Restless Leg Syndrome?

[Crocus]

Hi, I ran into one of the boys' friend's mother this afternoon in the supermarket and she told me that she suffers from this syndrome - Restless Leg Syndrome. Apparently one has the urge to move your leg/s the whole time because of a itching or prickling feeling. Are anyone perhaps familiar with this?

Hi Crocus, my neighbour has this, but only at night when she is in bed and she can't sleep. Can imagine it is quite distressing.

I've googled it actually, and there's a lot of causes according to these links:

My poor dad suffered badly from this complaint.
