I have just had my results from my doctor which are as follows

Serum ferritin 111

Magnesium 0.84

Folate 12.4

Can anyone tell me if these are normal for a RLS sufferer please

Just looked up the mg and folate ranges on Medscape and everything looks good. Ferritin should be 75+ for those with RLS, so you’re golden😃

why didn't you ask the DR if it was normal for RLS. I know your ferritin level is ok, but I don't know about the other someone on this forum will no doubt tell you X

Because he is absolutely clueless and only had one other patient with RLS who he put on major drugs because that is all he knew about. He had never heard of iron deficiency and looked it up when I asked for certain blood tests. His response was ‘ oh it will let me do that for you’. But he wouldn’t do vit d and b as well need I say more. So no use asking him anything about RLS.
