You should consider 11th state consultations phone number: 401-228-5184 the sooner the better! :)

Not if you have a qualifying condition that has been previously documented and a compassionate Doctor. I obtained my card recently for chronic persistent pain. My injuries and chronic conditions were well documented so I had no problem once I found a compassionate prescribing physician. I went to 11th state consultations. The wait for my appointment was 6 weeks and then another 5 for the DOH process. I wish you well 400watts Good Luck :smile:

Did you already ask your General Practioner? Most family Dr's are more apt to signing the reccomendations now in RI... SOunds like your reason is valid

If you have chronic pain or nausea associated with your condition and the doctor agrees that it is in your best interest. then yes you may qualify! Call 11th state consultations they will guide you through the process and set up an appointment date for you if they believe you qualify. They do a phone interview first. Get the ball rolling and good luck :)
