There is an interesting discussion on this issue on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/kratom/comment ... relief_in/
I can't weigh in, as I've never used Cannabis. Plus this discussion is about chronic pain, not RLS relief. However, my understanding is that effective RLS medications often involve pain relief. I know that kratom gives me total relief from RLS symptoms.
Anyway, I thought the discussion might be of interest to RLS sufferers. Wishing everyone the best for a peaceful day (and night!)

Re: Is Kratom or Cannabis better for chronic pain?
Thanks Mary. Interesting. About what I expected - kratom is the real thing, whereas high-CBD cannabis can be good for neurological pain; and everyone is different.
