Https://rls-uk.org/faqs says "Most people with Restless Legs Syndrome have the "idiopathic" form - meaning there's no known cause. Consequently, there is currently no known risk of RLS progressing to more serious conditions, such as Parkinson's disease."
Just wondered as they are both dopamine dependent, occur in the basal ganglia and have a genetic basis, is there a known risk of coexistence? Yes, my phraseology of RLS progressing to Parkinson’s is poor use of English.
