🦵🌙 Restless Legs Syndrome: more than a sleep complaint
RLS affects ~3% of adults and is frequently missed or misdiagnosed as insomnia or anxiety. The latest evidence underscores three practical shifts: think iron (even when "normal"), choose gabapentinoids first, and beware dopaminergic augmentation.
For internists and frontline clinicians, recognizing RLS early can meaningfully improve sleep, mood, and quality of life—and may even reduce downstream cardiovascular risk. 🧠🩺💤
