Tell us about your condition.
“I, unfortunately, got diagnosed with a non-cancerous brain tumour, the first procedure I had should have been straightforward forward but unfortunately I collapsed 19 minutes after the procedure and when I came around I had a stammer.
After speaking normally for 53 years and then suddenly not being able to do normal things. Things like making a doctor’s appointment or booking a meal”
Have you tried traditional drugs prescribed by the doctors?
“I’d not had any luck with conventional treatments so when I first spoke to Medicann, obviously I was desperate to get help with my stammer because by then I’d had it for four years. I didn’t dream it would work as well as it did and my own GP was shocked as well he couldn’t believe the change in me from one appointment to the next”
How did you find your experience with Medicann?
“The thing I like about Medicann is I feel they really do care. I’m delighted that they are delighted for me, it’s really nice to be able to walk into the pharmacy to pick up my prescription and speak to them in a normal manner, it’s fantastic and I really hope they can see what a difference they’ve made to my life. I just can’t praise them highly enough”
