The Board isn’t that coy, they know they are a target for being relegislated out of existence since committing mutiny against the Iowa Legislature, and we shouldn’t cut corners. I predicted the Board would vote down PTSD, and am pleasantly surprised this advanced. It doesn’t make sense not to pass it from a freedom point of view or American value point of view anyways, but the science makes these docs nervous most of the time. Glad to see they went with compassion here…now, patients wait for the next Board to consider and approve the petition before it is officially added to the program.

Here’s what Iowans have said so far during the Board meeting while watching MedPharm Iowa’s Livestream:
Jessan Gray You have a board, whom has a certain set of ideals and they won’t be changed with the times. They don’t care, they are reading their paper work not listening
Angela Kerr He is from NIDA
Shelley Sheehy How about rheumatoid arthritis?
Jerry Richards Trask Cbd is bunk meds… We need thc….
Jerry Richards Trask Big pharma backed people are the only people who do not support medical cannabis….
Stacy Phanhamath They need to understand that each case is different. But it’s up to us to decide what works best for us. It should not be up to our government to tell us that we can’t use a plant to heal.
Jerry Richards Trask Seems they blocked call ins on purpose… We will stand up as sick iowans and not allow our politicians to control our care any longer…
Toni Towner I think they should pass it because I have what they call RSD I have chronic pain all the time I’m on cannabidiol I need a stronger solution I would like to someday get off my meds I’m currently quitting smoking using the CBD pen and almost there there are positive outlooks if you pass this
Sherri Rose IOWA – Get on the Compassionate Side of History!
SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY for Restoration on SO MANY LEVELS.
SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY for Restoration on SO MANY LEVELS.
Replying to Jerry
MedPharm Iowa They listed a call-in number on the agenda, and did not even hook up a phone.
Andrew Gordon That’s not going to help. That’s improper representation by the board
Jerry Richards Trask Wow…
Stacy Dinnen McGee How is that even ok? Not hooking up a phone
Jerry Richards Trask Its not ok!!! They are not wanting to help sick iowans at all…. Big pharma backers are not for the sick…
Stacy Dinnen McGee It’s so sad and frustrating! Come on Iowa
Stacy Dinnen McGee Studies? This is bogus
Stacy Phanhamath They almost killed me with a fda approved rexulti
Andrew Gordon This board of representatives is a fucking joke!!! They’re not caring for the people, just what bias they personally believe in themselves!!
Jerry Richards Trask They are board members for our terrible gov Reynolds… This is what they want not what sick iowans need…
Angela Kerr Not compassion
Angela Weiland Of course there are no good studies because government has not taken a beneficial medicine off Schedule 1. So disappointing that a doctor would site lack of research. Grrrrrrrrr
Stacy Phanhamath Because it made me highly suicidal and made my diabetes so bad.
SunShine Trask 298 have signed. <— we all have a voice but are being silenced .. complete BS
Toni Towner Does CBD does not help you need to add THC
Jerry Richards Trask Come on sick iowans lets stand up to these corrupt paid for board members…
Toni Towner CBD in my case does not help you need to add the THC in it other than 3%
Stacy Phanhamath The fact that most states allow the medical cannabis. Directly suggests that there is in fact medical benefits to cannabis. The federal government needs to take cannabis off the schedule 1
Andrew Gordon CBD isn’t giving anyone a fucking high! Why is it being treated like an atom bomb?! And THC helps by a natural sign of how much medicine is enough for each patient separately. These board members need to actually do some research and stop representing their bias
Stacy Phanhamath It’s changed my life to allow me to function in society
Stacy Dinnen McGee Other states are seeing facts and studies to say this works. Why Iowa why?
Jerry Richards Trask This is about big pharma paying them off… Stop the BS!!!!
Angela Weiland So disappointing from doctors
Stacy Phanhamath Have they considered the fact that Illinois will have recreational cannabis available by January 2020. And how that’s going to effect Ioa
Jerry Richards Trask It was decided against before anyone even spoke today… Very sad day for sick iowans… 😥
Stacy Phanhamath Would they rather have us self medicate? That’s completely insane.
Jerry Richards Trask Mn has the best hospital in the world mayo and there medical canbabis has Ptsd…. Iowa is a joke corrupt paid for state…
Stacy Phanhamath Personal demons??
MedPharm Iowa DO THE RIGHT THING.
Angela Kerr Good for Dr James Miller
Andrew Gordon What is the harm of THC? Where are those facts?!
Amy Hill NO LIVES HAVE BEEN LOST TO CANNABIS. GET ON BOARD WITH THE MAJORITY
Stacy Phanhamath It’s not about them prescribing. Let us work that out with our individual doctors and professionals
Dave N Rita Vanderheiden Who is the young guy in front of the camera? Way to go Dr. Miller
Stacy Phanhamath Approve it
Tayler Coombs Studies have been on the way for the federal government for yearsssssss
Amy Hill GIVE PEOPLE THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE AND NATURAL MEDICINES THATS BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES.
Stacy Phanhamath WHO is not the standard
Stacy Phanhamath World health organization doesn’t look at medical cannabis that’s regulated
Jerry Richards Trask Really the sick get worse with cannabis… I call BS….
Toni Towner Oh you are so funny it is not going to worsen it if anything it will make it better
Elizabeth Anne Lemke Please my symptoms got way way worse with the ssris amd snris shoved down my throat then any thc did.
Stacy Phanhamath Approved here is a start.
Tayler Coombs CBD ok?!?!? Now what essential oils and crystals?!?
Jerry Richards Trask Yes yes yes
MedPharm Iowa 4 YES, 2 NO!
PTSD is approved and goes to the board of medicine for final approval!
Stacy Phanhamath So we’ll follow them.
Angela Weiland Such BS Are there any persons of color on this board?
Replying to Angela
SunShine Trask not that i have seen
Stacy Phanhamath No. Heck in these rural counties just being brown is a crime in itself
Tayler Coombs Shouldn’t the people in the date of Iowa make decisions not some bs board?!?
Tayler Coombs State
SunShine Trask someone hook the phone up

MedPharm Iowa There is no phone to hook up, we asked. Seems unfair.
Angela Kerr Hook up the phone
Daniel Swick Phone
Angela Kerr Shelly Servadio should be there
SunShine Trask there is a number.. but no phone to hook up
Stacy Phanhamath There aren’t pharmaceutical products to help with this issue
Daniel Swick Phone please
Tayler Coombs Where is tommy Chong? He knows what is up
Stacy Phanhamath Having to call the police because we can’t keep these people safe in the community. It’s heartbreaking
Kathy Pyles Come on Iowa get with the deal here. People need this to survive….get’er done ✔✔✔
Replying to Tayler
Angela Kerr He died from too much THC. lol
Tayler Coombs Tommy is alive
Stacy Phanhamath But that’s not your issue. Let it be available for families to help treat these people
Tayler Coombs CBD is a shame
MedPharm Iowa Regarding the phone (or lack of): We are not responsible for organizing this meeting. The organizers listed a phone number in the agenda, but neglected to bring a phone to hook up. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this.
Tayler Coombs iowa
