The only relief you can get from these uncomfortable feelings is to move your legs. It gets even worse when you try to sleep, disrupting your rest on and off all night long. Restless leg syndrome affects as many as 12 million people in the country. It's a condition that can leave you feeling tired and irritable from a lack of restful sleep. It can make you feel like you're going out of your mind-though, I assure you, you're not. It can also have more serious health consequences. There is a link between RLS and heart disease. People who experience RLS symptoms every night are more likely to develop heart disease than those who do not have RLS. Researchers balanced their results for many other possible factors, but the link between RLS and heart disease remained strong. 1
