Thyroid medication

I have Hashimoto’s thyroid disease and have just recently been put on Levothyroxine even though I was diagnosed many years ago. My question is this; does anyone know if that medication is known to aggravate RLS symptoms? I feel like it has done that to me but it’s so hard to tell because I rarely have more than two consistent nights, be they good or bad.
