Hi and sorry for your pain, it must be so difficult. I actually did a petition over a year ago and spoke with the managing director of the company who make Sativex. He explained the the drug could only be used for MS (I was hoping it could be made available for BD patients). Basically it is down to numbers and money and they cannot continue to try Italy do more research u less they are getting the m eye to do so. It is really all down to politics, but I wish you well and hop you get further than I did.
