Florida is allegedly canceling Florida medical marijuana patients. Dr. Adrian Long’s office of Crescent Beach Care in St. Augustine Florida is allegedly canceling Florida medical marijuana patients Mmj card/registration. Today on The Marijuana Solution podcast episode 25 we speak with Nina Dawn of Florida. According to Nina, Dr. Long’s office staff refused to put her order in for two weeks, then demanded more money, and finally said they would be canceling her order in the registry. This was allegedly done after putting her into the registry but not putting in active order. According to Nina Dawn, she was advised that she would have an initial order of 300mg/day and she could adjust it if needed, otherwise, she wouldn’t need to be seen again until the renewal of 7 months came up. Nina says she was told this despite never actually receiving an active order for 300mg/day as the doctor advised. This means Nina has a card but no actual order for medicine. Nina says that the doctor&#39;s office billed her insurance company and was paid, despite cannabis being federally illegal. Does this mean that the doctor lied about the nature of the visit to her insurance company? Who knows, we will continue to look into this story to get some answers. Unfortunately, stories like this continue to pour in from around the state. We reached out to Dr. Long’s office for comment and so far calls have not been returned. Despite the horror stories coming in about shady practices, the vast majority of physician-patient relationships are outstanding and patients are happy overall with the care provided.

The use of medical marijuana for appropriate conditions with Dr. Michelle Weiner. Dr. Michelle is an Interventional Pain Management Physician board certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. She’s also an advocate for the use of medical marijuana for appropriate conditions in her Florida practice. Because of her pro-medical cannabis stance, Dr. Weiner is in high demand as a dynamic speaker at live events throughout the state about this medicine. Her seminar appearances and regular podcasts have reached thousands of potential medical marijuana patients and also educated many physicians on this emerging treatment. The doctor completed her residency and fellowship training at the University of Miami and is certified by the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine. While she specializes in diagnosing and treating spine and musculoskeletal pain as well as chronic migraines, Dr. Weiner is passionate about the use of medical cannabis to improve the quality of life in some of her patients. Based in South Florida, she sees many elderly patients that have been previously prescribed opiate-based medications. While this class of powerful and highly addictive drugs is appropriate for certain conditions, Dr. Weiner feels a strong need to educate her patients about less dangerous alternatives including medical marijuana. In fact, she individualizes medical cannabis treatments based on patient-specific factors with the goal of maximizing the quality of life for her patients. She feels medical cannabis can often be an excellent option for seniors to help decrease overall pharmaceutical use and avoid the incredibly dangerous side effects of an opioid pain relief regimen. So, Dr. Weiner focuses on decreasing opioid consumption while still effectively managing pain with alternative methods like medical cannabis.

Focus on true health care reform with Cory Hutchinson. Below is Cory’s bio from the CrowPac site. You can commit to donating to his campaign at this link. I am Cory Hutchinson, a North Port resident, who has lived in Sarasota County my entire life. I believe in our county, and in our people. I have seen the struggles and successes of this region over the course of my life, and have seen what many families and individuals are dealing with. We have a community that is ripe with potential but is not being served well by our current representatives. Wages are stagnant, and many Sarasota and Charlotte County residents are living in poverty. Many cannot find a job that supports a family, because these jobs are disappearing in favor of minimum-wage, part-time positions. Florida’s mental health care system has fallen apart, and our environmental protection is lackluster. We have to remember that Florida, and Sarasota County, are not just tourist destinations. We have to focus on the people who pay taxes here, the people who live here year round. I am considering running for State Representative, District 74, to bring your voice to Tallahassee. I believe in our citizens. I believe in citizen’s rights, and making sure that we, as citizens, are fairly represented. I want our education system reformed, our health care system reformed, and our legislators to pay attention to the people they promised to represent.

Veterans for homegrown medicine with R Gage Amsler, the author of The Strains of War, joins Robert Roundtree for the second appearance on The Marijuana Solution. While on tour in Afghanistan, with snow lightly covering the Hindu Kush region, Gage and his team spot a handful of beautiful cannabis plants that were chock full of seeds. The genetics are now back in the US and being developed for release as free clones to veterans for homegrown medicine. This is an hourlong podcast that every veteran and cannabis enthusiast must listen to. We will continue to have Gage back on in the future. The pictures below are the ones that Gage speaks about during the podcast. The Strains Of War: Could Cannabis Be the Cure to Combat PTSD? The Strains of War Is the Provoking New TRUE STORY Release by a Veteran Struggling to Cultivate a Cure and Recover from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. A soldier going to war knows to expect the unexpected, and R.&#39;Doc&#39; Gage Amsler encountered a lot of expected and unexpected trauma during his time in Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan working in/in support of the United States military forces. But he also stumbled upon a legendary cure hidden in the mountains along the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan – the Hindu Kush. He’d heard plenty about this mystical strain of cannabis working as a long time medic... but how much of it was true? Could this particular strain really be the salvation to PTSD? Could he cultivate it? Could he even get it home safely?

