sorry, I misread the question from REM behaviour disorder as RLS.
The is the main symptom for my son. Instead of being disconnected from movement while you dream, you act out your dreams (so occuring during REM, unlike night terrors). I had done alot of research through resources from work, but it can be hard to find details online. It's associated with post-traumatic stress disorder...in the elderly: parkinsons...and of sleep disorders; narcolepsy. Those are the only 3 associations reported. Hope it helps.
