Anyone prescribed cannabis-based medicine to cope with their MS?
✨Hello MS fam!
Has anyone been prescribed any form of🌱 cannabis-based medicine by their healthcare professionals to help cope with and improve quality of life with MS?
I am desperate to get access to help predominantly with sleep troubles and neuropathic pain.
Personally, I have had no success using high quality CBD tinctures, oils, and topical creams but when I tried low-dose THC gummies (5mg) when back home in the States, I felt immense relief from the neuropathic pain I experience daily and could relax and sleep more deeply than ever. And best of all, had no head high!
Doctors in Sweden are skeptic towards everything cannabis-related and there are many obstacles one most overcome to get prescribed medical cannabis.
What has been your experience with cannabis in helping to manage your MS? Is anyone receiving a prescription? Have you spoken with your healthcare team about this? What has been their response? Please share your experiences below! I'd appreciate it tremendously.
Much love, Alexa 💞

Hi, not sure how it works in Sweden, but the Doctor may have to be a licensed prescriber. Definitely worth checking that the health care provider can prescribe this medication. All the best.
@Clary Thanks for responding! Yes, this is also the case here in Sweden 🇸🇪 from what I understand.
