Your GP can do that

Your GP surgery. If they refuse, refer them to NHS and NICE cks guidance on RLS.

My GP knows nothing about RLS but was happy to arrange blood analysis. I have to ask for results as receptionist says ‘it’s normal or Dr would tell you’. Insist on having the numbers. Last time I had Ferritin at over 350 and Dr insists on me having a check now!

Not what you're looking for?
