MEDICAL MARIJUANA ROADBLOCKS CONTINUE
TO FRUSTRATE FOR MS
& RA
BC Canada
12-05-05
Dr. Alan Russell wrote in his letter, "The marijuana conundrum"
( the Medical Post, Nov. 15 ): "For multiple sclerosis or severe
rheumatoid arthritis, a specialist with an FRCP or an FRCS can sign a form for
the medical use of marijuana. I have yet to be able to find two
specialists in this field who will see a patient within a year and who will sign
a form."
Perhaps Dr. Russell is unaware of this ( a great many doctors are ), but
for severe pain in MS and RA, for intractable spasm in MS, and for other
"category 1" disease symptoms, the regulations state the MMAR forms
may be signed by any physician who knows the patient ( though the number of
doctors willing to do so is small, for the reasons he gave. )
There is a requirement for a specialist's knowledge, but not their signature,
for category 2 symptoms, however, meaning unless a patient is in truly awful
straits, legal access to marijuana as medication can take a very long time to
obtain--years, in some cases. Ask Terry Parker, whose case brought the
MMAR into being in the first place.
Dr. Russell also states, "I believe the current legislation is so
obstructive it denies the right of the patient in need of obtaining the
medication legally and in a reasonable time legally."
In this, the doctor is absolutely correct. Not only that; the medical
marijuana regulations were declared unconstitutional until five important
barriers to access were removed by order of the Ontario Court of Appeal, but two
of them were put right back in within weeks of the law being deemed
"fixed," meaning the law is again unconstitutional as currently
written.
