Pot Smoking

Post by wslocum27 »

I was just wondering if any one has used pot to help with rls. I was a former smoker and I dont remember having as much issues with rls. occasionally I would have an attack. Problem was, I smoked to much and it caused different problems, money, etc.... Anyway just thought I would ask. dont want to offend anyone with illegal substances, but if it helps............

Thanks for posting that link, snowbound. WS, not sure how familiar you are with message boards like this one. If you are, ignore the following. If you aren't, in the post above me, snowbound put a link to a topic where people spent a lot of time talking about MJ. Reading that will help you a bunch. Feel free to post in that thread once you've read it.
