Hello Icurby.
I live in Georgia. Marijuana is not legal here. I have my medical card. I thought it would be covered. But it is only legal for certain oils..
But I use gummy's for relaxation and sleep. They work very well for me. I have other chronic medical issues. Sometimes when I am in so much pain. I will smoke a little bit of a joint. It calms the pain. Also if I am having bad tremors. I will smoke some.
You can buy "legal" smoke and gummies. A site that I use is MOOD. I get pre rolled joints. Very good products. They ship right to you in a very discrete package.
Just my view and experience.
Good luck
