@CBP Hey! I’m just looking for information about travelling to the US from the UK with prescription cannabis oil, as I use it to treat epilepsy. Any advice welcome! Thanks! :)

For all my grumbling - without medical cannabis I wouldn’t be able to sit and enjoy a bit of solo time without having a panic attack or worrying I was going to have a seizure. I wouldn’t feel comfortable watching the world go by. @mamedicauk#CannabisCommunity
Originally it felt patient centred and led, I felt listened to and respected, but the last few weeks have me worried. Over the last 2/3 weeks I’ve put in three repeat requests, received two invoices and one delivery of a fifth of my meds with the wrong invoice.
Trying to get through to @mamedicauk at the moment is feeling really difficult.
As an epilepsy and anxiety patient, I’ve found myself concerned that the first time I’ve had to sort my repeats it’s meant being without medication.
Now, I’m aware that there have been issues with stock and an influx of new patients but the quality of communication and accessibility have taken a sudden downturn, I can’t sit in phone queues for hours, not around work or parenting.
It’s not realistic.
Hullo @bhx_official! I’m travelling next month, but I have a cannabis prescription. As an anxious epileptic, how do I make this as smooth as possible? ✈️🍃
@robert3424@phil_w888 Not that are prescribed - I’m prescribed thc containing flower, which is vaped only. Consultants orders, and obviously it being an airport its a touchy subject. I just may need to medicate in the hours between check in and being on a plane. (I wouldn’t do it on it!) 😂
@bhx_official I understand about “smoking and vaping” but should I need to medicate after check in, what are my options? Because it’s used to control seizure activity it’s required as and when.
I don’t smoke my medication, I have to vaporise it as directed by my dr.
@MEDCANSupport ? :/
@bhx_official I’m just concerned that there’s no provision to find somewhere for me to safely & securely take medication. It feels maybe discriminatory because of the type of meds?
@bhx_official But it’s prescribed privately by a consultant, I have my prescription and can get a clinic letter, will it not be a problem? Will I be able to use it anywhere to medicate in the airport?
