Suggest Treatment For Restless Leg Syndrome
My husband suffers terribly for many years from restless leg syndrome. It is excruciating for me to watch him go through such torment. He has used Requip for years (says it does give him some relief) - gave up on Gabapentin which he tried recently. I believe that he should try Marijuana but he is against it. Do you have any suggestions? He is 76 and otherwise healthy. kar

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the symptom that your husband has got could be due to fibromyalgia or it could be psycho neurotic syndrome what the medicine is going on (Gabapentin) is okay and no need to try any narcotic drug for that he has to come out of the stress, and anxiety, hope this information helps.
