I had RLS for a few months and my GP suggested blood tests for lack of vitamin D the blood test came back ok I also had blood tests for anemia which came back as 10 instead of 50, I started a course of Iron Tablets and within a few days my RLS had disappeared hope this is of some use to any of you.
