    A patient of Sapphire Medical Clinics 100% Satisfaction Thanks - Medical cannabis has helped me so much with chronic pain as traditional medications like opioids and many others seam to cause other health conditions. I found the traditional medications caused me further implications and personally found they are no good after long-term use and the addiction was like going through hell getting - getting off prescribed opioids never again for me. I was able to get of such addiction and also lost 3 stone of weight using Medical Cannabis. Thanks Sapphire for leading such a good example of real help for patients.

      As a prospective client with sapphire and also an codeine user.....did you use the cannabis to get off the codeine and did it help with withdrawals as im needing off these horrific meds and hope sapphire accept me.

      @@freckles1874 It did help because there was no way I was coming off them otherwise I was getting so ill I was taking dihydrocodeine on strongest dose. But it will still be very hard to stop and will power a lot of patience and a gradual decrease in medication as advised by your doctor! In terms of withdrawal like eating resting sleep it helped but its amazing how powerful opioids are they take over your emotions, life, feelings and caused me stomach issues and bloating and weight gain. Cannabis seems to reverse a lot and encourage eating resting sleeping to get better in my opinion a healthier way for me. I also lost 3 stone that I believe Dihydrocodeine made me put on never in my life have I put on weight but all the weight has gone!
      But I respect we are all different giving up opioids was hell for about 4 months and ive been clean for 3 months off GP prescribed opioids. I have vaped every day since then and I will never ever contemplate new age medications. I prefer the real traditional herbal medication cannabis I truly believe it has benefits to help re balance our bodies and minds but it does take time and patience nothings a quick fix and if you have exhausted all other things with your General Practitioner then I would highly suggest giving Sapphire a go and discussing with them till you get the medications that suit you for your wellbeing. I feel like sapphire has been professional and listened to me all the way through. The quality of there medical product is so clean and feels organic. No pesticides or inorganic matter. I feel safe consuming it and feel a benefit. I hope that helps welcome to ask me anything should you have any further questions. As a patient I try to give honest feedback to help others in similar situations I suffer from Chronic pain and wish to help others discover potential help because it can be lonely suffering and feeling like your alone with such feeling. I hope everyone finds the right support whatever it is even if cannabis is not for you I think if you have tried everything then why not give it a try and see for yourself! Its UK Medically legal when prescribed through Sapphire Clinics so your be Legal above board - and the best judge regarding what is good for you in the world is you! Wishing all good health!

      @@Jamie589 thank you so much for your open and honest reply. You really have given me faith that I can be pharmaceutical free and the absolute fear I have of withdrawals from the codeine (seen others do it) will be dealt with. Im fed up being handed tablet after tablet after tablet from the age of 16 to now 43. The meds have eaten away at my bones and the side effects I have from all the medication I am on is just a vicious circle. I just want to feel and dream again and like yourself some weight loss would be a bonus as know its more bloating than actual weight. Im tired of pain and im tired of anxiety and im also tired from the meds and I need something to change. I hope and pray I am accepted and that I can start a prescription as soon as possible. Thanks again for your answer and information you've given me hope x

      @@freckles1874 Your welcome. Please be strong and never give up. Taper down slowly as per doctors advice. And don't rush coming of tablets. It'd still really hard to stop but if your motivated enough your do it but it will take many months after to feel like you get passed the addiction of pharmaceuticals. Yes I felt the same my whole well being was ruled by tablets and if I missed a tablet I would literally be withdrawing. I drank complan for about 4 months to top up with nutrients and was mostly bed bound giving up. So please give it your all and all your patience because you can do it but remember to keep persevering and don't give in it will get better it just takes longer then I expected but I don't have no desire now and never looking back at all. I Hope you find the strength to achieve your goals please do things ever so gradual long term use of prescribed opioids/codeine is physical and mental addiction. When I stopped dihrdrocodeine j had limited support because It was during covid lock down and access to services was literally not possible. And when I called a detox they wanted to charge me £7000 to help me get off the dihydrocodeine I was lime hell no and doctors never helped me get off at my GP I did it myself and every day I vaped cannabis to distract my mind and help with pain. Helped with nausea but be prepared that opioids are so overpowering you will vomit and have stomach issues so be prepared to go through this and hopefully you have someone to watch over you because it's a journey indeed. Once you do it your be so proud of yourself for being able to stop one of the most addictive substances pharmaceutical grade heroin from your local doctor works but after long term it just like sticking a small plaster on a large wound. Cannabis however puts the body in a balance. It may take sometime to feel the positive effects physically and mentally but with every Journey starts with one foot in the direction and continuation till you arrive. Good Luck all the way to you @crazybunny

      @@Jamie589 awww Jamie your a wee godsend. I've weaned off lots already but can't deny that if im having a 'bad day' ill take some. Pain is hard to deal with and without saying too much I do use RSO....but thats not legal and the fear I have ordering and getting delivery sometimes isn't worth it. I feel I cannot access the type of flower I need in a consistent way and some sativas can make me worse mentally. I know with sapphire it will be grown properly and cleanly and hopefully it helps me. I've done sooo much work holistically and self healing that I HAVE to get off the pharmaceuticals for my own health but already worry aboit how I'm going to feel. I do have some support and a live in teen so he will be able to help me and he will be proud too! I just want to feel to heal 🙏🏼 trauma and abuse over the years has taken a toll on me mentally and physically but feel the meds are actually making me worse. Have a blessed day Jamie and thanks again for you openess and advice. I was offered methadone to come off Dihydrocodeine!!!! What help is that?? So wrong

    I have decided to give a medical clinic a try which I’ve got told about a long time ago. I got told off my Cancard so I apparently have heard that the cannabis and pricing for 1 ounce is what I pay for mine. Hopefully is the right information that I have been told And I will go from there I’m in the process of joining Sapphire medical clinic

    I am on anticoagulants so cannot take anti inflammatories. I take 2x30mg codeine with paracetamol twice a day for spinal arthritis. And 3x300 mg Gabapentin for sciatica and low back pain and restless leg syndrome. I have been on this for 7 yrs with no problem and can in fact cut down in periods of hot sunshine. I challenge these anti opioid campaigners to live with constant pain and not seek relief.
    I have had a shoulder replacement where doing the necessary exercises keeps the post operative pain going but am facing a problem with GP getting my regular pain dose increased to accommodate this temporary problem.

    Cannabis was used for recreational purposes,and isn’t that answering one of the most important aspects of life and recovery from illness and therefore long term conditions that impede recreational enjoyment should benifet from its use just as much as say it’s pain relief benifets . Life is for living which is in part recreation which benifets holistic well-being .
