Free prescription charges for, Spondylitis/Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Petition Details

Spondylitis/Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome are auto-immune diseases effecting more than 500,000 people in the UK. Currently there is no cure, so the only way to manage the pain and flare up's is to take medication, taking 20 tablets+ daily.

Additional Information

I am petitioning for, any Spondylitis/Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Lupus sufferers to be given free prescriptions and and all above named conditions be added to the NHS exemption list. These conditions can affect any of us, no matter what age. Having to pay for prescriptions or prescription-pre-payment cards till you are 60 is not fair, they need to be added to the medical exemption format.
