hello everyone thought id update anyone interested in our fight to get sativex on prescription,we went to the pain clinic today to find out wether they could get my missus on sativex as she has multiple conditions that dont respond to even the strongest opiates and nerve drugs.we have been refused,no surprise there then!.but what amazed me most was the consultant telling us that he is not even allowed to prescribe it for the patients with ms!for fuck sake,thats what it was made for in the first place!even the sufferers on the original drug trials have had it withdrawn!WHY,greed plain and simple outright greed!the big pharma who make it charge 170 quid for one months supply to the nhs!i have looked and the same medicine can be bought in the us for 20 dollars!!!while i realise that it costs a lot of money to launch any new drug,this is absolute extortion,i am going to apeal there decision though out of principle,they cant be allowed to get away with treating people in need like this!i am seriously thinking of a big guerilla grow somewere and make shit loads of oil and just give it to anyone who can prove they really need it.even if i get knicked for it im past caring,i been to jail before and that dont bother me,except then the missus would be on her own.so my conclusion has to be that our goverment sees us as nothing more than guinea pigs that they can test there drugs on then even if they work take them away again!!!does anyone else feel that this has to change?would anyone in sussex area be interested in helping me set up something,ie someone to help my missus should it come to that?i am 100% serious i have the skills enough to do the grow but not wanting to end up with my missus stuck on her own.any genuine help would be great.ps to any mods reading this thread i am sorry if it breaks any forum rules,this is the first time i have done please forgive a desperate hippy!
