We reported earlier this month that "Proponents of medical marijuana are pushing the Arizona Department of Health Services to include post-traumatic stress disorder in its list of qualifying conditions." Although Arizona is still grappling with how to properly and efficiently implement the state's voter-approved medical marijuana program, that hasn't stopped The Department of Health Services from considering these requests to add to the list of conditions that would qualify for medical marijuana use under state law.

The department will hold a hearing today regarding adding post-traumatic stress disorder, migraines, depression, and general anxiety disorder to the list of medical marijuana qualifying conditions that already includes cancer, AIDS, chronic pain, muscle spasms, glaucoma, and hepatitis C.
