A member asked:
Dr conf severe vitamin d def today and thinks may cause rls like symptoms in day. prescribed highest dosage of vit d and advised symptoms should go in 3 months. does vit d deficiency=rls like pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could: There are a few recent studies which suggest there may be a link. One of them showed that symptoms of restless leg syndrome actually improved with vitamin d repletion. Even if your rls symptoms dont go away with vit d repletion it would be good to have your levels restored anyway, so there is nothing to lose by taking the vit d. GOOD LUCK!
