Restless Leg Syndrome...

[ACGreenJeans]

My SO just started used MJ medicinally this year, but hadn't had RLS kick in yet. She hates to smoke so she limits herself to just when she needs it. (once I get a good harvest I'm going to get some tincture going. Maybe invest in a volcano some day when I can afford it better).

So the other night she's just freaking out...and I ask her if she's got RLS...she says yes (and she'd had it the previous night too and got hardly any sleep unknown to me). I remind her she has some medicine downstairs. Her: "Does it work for that"? Me: "I've heard it does, but only one way to find out".

So she tokes up from the bong, coughs and complains about the smoke like usual. About 20 minutes later we are laying in bed and she's perfectly still.
Me: "Sounds like it worked?"
Her: "hmphh? whuh? Oh..yah...I mean I can still feel it but it's like it is way off in the distance".

She had a great nights sleep.:D

Ive never asked my DR about RLS.. but some nights i wake up in the middle of the night with a buzzing pain in my knee, and my girlfriend says that while im sleeping i shake my legs sometimes.. but i honestly thought that was one of those made up things that the side effects of the pills they give you are worse then the actual problem...

my hands,feet,arms and legs hurt all the time and I get restless legs everynight anymore(liver damage) so RLS could be a symptom of liver problems, a couple of blood tests and eliminating fat may help :D

i know of someone who has this. after sometime they finally went to the doc. the doc sent them to a sleep clinic.

after getting some tests it was discovered that the person has narcolispy (sp), a sleeping disorder. they also discovered that this person could fall asleep in less than 5 mins, during regular day hours. as we know its suppose to take a lot longer. in the end they determined that this persons legs were also keeping this person from getting a good night sleep which made day sleep happen so quickly.

this person isn't much of a smoker and ended up on pills to sleep and pills to stay awake.
