Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

I'm a regular guy....57 yo..educated...suffering with this terrible condition for to many years...I was hopeless...then I found medical marijuana...I don't smoke...I eat a medicated candy before going to bed...a friend of mine with cancer recomended...I've been without getting out my bed..NOT EVEN ONCE..during the night for 6 month...I am very lucky to live in California where medical marijuana is legal....take action, you deserve it....peace....and Good Night...

Awesome maybe you know what I've been trying to find out: is it a sativa or an indica strain you using? And even better, you have an edible form - who makes it?

I have tried smoking a few times, and it worked a number of times and then 3 times in a row it made the RLS worse so I stopped. I found out later that one of the varieties I used was sativa-dominant and the other was an indica, but I promptly forgot which was which.

I want to try it again, only not smoking, so I was about to begin the dual process of finding out which strain to use and finding a supplier of an edible form who actually paid attention to which strain went into the edible product. Maybe you can help?

OK - I know now it's Sativa strains that work for RLS; and to avoid Indicas at all costs. (see my thread sativa vs indica). I'd still like to know more about your "medicated candy".

I have tried eating it in brownies. I prefer smoking it for it acts within minutes. And when WED pain hits me i want it gone now!

Yup, eating didn't't work for me. Too hard to adjust the dose, maybe. I'm not sure the exact problem.
