LCWRA and Medical Cannabis

geckobat

I'm sorry if this is a silly question but I need to settle my anxiety about it if possible.

I suffer with a lot of daily pain that doctors have never done much to help with all these years and it's just getting worse, so lately I've been considering applying for medical grade cannabis through one of the companies currently in the UK. I figure it might be worth a go for pain relief but I'm still reading up on it all.

But I'm on LCWRA and wondered if something like this could affect this in any way. Might be a daft question but I needed to ask regardless.

Heya @geckobat medicinal cannabis that has been prescribed by a doctor will be ok to use as that is legal. Though not all the places you see online will be legal, so please be very careful. I'd suggest speaking to your GP about this first.

Thank you very much, I'll definitely be careful. I think the one I was looking at is official, it's got good reviews on Trustpilot and seems to have all the government details. (Not sure if I'm allowed to mention it here or not). They ask for GP details and such to access NHS records so I'm assuming it's official.

It will not affect the LCWRA element.
