I am interested in any help/info anyone can offer re. severe dystonia type cramping. my mother, who has been diagnosed with Parkinsons for 9 years, suffers everyday for prolonged periods from major muscle cramps, mainly up one side of her body. she takes sinemet and sinemet CR and valium and Permax and Prozac. She has tried many variations on timing and medication but seems to be getting worse, and the pain is unbearable. Other people I know with PD don't seem to have this same situation. Any ideas? Feedback would be great. She feels life is not worthwhile and it is a most awful situation. thank you... [log in to unmask]
