Restless legs - lower back pain


Posted by Leigh on July 05, 2000 at 12:24:51:

I have tried marijuana for relief of RLS symptoms. It made my symptoms worse, much like taking benedryl did. The only relief I get is from narcs. Oxycontin and Lortab currently but I started out with Darvacet which worked for about 2 years. In addition to the restless legs I also have severe lower back pain which my Dr. says is a result of the restless legs. Have had MRI, x-rays etc... which show no bone, joint, disk or spine problems. Does anyone else out there suffer from this severe lower back pain with their RLS? Is there any hope that it will get better?
