Questions

[fidgetyfeet]

Hi, I have two questions to any medical people out there.

1 Is there a link between RLS and long term anxiety?

2 Is there a link between RLS and long term leg pain, caused by years of wrong posture and degenerative disc disease?

If anyone can answer, I'd be grateful.

I'm not a medical person but my answer to your questions would be

- there is a link between long term anxiety and rls. But it is the reverse situation - if you have rls you will be anxious long term. Rls is certainly exacerbated by stress.

Some people think there is a link between leg injury and certainly back surgery and rls but as far as I'm aware there is no research on this.

I don't think ordinary wear and tear causes rls.

Hi

I've had long term anxiety and I believe my nervous system is shot to pieces.
