Guest guest Posted May 22, 1999 Report Share Posted May 22, 1999 I fail to see how referring to this disorder as Ekbom Syndrome is going to help us gain anything. RLS is finally receiving a wider understanding and publicity in both the popular press and within the medical profession. Much of this is due to the efforts of the RLS Foundation. I think it is significant that the English term " Restless Leg Syndrome " is even used in Germany. To change most commonly used name now seems counter-productive to me. Besides, Restless Legs, is at least somewhat descriptive. Who would understand anything about your disorder if you call it " Ekbom Syndrome " ? --, _____________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
