I can assure you that if you want it, you can get medical MJ in NJ. My wife recently went through the process and has a medical MJ permit...she has IBS. There are hoops to jump through but its not a big deal, takes some time and some $$. |
I have tried, and was told twice that SCI does not qualify. I tried signing up with a known MJ script doctor but he wasn't accepting new patients.
