judicious use of medical "mota" relieves or lessens my symptoms.
In conjunction with AB's weather averages, even the cold of winter may be less painful due to higher altitude and lower humidity/rainfall, yes? So, how might I find a MM licensed & qualified NM doctor/practioner to examine/prescribe for me in "Ah'll-be-quirky"?
I see that there's a VA hospital in AB and a CBOC in Santa Fe, UM & SFCC, and so those cities seem to fit my mindset.
I'd deeply appreciate your friendly advisements.

If you get out of the damp you probably will not need the mota. The sunsets will provide plenty of relaxation. Take a trip to Tor C and rent a hotel room for a month. Do this in January and then return to the PNW in February. I think your future living place will become obvious.

You're in a damp but pretty state.
Get to a drier climate and it will help.

There's a doctor in TorC. That's the only one I know about. If you contact the Med Marijuana office of the state health dept. they'll provide you with names. The state "dealers" have just recently been approved and should be supplying in two months or so.

Ummmmm..... I'd like to go on the record as one who is also over 50 and not feeling so well. Honest. |
