Description

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurological disorder characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs, typically accompanied by unpleasant sensations such as tingling, aching, or crawling. 

Lab testing is important to check for conditions that may be causing RLS, such as anemia, diabetes, and kidney problems. Blood tests may also measure levels of iron, ferritin, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), vitamin B-12, folate, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine.

The following test are included in this panel:

  • Iron
  • Ferritin
  • TSH
  • B12
  • Folate
  • CMP

Fasting not required.
