Rejected petition Make CBD on the NHS available to people with Fibromylagia

Fibromylagia is a chronic pain condition with no cure. With the goverment saying that people will be allowed to gain access to CBD on the NHS, many people including myself was excited to gain legal access to a drug which has been shown to help sufferers. However this has been denied at this time.

More details

Fibromyalgia is a difficult condition which is poorly understood. Further information is on the NHS website about the condition.

Many people with fibromyalgia have been made to take many pain killers which can be dangerous long term due to the fact there’s no cure for the condition. Like MS which has been allowed CBD use - it can be progressive and leaves suffers in extreme life altering pain.

Many people with fibromyalgia have tried buying CBD online / in stores and have had benefits from it.
