Kratom has been nothing short of miraculous
Posted: Mon Jun 13, 2016 9:12 pm
All,
I wanted to share my experience with Kratom:
Background- I have Periodic Limb Movement Disorder...not RLS. I took Mirapex for about 7 years and over the last year it hasn't been as effective. Over the past few months I have tried multiple opiates (not very large doses to due my doc being conservative) and Horizant and regular Gabapentin...both of which made me too groggy and depressed. The opiates didn't do enough. I spent 5 weeks weaning from 3 mirapex pills (.125) down to 1 .125 pill about 5 weeks ago. Getting off that last mirapex pill was brutal...my movements were so bad my wife could not share a bed (even with some opiates).
A little over a week ago, I began kratom...I started with a gram and needed it a few times per night. This helped with the movements (my wife could share bed with me) but I had a hard time falling asleep.
I then slowly upped by dose to 6 grams just before bed and I typically wake up around 3-4 am and take just 1 more gram.
I feel the best I have ever felt in over a year. My wife says my movements are very minor, if she even notices them. I am taking no pharmaceuticals at all for sleep or movements. It feels miraculous. I have more energy than I have had in such a long time. My brain is working better.
I am using Red vein borneo strain.
I just wanted to share my experience and hope it helps someone else.
