A terminal condition diagnosed by a physician other than the qualified physician issuing the physician certification.


Chronic nonmalignant pain - "caused by a qualifying medical condition or that originates from a qualifying medical condition and persists beyond the usual course of that qualifying medical condition"
​

Florida law allows doctors to certify patients with medical conditions of the same kind or class as or comparable to those enumerated in paragraphs (a)-(j).  When debilitating, these may include but are not limited to:​

  • Anxiety

Oklahoma Patient

In Oklahoma, there are no defined set of qualifying conditions.  Therefore the Physician will determine if your condition is eligible.  Most common qualifying conditions for a certification are:

​

(a) Chronic Pain
(b) Anxiety 
(c) Depression
(d) HIV/AIDS
(e) Epilepsy
(f)  Migraines
(g) Cancer
(h)    Crohn’s disease
(i)  Parkinson’s disease
(j)  Multiple sclerosis


Please note that this is not a comprehensive list of conditions one can use to apply for an Oklahoma OMMA.  A Physician may use any debilitating condition where the benefits outweigh the risks of using medical cannabis.
