I have had my restless legs under control with low dose Mirapex
Yes! It is soo frustrating! I was recently prescribed Robinerole. I take an hour or so before be and that along with medical marijuana right before bed has really helped my sleep a lot of the time. Doesn't always work but does often and its the best help I've gotten so far.
Yes! Medical marijuana helps a lot, too. "RSO," also known as "Rick Simpson Oil" is great!
Hi guys,
I have a history of restless leg, too. My mother has severe RLS. The doctors put her on Requip, too, and it doesn't help that much.
Myself, I have been using CBD, and it actually helps for me, and I sleep better when I take it. I use about 25-30 mg during the day, and 50 mg at night for sleep, but you can adjust it more or less according to your need. If my RLS is bad, I will take around 75 mg. It is available over-the-counter.
I have what I consider nerve pain that feels like an electric current coursing throughout my body. It's horrible. I have found that quality CBD helps to calm that down or relieve it.
Anyway, that's been my experience.
I tried the weighted blanket and woke up with terrible pain from my neck to down my legs. I thought it was from the pressure on my body.
