Jim, it does not seem to be dystonia. I am not a medical professional. if it is sensitive to massage, it may well be informative to you to note where the pain emanates from. the muscle itself or the tendons endings. If we keep strain on muscles for long time, they tend to tear and become "sensitive". are both calves about the same? do you walk a lot? run? digression: the tasmar should have given sinemet much longer effective duration. how long did you try tasmar? best wishes, Ron ---------- >From: Bill James A___ <[log in to unmask]> >To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Re: Calf pain >Date: Sun, Mar 29, 1998, 8:41 AM > >Ron: The calf pain remains pretty constant throughout the day...
