Cannabis to help medical condition

[Pc-Gamer12]

A few months back I was diagnosed with a medical condition, and I've read online that one thing that really helps is to smoke cannabis, I just wondered if I asked my doctor can they prescribe it to you?

Thanks

No, it's not licenced for medical use in the UK.

Try some baking if it's medical use.

If you're asking where to get it................... i live in brighton so i'd just walk upto anyone anywhere and get a number.

As for your question No is the simple answer unless you were to go to certain US states and pay for your practice then you could be prescribed pot however i believe you'll have to get waivers and permits in order to continue usage in the UK... but then you'll have to go back to get another prescription when this runs out so I wouldn't advise it due to cost!

Just pay for your drugs like everyone else.

I have Chron's Disease, for which cannabis is quite effective against. I've used it in the past to help regulate myself, as it were, and found it quite effective. Definitely go for baking though as smoking involves tobacco, unless you want to buy a vape (awesome).

Well there is sativex, which is a cannabis based drug used to alleviate some of the symptoms of MS.

You can't smoke cannabis in a vape, they don't burn hot enough.

Unfortunately, We're way behind the US on this.. They've realised the HUGE medicinal properties of CBD's over there and allow people to self medicate. Over here we're stuck with some money making firm called GW pharma, Who get Cannabis leaf and turn it into a spray then sell it for £11 a day and make millions. :/

We'll catch up in a few years

I've read online there are magic sea turtles from outer space destined to appear in 2016. I'm sure it's all true.

Liking the Sarcasm but dude there are some seriously ****ed up conditions out there that the THC in Cannabis can actually do wonders to relieve the symptoms of Arthritis, MS, Glaucoma & can even help patients recover from Chemotherapy.

That's tripe, there is a huge and every growing vape market for cannabis and it's concentrates.

Those with MS can get prescribed Sativex if recommended by their doctor. Whilst it is chemically the same it is very expensive and you will find most people who use cannabis for medicinal purposes will recommend you eat edibles/vape/smoke it pure for the "full" medicinal effect. These can very strain to strain dependant on the CBD/THC make up, you will find most CBD dominant strains will relieve symptoms moreso than those higher in THC
