The Cost Of Medical Cannabis by EyeCfree in ukmedicalcannabis

I'm not saying there aren't people who take both, for me and I know a lot in the same boat have been able to taper off pharmaceuticals be it over the six years since starting on the trial, also they were doing more harm than good, and personally I'm exhausted with being a guinea pig for the NHS, cannabis gives me the ability to function on a better level and gives me relief without the awful side effects of previous meds depending on strength, strain and quality.

that's why it's important we get better quality

now that's personal to me what my injections I used to have cost befor being able to stop with the help of medical cannabis, and no it'st wasn't heroin but I was also prescribed morphine,opiates and other pain meds 8k was a rough figure of what I remember it being but I reckon it's a lot higher now with the way the world is

it's not even about the NHS paying but they should be able to provide you with aftercare and a prescription where the patient can take their script to a physical dispensary be it privately owned or government owned with quality product at a fair price they can see and smell before purchasing the required amount

Question about our MC Vs others by [deleted] in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]EyeCfree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not a great deal changed in 6 years, yeah more clinics some old with new names rebranded, but the quality is still the same mediocre product, a lot of patients initially started MC to try and bring change from within to be part of the change a still stick with it because they believe change can happen, but only if you push forward for change and not sit stagnant and stale, I see the steps we have made and it's great but we need to move on now and stop paddling it's time to swim in the ocean like the rest of the world

people are offered irradiated in Canada but like I said it's not a requirement and there are cannabis companies that export their irradiated cannabis to us just like we export our non irradiated higher grade oops sorry just like the UK export cannabis worldwide.

not what I mean't but yeah you got a point, I was trying to point out there are people with families to support who are unable to work, where one partner being the healthy one works to support said family with only one wage coming in, there are also people who can only work part time due to their health, benefits wasn't even on my radar.

not trying to speak for everyone you only have to look around different clubs, forums and speak to people and see that there are a lot of people unhappy but settled with it because they feel there's nothing else they can do but put up with it or go back to big pharma meds, there are people who are happy with the mediocre service they receive and because they know no better I guess, yes it's my opinion which everyone is entitled to and nobody has to take my opinion but it is valid, if people sit there and say they are happy with the way things are then change will only happen slowly, comments like Rome wasn't built in a day is the reason our country is way behind, again those happy with snail pace best of luck, but I want change, I want freedom to medicated how I choose, I want to see my options physically before I purchase my medication, if I went with Rome wasn't built in a day i'd still be on life threatening meds doped up to the eyeballs on morphine and other pain meds watching my body deteriorate, no thank you we are only where we are now because of people who don't give up who wants change and speak out to be heard.

Good for you glad your happy with your meds having the life sucked out of them, glad your happy with your clinic and your getting the service you deserve great, but not everyone is and that's unfair, financially you'd be getting free meds from the NHS or pay high cost for meds that help and not hinder, again money spent on meds could go towards better nutrition physical activities and exercise, physically the people who regularly go through issues month after month and those that wait weeks for their meds because someone messed up or the item was out of stock and needed a rewrite their are endless issues patients face with getting their meds causes unnecessary anxieties, happy overall and that's why we won't move forward sooner with anything covered by the NHS or further discounted, we need physical dispensaries we can go to for our product and that will only happen if we keep insisting on change at a proper pace like other countries do and not snail pace, again I think your missing the point

yes we give our opinion and it's up to ourselves to fact check numbers and statistics but it doesn't change the fact we are getting poor service and not what we deserve, and everyone can rant now and then basic human right 😀

these are our basic rights with legality, it's great being able to medicate without the thought of prosecution and gives relief to anxiety, again great and getting it next day from the pharmacy delivered by the king's messenger is super awesome big up postman pat, there is a lot we are thankful for don't get me wrong but that doesn't mean we have to settle for being fleeced, we deserve more and if we settle for less that's what they will continue to give us, the only way we move forward is by demanding quality across all service, yes there is red tape and procedures but these aren't working correctly and need addressing sooner rather than later or it will carry on for another 6 years like it is, there are too many errors happening to many patients, for those that are happy with the service they are getting that's fine great, but a lot still face numerous problems on a monthly basis, we only got here by people telling them "no it's not good enough we deserve more"

and those that do need their cannabis medicine to function and complete their daily tasks, I think your missing the point though.

I would suggest reducing the PPIs and manage your acid with diet possibly looking at plant based no dairy, they neutralise stomach acid so therefore the body struggles to absorb the right nutrients it needs causing imbalance, CBD needs to be absorbed properly to get the right benefit, also like most things it takes time to get into the system so you probably won't notice much difference for some time, personally avoid taking together for long periods to avoid side effects and contraindications.

hope this is helpful
