Synthetic Cannabinoid JWH-018 - - Works For Me
I tried Marijuana for RLS. It worked great. One or two tokes and I can feel my legs start to relax. It wasn't really enough to make me "high". The problem is that where I live it's highly illegal. Then I found out about a synthetic cannabinoid called JWH-018. It's a cannabinoid but it's ch...

I've been considering Kratom. My doctor gave me Mirapex but that has to be taken every day and I only have RLS symptoms a couple times a week so I'm looking for something that I can take occasionally and Kratom looks promising. You will need to do your own research into it however. I'm far from an e...

Just refound the forum
For some strange reason a couple months ago Windows decided to do one of those little glitchy things and I suddenly found that all my bookmarks had disappeared. Now I usually keep good backups. Being a computer technician I see a lot of people loose irreplaceable data but this time when it happened ...

Thinking of trying Kratom
I've been trying some of the ethnobotanicals for RLS and so far only limited success with Salvia Divinorum. It settles the legs down but it's effects only last 45 minutes or so and the hallucinogenic properties distract from sleep. Recently however I have found out about Kratom. It's an opioid simil...

Memory foam will be a little hotter than a regular mattress because you are surrounded more by the foam. You might want to try a memory foam mattress cover. It's not as deep so you don't sink in as far. Of course it'll transmit more movement too. I've been using a memory foam mattress cover for just...

This post was interesting to me...esp since the side effects of MJ are potentially much less than the side effects of some of the other drugs prescribed for RLS. I haven't smoked pot in well over a decade, but I have several friends who do, so access wouldn't be difficult for me. My question is: ha...

Rut-ro. Several years ago we were in Indiana on a mini vacation. We were in the middle of NOWHERE and DH loves to speed. He was going about 100 at one point. Several miles later we were in a town and a sheriff pulled us over. Never did know if it was from the air or how he knew, because he certainl...

Not tried Tai Chi, is it ok if you have arthritis? Some doctors recommend it for arthritis. It uses slow broad full range joint movements with no impact which makes it excellent for arthritis plus it's supposed to free up the energy in your body to give an overall health benefit. I've Never been on...

Hi estelle. For the iron thing do get tested. I'm still learning about RLS but a lot of disorders especially neurological ones the exact number doesn't matter as much as what it takes to relieve symptoms. Doctors call this a replacement model. Your nerves don't have enough of a certain chemical. You...

meditation is hard as the rls will not let me be at peace to try, maybe in the future it will. Maybe look into Tai Chi. It's a rhythmical exercise. I don't think regular martial arts would help much because it's intended to hype you up but Tai Chi is more of a moving meditation combining movement, ...
