Sleep disorders have been described in migraine patients. Among sleep disorders RLS has been reported in up to one-third of migraineurs. Adverse effects of anti migraine therapy by dopamine antagonists can not fully explain this association. Therefore we present the hypothesis that RLS and migraine may have a joint origin. The hypothesis is supported by: (1) the same genetic origin for migraine without aura and RLS in single Italian family on chromosome 14q21; this gene codes survival motor neuron-interacting protein 1 (SIP1) which can play role in both diseases. (2) Correlation of both RLS and migraine with fibromyalgia. (3) Alteration of cortical excitability in both migraine and RLS.
