From the RLS-UK briefing paper

[Rameau]

This paragraph from the RLS-UK paper to the All Party Parliamentary Group stood out :

"Research by the London School of Economics as part of The European Brain Council’s ‘Value of Treatment' white paper identified that the societal annual cost of RLS to be second only to dementia and above conditions such as stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and epilepsy."

It went on to say that "Specific analysis of cases showed that significant cost savings could be made by tackling inadequacies in the current management pathway and treatment of RLS"

👍👍.

Are you able to give me a link to the RLS-U.K. paper please?

[Rameau in reply to Kakally]

The extract was from a briefing paper (in PDF form) sent to RLS-UK members a couple of days ago. This site does not appear to allow me to upload it and I have not (yet) seen it referred to on the RLS-UK website.
