Any relationship: Restless Legs to Parkinson's

I dont know the answer but I think the disorders have different etiology.. Restless legs is a movemeant disorder of the brain and muscles. PD is a hormone dosorder of the brain, specifically the dopamine producing cells get destroyed by stuff that shouldnt be in the brain.

PD leads to movemeant symptoms, but logically I think its very rare for Restless Leg Symdrome to lead to PD.. Id say if you start getting PD symtoms or are still concerned talk to a neurologist!

Good luck :)

My husbands dr told him that a diagnosis of RLS is often one of the predictors of PD. His RLS began about 10 years before his PD diagnosis.
