DEA CANNABIS RESCHEDULING

PUBLIC COMMENT VIEWER

Here is a random public comment on the rescheduling of cannabis to Schedule III from Tamara Correa.
In my prior comment, I neglected to add that medical marijuana has allowed me to cease using opiates to control my pain and cease the use of Valium to control my anxiety from my PTSD. I am a 100% totally disabled veteran and I suffer from multiple sclerosis, dysautonomia, PTSD, fibromyalgia, and seizures. My overall health has greatly improved since I’ve stopped using opiates and Valium, and medical marijuana was instrumental in that process. It’s unfortunate that I have to see a private doctor for my medical marijuana prescriptions, as the private doctor does not have access to my entire medical history and records that are housed at the VA medical facilities. Passing of this bill would ensure the integrity of a review of my past VA medical history, that private doctors do not have access to, in addition to greatly helping veterans like myself to cease using Valium and opiates.
