I know a person that on social security & smoke weed all day everyday….and claim its for pain…what pain…the pain that you cant get it when you dont have the money for it…. oh, that pain….why arent they tested..like we are for jobs….
Hello BOSS had pain management with percocet since marcha 2018. Had Belén taking 7 pills a day. I finally had some money saved for me to get tje medical marijuana nys Card. Love my medication but AM i able to get an appeal finalized? Or does medical marijuana for chronic pain screw your ssd
I live in Nevada where it is legal for medical and recreational. I have had 2 neck surgeries, spinal stenosis, and fibromyalgia is kicking my butt! I use it at night in order to sleep. I get restless leg syndrome and it is awful not sleeping well. I've been waiting 3 years, and my hearing is on the 25th. Do you have any recent information on this issue?
I have epilepsy and it's proven in my records but also had a drug addictition noe I know if the judge thinks that my drug addiction caused my seizures I'll get denied..but I had 2 years of clean time and it's on record and still had seizures..the judge today before in left the courtroom said to me happy holidays and I hope you can get these seizures under control.dont know if that was a good thing or not bit Wil I get denied though because of past drug use?even of it didn't cause my conditions?
I have been a Medical Marijuana patient for over 10 years. I use it to treat my disc pain and inflammation as it works better than any prescription I have ever tried. I would not lie, but wanted to know how this would affect my case. You talk about MJ as if it was a common street drug, and I have educated a few Dr's along the way personally. I have found a lot of ignorance from the Medical profession on this topic and was wondering if I will get an ignorant Judge too. ??
Hey can you do a video on answering my question can you buy gold and silver while on disability and will it affect your disability I have looked all over online about this subject and I still can't find an answer you're a disability lawyer so if you could please make a video on it I will subscribe to you I already clicked disability but I would really want to know this answer because I am strongly thinking about buying and investing in silver but I'm worried that it might affect me but on the other hand what if I just put it in a safe no one has to know but is that legal to or not
Just be honest if u aren't sellin n abusing it even tho i was when i was younger but leave out superfluous info over sharing much ya. I've gotten more via omitting then i have by being the nice honest t.m.i.(too much info) Guy. now i just stfu! Yes no my lawyer taught me how2do so. lol but i didnt say shit about it we did 2 lawyer they said non issue. but this was a decade+ ago so idk are they more crazy now? lol when they asked me tho i think i was honest n either we just said no. or we discussed it n they said be honest n its for med use. which it was self medicating to this day only legit lol. fkm finally! Ugh fully legalize it none of this cap on how much u can smoke in 90 days fuck sake! Never kill ne1! idigress.just absolutely mad that it was ever illegal! That anyone could have anything to say about wtf an adult decides to put in their own body! irks the piss outta me! But ya be honest if they ask u n u know if u dirty cuz ur body language will tell on you! Then judges order drug test especially when several other times they tested me at random drs they had all my records n knew. i think they ask.if i still did n i said yes for pain. n anxiety they said it makes.it worse didmt argue with them they have BBBB BIIIIIIIIIIIIIG EGOS! so RESPECT THEM& BE HONEST& HUMBLE! THEY WILL RESPECT U FOR IT. if there normal. i mean sessions is a dam judge n hes fkn insane n brainwash from another time. a dark time of much suffering. well I'm out just wanted 2 help n share cuz i replied "i just smoked last night" lol but i can't remember if that was a dr a juge a cop etc etc etc lol. but be honest n don't over share. the less u say the better.
so if you tell the truth it wont mean nun bc i smoke casually i told the truth bc mycondition has to do with muscles so what weed does it takes away all the pain!!!
I'm from Colorado where recreational and medical marijuana are legalized. What about those of us who have a MMJ prescription? Will we still risk being denied benefits? I have a MMJ card and can prove it in court if need be
Also note Dr's also check I know for a fact with growing problems with pain meds Dr's are checking with blood test you are taken the pain meds you are giving and not mixing and Marijuana is on the list, only reason I know this to be true our local Primary offices make you sign a agreement while being on pain meds they can ask for blood or urine test at anytime.So they would note it in your record if something shows up That shouldnt be there:) Sorry had to put my 2 cents in 🙂

I will like to know.. when you get denied by the judge.. they give you 60 to appeal.. I did that ..i sent them new evidence, they sent back a letter saying that that they received the evidence but I have 25 day to explain why I didn't sent those before and if I have more evidence to send also.. my question is how long is that process. Of course I told it was the doctor
Hi my lawyer said the judge denied me wrongfully so he appeald to appeal council said the judge made several mistakes I'm still very sick not sure why he would denied me he didn't consider nothing really that my cardiologist said or my psychiatrist or my surgerys he dismissed mostly everything smh I'm having another ablation on my heart very soon. They want me to have back surgery my blood pressure is still uncontrolled and several other things are wrong what are my chances at the council level for a remand back to court please answer thank you
I was turned down from a claim because I was prescribed for it by my psychologist for my ADHD. I hadn't used medical marijuana prior. I was told that it would discount me from my claim. It's like you are damn if you do and damn if you don't. In the interview I was completely honest. But that went against me. I was told not to do it and quit and get medication for my Adhd. I like the cannabis because it helped with my headaches to. I have three bad discs in my neck which causes bad headaches. I need back surgery, both my knees replaced and have three herniated discs in my lower back and have DDD. Been waiting 3 years too.
I had a dui a long time ago for drinking and the medical examiner called me an alcohaaulic its been years sence i have drank sence the dui is this a big problem

living with chronic pain and being denied a plant to use for help is just cruel. cruel

Why do the Aljudge want a second hearing with a person when you want before him
I was turned down from a claim because I was prescribed for it by my psychologist for my ADHD. I hadn't used medical marijuana prior. I was told that it would discount me from my claim. It's like you are damn if you do and damn if you don't. In the interview I was completely honest. But that went against me. I was told not to do it and quit and get medication for my Adhd.

What if you are licensed to use medical marijuana?
I had a dui a long time ago for drinking and the medical examiner called me an alcohaaulic its been years sence i have drank sence the dui is this a big problem
My advice is do NOT tell your Doctor that you smoke weed IF you want your SSDI.
