My thanks to @ajn and @stav50 for starting this thread and the advice/info in here. I was advised ages ago that cannabis is a treatment for one of my conditions but, as we’ve seen, despite the “legalisation”, getting it on NHS is just impossible. I tried. Failed.
Was desperate so tried growing my own. This worked fine on primary symptoms, giving instant relief, unlike various NHS approved medicines. However, the whole process of vaping and the so-called “highs” were repulsive. Like @Ioniq I was unable to walk and dangerously confused. Obviously affects me differently to others – a most unenjoyable experience and to be avoided
Wanted to try something from a proper medical source but, at the time, only way to do this was through attending private clinics in central London. It is impossible for me to make that journey. So, very encouraged that Medbud and similar are working now. Will look into it via links here.
The condition is Willis Ekbom syndrome. aka the absurdly and inaccurately called Restless Leg Syndrome. That name makes people think you get an occasional itch in leg. In reality, it affects the entire nervous system and body and is a life-changing and sometimes life-destroying condition.
