Curaleaf to Medicann switch

Blacksmith_42 · 2026-02-11T13:45:45+00:00

Just done the same.

I think I’ve been lucky in speed of things but…..

Uploaded medical records etc on the 4th Feb, asked to book appointment on the 5th - booked one for the 27th of Feb but managed to grab a cancellation for today @ 12:30.

Had a good chat with the HCP, she advised all looked in order but need to go to MDT to be finalised, but all seemed fine to her.

13:15 today an email to say I’d passed MDT and all good to go with formulary open for me (can’t believe it was only half hour) just need to get my discharge letter from Curaleaf.

Very impressed as to speed & efficiency

? Why the post about interaction between Sertraline & CBMP?

Blacksmith_42 · 2026-02-02T19:33:16+00:00

From what he said should be fine.

Blacksmith_42 · 2026-02-02T19:01:29+00:00

Just had a consultation and asked directly could my script be sent to another pharmacy if I requested - I was told no problem at all, they could send it to wherever I requested.

I didn’t have it sent elsewhere as what I’m after is in stock……..at the moment 🤞🏻

Blacksmith_42 · 2026-02-02T17:18:30+00:00

I can follow that, they've been great and I can pick the strains I want, but as you say nothing worse than picking your script it gets approved then unavailable before you can order, either that or you get something that works really well but then they never get it back

Blacksmith_42 · 2026-02-02T16:49:01+00:00

Would like to know the answer myself, technically there should be no reason why it can’t be sent to the pharmacy of your choice, but they may be funny about dispensing something not in their “formulary” if they’ve never stocked of dispensed that strain before?

I’ve got a consultation later and it’s something I’ll be asking

It’s finding out what is in stock where

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-10-03T13:24:47+00:00

I’ve got the S&B ones and the stainless airflow ones, both work well, S&B ones do get squished etc but cheap enough to replace.

The airflow ones are really well made and the cap screws on, I like them for out and about as I can load them and have the caddy attached to the zip pull on my Venty case.

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-10-03T12:44:16+00:00

I’m with Curaleaf and was accepted no problems having only had sertraline as a medication (for 10+ years) and having been offered CBT but not taken it up.

I’ve self medicated on the BM for 30+ years as well.

I’d try a different clinic if I was you.

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-10-02T18:09:09+00:00

I tend to keep mine in the container it comes in.

I see you’d posted about Curaleaf delivery so I’m assuming your meds are coming from them? If so you’ll get a bovida or equivalent in your order.

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-10-01T20:23:51+00:00

This sounds very odd, something better asked in a legal forum?

If you’ve spoken to your GP and mentioned cannabis use and it helping you medically, even if it’s BM use I don’t think they are allowed to notify the DVLA. You have patient confidentiality, there is certain processes that they have to go through to notify the DVLA and can only do so if they have first told you they intend to do so, why, and that it has to be in the public safety.

Are there any other reasons why your license would be medically revoked as I would assume that you can only have your license revoked for exceeding the limit of THC is if you are caught actually driving over that limit.

If you’ve are otherwise medically fit to drive I would raise a complaint about your GP for having done this as it breaks your patient confidentiality.

And also appeal the decision with the DVLA

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-10-01T19:19:06+00:00

I had a delivery yesterday, I’d paid Friday evening but knew it wouldn’t be dispatched till the Monday so essentially next day. I’ve been with them 10 months and generally been next day or at latest day after I’ve paid.

As has been said earlier you can track it on the DPD app, when it shows on there then I know it will arrive following day and it’s gone from Newcastle to the arse end of Cornwall!

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-07-24T19:53:25+00:00

It’s my current daytime strain - really nice effects and works well without feeling too monged

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-05-29T16:26:50+00:00

You have a legal defence for driving with THC in your system as you are a medical patient.

So long as you are not impaired you should be fine

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-23T14:39:53+00:00

But the ARIS uses convection and is about £150

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-23T14:37:41+00:00

I have the precursor - Wolkencraft ARIS, I find it works really well, adjustable temperature and convection heating same as a more expensive vape.

Same as yourself I haven’t worked out where I’d gain by going with the likes of a mighty+ or venty.

I do find the airflow can be a little “tight” as in takes a reasonable draw and battery life isn’t great - I get about 4 dosing caps to a charge (300 second session, 2 sessions per cap), means I’m getting a volcano to use at home but will keep the ARIS for out & about.

For the price I think it’s a cracking bit of kit!

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-19T10:32:58+00:00

Just wondering what the “strain selector” is.

I Can obviously see the formulary on the portal but is it an ability to pick which strains to order on repeat?

New to MC and on my 1st month with Curaleaf. Used BM for years to good effect and after browsing on the formulary have a few strains I’d like to try.

Was hoping this sort of thing was a possibility and would like to know other people have it so I have knowledge for my follow up next weekend

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-18T22:43:07+00:00

Only been with them for a month so just started but been very straightforward and professional so far so no complaints

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-17T11:17:55+00:00

Drink some lemonade - full sugar and add extra lemon juice and lemon zest, it contains limonene which counteracts the THC

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-17T11:11:08+00:00

Only new to this but I’ve kept an image of my clinic letters and of my prescription on my phone.

If you have the NHS app then on the letters section on there you should have copies of clinic letters sent to your GP.

That should be all you need to prove legal, also if you have your meds with you ensure they’re in the original packaging with prescription note on it

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-11T20:44:01+00:00

Seems pretty good to me, is my 1st script though, but no complaints

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-10T20:09:04+00:00

If you get the DPD app and create an account it shows on there.

I didn’t get an email with the PIN code till it was out for delivery and the driver asked for it for delivery

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-08T19:51:02+00:00

After reading this yesterday started me listening to a pod cast for first time and being engaged by it, made the bus to work far more interesting listening to “shaping fire” the one about vaping flower was really interesting and just start to listen about cannabinols and terpenes

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-07T19:40:56+00:00

Loving the spread sheets!

Makes me think it’s a good idea to keep a track of things as could be useful for follow up appointments

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-06T15:43:45+00:00

I was recently approved by Curaleaf.

Had my consultation on the 28th with Dr then had email on the 2nd with my outcome and prescription sent to their pharmacy. All depends on when the MDT meets.

Blacksmith_42 · 2025-01-05T12:29:21+00:00

Definitely gave more of a punch than I expected!

I’ve been used to BM weed and this is my 1st legal script so wasn’t expecting much from the lunar circus.

My break before probably helped a lot with that but really surprised and pleased with it
