Hi Rayilyn, Marilyn, Murray and all..... I have dystonia in both of my feet which radiates up into the leg muscles, causing painful muscle spasms, and makes my toes do a little dance each to their own music! I have not taken any med's for Parkinson's for about a year now, and the dystonia is neither worse or better. I have had muscle tests (electrical -- what is that test called? I forget), and veinous tests (can't recall that name either!), which are all "normal." The neurologists cannot confirm the cause of the dystonia. It occurs mostly at night in bed -- however, if I have had to do a great deal of walking (as in Shopping), when I get to my car and sit down, the cramps often start, and makes it very difficult to even put my foot to the metal! The only thing that I have changed is to add magnesium oxide to my vitamin regimen....at the doctor's suggestion....however, it doesn't seem to help. Anybody have any other suggestions?
