My symptoms were not restless leg syndrome but were due to iron deficiency anemia.  Severely low hemoglobin tests triggered endoscopy to search for Gastric intestinal bleed causes.  Results showed celiac not the scarier things they thought they would find.  

I seldom have gastric intestinal symptoms when exposed to gluten.  Primarily my reactions are related to absorption deficiencies which make it tougher to tell when I've been exposed to something accidentally.

Combination of short term iron supplements and long term gluten free diet have resolved my jumpy legs.

I wonder how many other people are taking neurological drugs to treat celiac symptoms.<br/><br/>

I do take medication for it and they are still not quite under control.  I also found out last July that I have celiac too. I follow the celiac plan faithfully as I have had a few instances that made me very sick.<br/><br/>

I was taught that restless leg syndrome was resulting from magnesium deficiency. Which would make sense why people with celiac would have it, considering the malabsorption issues we have before giving up gluten and healing.

In myself, I noticed it when I would consume excess caffeine, then restless leg syndrome would pop up.  Simply taking excess magnesium supplements for a couple of days does the trick--and backing off the caffeine.<br/><br/>

I also have osteoporosis and had 6 painful spinal  fractures in the past 2 years from malabsorption of nutrition over the years.  I go to a nutritionist and am taking many bone building vitamins.<br/><br/>

I was first informed that this was a 'circulatory problem' and was advised to drink red wine.  This seemed to alleviate what was 'happening' to my legs, however, as age grew, so did the strength of the discomfort.  Several years ago, my doctor informed me that what I had was restless leg syndrome.
I find particular interest in reading these articles, the search for what causes restless leg syndrome and the cure.<br/><br/>

It is an herbal lotion in a roll-on type bottle.  It has herbs to quell over-active nerves and also ones to relax muscles.  My Mom uses it for leg cramps and I tried it on my restless legs.  It worked great.  I was really surprised because it worked in like, 5 minutes.  I’ve tried lots of supplements and stuff and nothing has worked before.  The stuff is called Leg Relaxer.  You should probably try it for your restless legs. No sense dancing when you should be sleeping.<br/><br/>
