Mmj and RLS
For years now I have suffered from Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). RLS has caused many sleepless nights and many tiring days (due to the loss of sleep). I experiance this about 3~4 times a week and somtimes more. It's somtimes so bad that I have thoughts about cutting off my leg, then I would be happy and free of this. Before I was prescribed medication I would beat my legs to get rid of the crawling restless feeling. I have tried everything from Requip to Vicodin. They both work, but my doctor had me switch from Vicodin to Requip. The problem with Requip is that the next day my head feels a little cloudy and a little out of everything, somtimes as bad as not sleeping at all. The thing that seems to work the best is a little marijuana before I go to sleep. I usually wake up the next morning refreshed and ready to go (still a little on the cloudy side, but not nearly as bad as Requip). Would this be a legit excuse for mmj? I don't know much about the medical side of marijuana. Would I have to talk to my doctor about it? or go to a special doctor?
Thanks!
Also, I live in the socal area.
