Fund cannabis prescriptions for fibromyalgia and other pain conditions

Closed 257 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the government to fund the NHS to prescribe medical cannabis for people with fibromyalgia and other severe pain patients. Some people find that the prescription meds currently prescribed do not work.
I think medical cannabis could give a better quality of life to those suffering from these sorts of debilitating conditions. I think that if the government prescribe medical cannabis, it could help people with chronic pain to get their lives back, enjoy family time and contribute positively to society.
