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.
