CBD oil stops my RLS

Hi, I've been meaning to post for a while. I've had RLS since I was a teenager. Seen doctors and been prescribed Quinine (didn't work), some thought it was still a psychological condition(!) and I genuinely thought I'd just have to put up with it...

Then CBD oil hit the market and everything changed. When the legs 'start' I take around 3-4 pipettes of Jacob Hooey 5% CBD oil under my tongue. NB for me it does take more than you're recommended to take on the bottle, so perhaps work up to dose that works for you? Leave under your tongue for a couple of mins and swallow. Sometimes it takes a second dose, but my symptoms completely disappear within 10-15mins! Every. Single. Time.

It really works for me; a natural, non-pharma solution, and hopefully other people will find this post useful.

I googled it and it is THC free (below .05%). Not available in the USA but hopefully easy to get for folks elsewhere.

_Hi,_ some 12 months and 6 months ago, I tried CBD _+ minor THC, up to CBD 50% _+ THC 50%. It looks I had some relief at the time . It looked not persistent, though; gave up forever, maybe. Problem, I found out, would be knowing the correct dosage and combination; Nobody knows; it would be a too long way trying!

all the best and good luck
