Is proven to help spasticity hence you can get Sativex on the NHS for getting similar affects to cannabis without the high (though users of Satiivex have said there is still a little bit of a high!). Also, the study just looks at whether it halts the progression of MS and not the well-being of the patient. If your mind and your body is more relaxed, then this is a good thing....just a shame you can't get prescribed high-grade for free ;)U

Hello. Was just saying to Ophelia that my youngest daughter (24yr old rock chick/wild child)suggested I try a smoke to help curb severe tremors/twitching. At first I found it quite enjoyable and couldn't stop laughing. However, when I went to bed, it only seemed to heighten the problem and I couldn't stop shaking. Will not be trying that again in a hurry! Worth the experience,though. I'm a bit of a woose and had never experimented with weed, pot, whatever you want to call it. That said, I have found the severe twitching more unsettling than the loss of coordination and poor balance as it prevents me getting to sleep. Admittedly, I do rely on sleep pills, but for the first 15 minutes or so, I cannot control my body movements and it is exhausting. It is predominatly down my right side and most distressing, especially for my partner as he feels so helpless.
