I agree with Jenna. "Is Restless Leg Syndrome a legitimate medical condition?" sounds good to me.

(I also agree with JZipp- when I first heard about it I was like "what???".)

I look forward to looking into it.

Or "legitimate."

 

I agree it's a good issue...

I like this a lot because when they first started talking about it as a medical condition, I found it laughable (and probably still do)... if only for the fact that there are probably other neurological reasons as to why it occurs and isn't about the legs themselves... I think we should change "real" to something like "valid" though...
