See below: There are many conditions that can mimic restless legs syndrome (rls), in part. For example, peripheral polyneuropathies, multi-level radiculopathies, leg cramps at night, anxiety disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, akathisia, among other conditions can mimic RLS to a certain extent.
