Mariol for Chronic Pain

I have been treated for Chronic pain post Cancers and therapies, and I am very tolerant to any Opiates.  I would like to try using Marinol (synthetic THC) for pain; it helped my pain as well as my nausea when I went through my Stem-cell Transplant.  I am in Athens, GA; does anyone know of a doctor willing to prescribe this medicine for pain (when you have not been diagnosed with a cancer...yet?)

I would check with a Reputable  “Pain Management “ Doctor. After over 9 years of Chronic Back Pain & Being an Liver Transplant Patient My Pain Management Doctor Just Perscribed Marinol.
( dronabinol 5mg)
Hoping it will Help with Pain & I’m hoping to get 3 or 4 benefits beside just pain relief. Supposed to take 3 times daily 1 hr before meals. Any Input Appreciated