Emily Wood, Trulieve’s social media manager is the guest on the 79th episode of The Marijuana Solution. Emily joins the show to talk about the challenges that cannabis companies face on social media. With cannabis still being federally illegal, most social media platforms have strict rules for content that is allowed. Educating patients and engaging them online is not as easy as it would be for a company like Publix, or CVS. Emily does an excellent job navigating the social media waters for the state&#39;s number one dispensary and her expertise has helped create the largest, most engaged page in the state of Florida. At Trulieve, they strive to bring you the relief you need in a product you can trust. Their plants are hand-grown in an environment specially designed to reduce unwanted chemicals and pests, keeping the process as natural as possible at every turn.

Jose Belen, founder of Mission Zero gives host Robert Roundtree and The Marijuana Solution listeners a birds eye recap of what happened in the United States Southern District of New York Federal Courtroom earlier this week. We are extremely grateful for Jose coming on to update The Marijuana Solution. This was recorded by phone after the hearing while he was on his way to his next meeting. Jose Belen is an American war hero who fought bravely in war and was honorably discharged. Upon returning from Iraq he realized the war for his mind was raging 24/7, also known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD. To learn more about his story, please listen to the first podcast that he was a guest of. He is, hands down, the largest voice for veterans and medical cannabis in the world. It is an honor to have him tell us what went down in NYC. Without spoiling too much of the podcast, it’s good news and the fight is just heating up. Jose and his co-plaintiffs filed a lawsuit against the Federal government to de-schedule cannabis and remove it from the controlled substances act.

This is close to an hour of everything you need to know about third party testing in Florida. There are only a handful of dispensaries in Florida that provide third party lab results, and only one that has made it very easy from the beginning, and that’s Trulieve. Some companies actually do not test the products. With testing rules coming down the pipeline, Chris gives us some insight into the types of standards that we can expect in the Sunshine State.

Senator Jeff Brandes, a conservative Republican lawmaker with district offices in St. Petersburg, Florida has filed SB182 to end the smoking ban on medical marijuana in the Sunshine State. Senator Brandes has been a strong voice for implementing the will of the 71.3% of voters that approved the United for Care Amendment 2 in 2016. SB182 is as follows: Medical Use of Marijuana; Redefining the term “marijuana delivery device” to provide an exception to the requirement that such devices must be purchased from a medical marijuana treatment center for devices that are intended for the medical use of marijuana by smoking; redefining the term “medical use” to include the possession, use, or administration of marijuana in a form for smoking; restricting the smoking of marijuana in enclosed indoor workplaces; requiring a qualified physician to submit specified documentation to the Board of Medicine and the Board of Osteopathic Medicine upon determining that smoking is an appropriate route of administration for a qualified patient, other than a patient diagnosed with a terminal condition, etc.

Commissioner of AG Nikki Fried Announcing a Hemp CBD Crackdown in Florida. Florida Politics published an article that set the Florida cannabis industry on fire. Specifically the unlicensed and unregulated Hemp CBD industry. The article was titled Nikki Fried may soon target stores selling CBD oil. This sent the advocates into a frenzy online with many calling for investigations and the states most prominent lawyer, Michael Minardi, announcing plans for a lawsuit on behalf of the CBD industry. We first broke the news of her intent to send out cease and desist letters on January 7th in this episode. Commissioner Fried is one of the most popular and frequent guests on The Marijuana Solution, and she has joined us again to discuss exactly what her office intends to do. Everyone that’s following the industry knows about the rampant fraud that’s in the unregulated CBD market. Everyone from patients purchasing products, retailers wholesale buying packaged brands, white labelers buying raw materials have been ripped off. The state of Florida has been testing products on shelves for quite some time and many of the products make false claims to the amount of cbd, some products contain way over the legal limit of thc, and some products actually contain other substances that are not disclosed like Kratom, Bath Salts, Melatonin. These types of reports have been covered by local state media, and even ConsumerReports.comAlthough there are many great players and thousands of Floridians getting relief, there are an unusual amount of bad actors and patients getting ripped off because of a lack of regulations. Florida is in the process of passing hemp legislation and once a bill is signed into law there will be a legal pathway for everyone from small farms to big ag to get a license and be involved. Commissioner Fried is not planning on shutting the industry down, she understands that there are many Floridians getting relief from hemp CBD. Her intent is to provide a legal way for companies to do business at all facets of the industry and provide the regulations necessary to ensure product safety and accuracy of claims.

Hello, cannabis community. My name is Kyle Trent and I am the brother of Nugtopia creator Kole Trent. I grew was born in Baltimore Maryland but grew up predominantly in Merritt Island Florida. I run daily operations for Nugtopia as well as his growing number of Trent Art Gallery’s. While trying to pursue my passion for helping people, Kole pulled me out of Nursing school when I was 22 to pursue our dream of just that. Our goal initially was to help our mother and just from that spark we are now able to help people all over the globe with our spread of cannabis awareness. Thank you all for the love and support!
