This week, the Illinois Department of Public Health added sickle cell disease and polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS) with chronic pain to the state's list of "debilitating conditions” that qualify for treatment with medical marijuana.

Doctors can now approve the treatment for patients suffering from either of the condition.

The two new additions bring the total number of qualifying debilitating conditions to 58 in Illinois.
