Hi guys, I hope you are all alright and coping ok? I overdosed on oramorph recently but luckily my 19 yr old son and found me in time 😊after nearly 2 weeks in hospital and me requesting a drugs review and information on alternative pain relief. I've been looking at reiki for relief of muscle spasms. Does anybody have reiki? And do you find it helps in any way?
@Stumbler

Hi @laurat, and you're asking us how we are? You're the one whose recovering from an overdose! Who has been managing your pain medication to date? Oramorph sounds pretty hardcore, is this because you've exhausted the usual muscle relaxants to relieve spasticity? There's some details about the pain associated with MS here, which might help :- https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/pain There's not been much posted on Reiki, but it's one of those therapies that you have to try, before you discount it. You just don't know until you've tried.

The theory behind reiki is just nonsense. At least, that is what I believed until out of desperation I had a session on board ship. I had severely tingly legs which were ruining the holiday. The tingling disappeared after the session.
