Medicinal cannabis

[Headache123]

Has anyone used medicinal cannabis and if so did it help you and how long did it take to have an effect?

Hello. I had a video consultation and 2 subsequent phone consultations with a doctor who prescribes medical cannabis. I can speak only about my personal experience. I have found the remote consultations very difficult because each and every time, the connection was bad and I could barely understand what was said. I have found that the products given were very much 'generic' ones and they can't be tailored to you, like it would be the case in the USA for instance, where you've got dispensaries. I have found the dosage very approximate and I had quite some bad side effects, unfortunately. It made me quite drowsy and tired and I got a very sore tongue and throat from the oil and felt terribly nauseous. Did nothing for the pain. If you can vape, I believe you're better off with this than the oil, however, not convenient at all, especially if you work full time and have nosy neighbours. I usually react very badly to medication and all kind of supplements, and sadly, medical cannabis (or at least the type and dosage given to me) was the last one on that list. I haven't totally given up and still intend to try another clinic (cheaper one). By the way, you will need a LOT OF cash to buy the stuff and I mean a lot.

I wish you all the best and good luck. I would be happy to hear back from you after you've tried it.

😃

Hi

Many thanks for your very helpful reply. Sorry to hear that it didn’t help you but sounds like it is worth trying another clinic.

I have started with a clinic and have had to adjust dosages with different aspects of medicinal cannabis and actually seems to be helping me a bit now.

Like yourself I’ve been through every single medication with horrible side-effects so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that this may finally help me As it is still early days so I still am assessing it

Good luck and let me know If helpful to have further discussion on the subject
