Long time SDN user, but I created this throwaway account for anonymity. I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma during OMS-1 in 2020. Took a leave of absence for treatment and praise God I’m in remission now. I still have residual pain (and all the oncologists and pain doctors have informed me this is extremely unusual with my diagnosis and chemo regimen). I take tramadol, medical marijuana and am about to start some kind of patch because with students returning to campus I know I will have an increase in pain.
Anyway, the point is that no one knows if my pain will go away. There is a chance I may still need pain medicine once I start OMS-3/4. I don’t really want my school to know I’m on MJ unless I have to disclose, so I am coming here for advice. I read my school’s clinical manual and it said students are drug tested for 10 substances and I’m guessing MJ is one of them, but I’m not positive. Is it acceptable to be on medical MJ? Can I just show the clinical sites my MJ card and that’s fine? Are there stipulations on taking it only at night (ie don’t come to clinical impaired)?How about in residency and beyond? Thanks for any insight you can give me!
