Medicinal Marijuana Card and parents?

Question

Hi, I'm 18 and I plan on applying for a card. With stress from school and work, I find medicinal marijuana very helpful in treating my insomnia. The one thing is, my parents have never approved of marijuana, so would they ever be able to find out if I had a card? From my knowledge, initially only my doctor and I would know about this.

Anyone care to fill me in? Thanks,

Answer 1

You're an adult, and doctor patient confidentiality would prevent your doctor from saying anything to anybody.  They'd only know if you told them.

Answer 2

If you actually receive a medicinal marijuana card for this (insomnia), let me know when and where; I'll hop the next jet...

But seriously, I doubt insomnia is considered on a par with chemotherapy, chronic wasting, glaucoma, etc.

In short, don't get your hopes up...
