Woman becomes first UK patient to get cannabis prescription
Woman becomes first UK patient to get cannabis prescription
She’s believed to be the first person to receive a prescription for cannabis in the UK.
Now Carly Barton has described her relief that she can take the drug without fear of repercussions.
Carly suffers constant pain after a stroke in her 20s. She was prescribed the cannabis medicine by the only kind of doctor who can do so – a specialist consultant – but it does come at a hefty cost.

I have a spinal disease and it really annoys that I have to take four different tablets aday and a 2weekly injection all for pain relief ,I despise the cowardly politicians who won’t allow us to use cannabis as pain relief

CANCARD IS A SCAM!
Damn she doesn’t have to hide behind dumpster like rest of us
This is exactly what the government had planned for the time it would be legalised in England , the cost, itβs shocking, police and government have been rising the price over the years , was and is a pre meditated plan, now coming to light,
being overrun by alcoholic idiots, Britain should welcome cannabis.
Iβm jealous
Legalise the herb
Β£2500 I’d be wanting some π₯for that!
Most places in England don’t prosecute for a few plants or small amounts in public anymore.

After being ripped off so many times . I was finally recommended to an online dispensary who delivered my order to my address without any complications. And their quality is the best I have had so far.

Thatβs three times as much as street cost. Obviously itβs medical grade but still that is absurd considering itβs prescription medication. Well done to the consultant and patient making a big step towards personal treatment plans in uk.

Cannabis should be legalised. Also regulate similar to how alcohol is regulated.
G.ps know plenty, about the positive benefits, but big pharma bully them to keep using man made poison
2500? Please keep the pharmaceutical companies away, please
Time to legalise it we donβt live in the dark ages anymore, the benefits far outweigh the negatives and itβs showing in legal countries
Β£2500 for 4 month, 30 grams a month just over 1 once a month.
If I get wrong for writing this I’ll flip, but she could get 4 ounces off the streets for about Β£600-700 saving her Β£1800.
3 years ago this was apparently a revelation, cost of living has sky rocketed in 2022, no one on disability benefits could afford it, let alone someone who can now work.
Biggest con in the UK pharmaceutical field and a slap in our faces.
Lucky woman
Β£2.5k ? Okay then
Why are we letting old people dictate whatβs good and whatβs bad
