NOT UNUSUAL: Associated co-morbidities can include peripheral neuropathy, but does not necessarily make the RLS exacerbate. However, important that the underlying etiology be discovered by appropriate testing so that treatment can be initiated. Diligent searching can almost invariably these days, uncover causation, and it is worthwhile, as some conditions can be reversed.

Possibly: It is certainly possible. It would be best to get checked out by a neurologist, who can potentially prescribe meds to help these conditions.
