Periodic limb movement disorder is a condition characterized by rhythmic movements of the leg during sleep. Although it is not a life threatening illness, this disorder can influence a person\u2019s life quality greatly because of the poor sleep, continuous fatigue and other related symptoms.<\/p>\n
Most patients describe it as unusual leg spasms or movements that will cause them to wake from their sleep. There are various tests that can be performed during sleep to diagnose this condition.<\/p>\n
The condition may occur regularly or sporadically with certain triggers such as stress or fatigue. People usually have episodes that can last a few minutes or even more during their sleep.<\/p>\n
Although there isn\u2019t much known about this condition, it does tend to appear in people who are suffering from Parkinson\u2019s disease, take certain medication or even suffer from narcolepsy, but there\u2019s also a group of people who seems to have no underlying condition that may cause this.<\/p>\n
