Absolutely no offence taken, Tracey, I’m really quite appalled that you are made to feel like a criminal in the first place, and if it works for you, you should have it, I really am in favour of legalising it. (For anyone really, not just medical - but definitely for medical).
Bet they’re regretting opening this can of worms already…
I really don’t mean to offend anyone, but I do feel quite strongly about it - you can probably tell - so if I have offended anyone, please accept my apologies.

Why is a can of worms,
your opinions are valid, but that’s all they are opinions,
if you’ve got MS, why wouldn’t you applaud the MS Society’s stance.
i don’t get it, if some one is in pain and can medicate now and get some relief? Why can’t you let people make their own medicinal choices with their bodies, I’m sorry but dealing with MS is hard enough, every week I loose the ability to do something else, if I can help I will, not everyone will join me, but it’s individual choice, to discount a medication that’s been proven to work for thousands based in your opinion int helpful
how would you like it if you were told this?
For what it’s worth, my two pennorth -
(1) it should be legal - for everyone - we’re all grownups!
(2) there should be proper science done to establish the benefits, appropriate dosage etc.
(3) I only have mild spasticity but I would like to have options if & when it got worse. Several people on here talk about the unpleasant effects of the only pharmaceuticals available (e.g. Baclofen makes you fall over) - would like to think evidence-based alternatives are coming down the pipeline!
The evidence is there already, try google scholar, search for MS and cannabis,
if you only have mild spasticity I’d certainly look at CBD for sure,
These guys are CBD experts who we work closely with,
if you need any help. Let me know x
