And regarding the further processing, it depends on the product and how it’s taken. Maybe it’s just less controlled where I am, because you can buy just about anything you want with a medical card and there are plenty of thca products available.

But you’re obviously in a unique situation and the stuff works for your friends, so my guess seems a lot less likely!

Yeah it's pretty regulated here, you present your evidence for being a medical cannabis candidate to your GP/PCP (or they tell you they think you're a candidate) who refers to you to a clinic that specialises in cannabis, the intake appointment was 2 hours long, they prescribe specific products based on your symptoms and needs, then script gets sent to a compounding chemist and you go and pick up the medication from the chemist, the same chemist that you'd go to for advil and beta blockers.
