I would like to respectively remind everyone that there is NO scientific

evidence that RLS leads to Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease and RLS

are both COMMON conditons; BUT, THERE IS NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THAT THEY ARE

RELATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, we use medications to treat RLS that are also used to treat Parkinson's

disease BUT that is where the " similarity " stops!
