Brilliant answer Ol cs
You describe the agony of dystonia so well .Thank you. And your suggestions for remedy are extremely helpful.I can only add that my dystonia has been relieved by taking the dextromethorphan mentioned in another thread.
I used to get these awful symptoms every morning without fail,within 10 minutes of waking and again last thing at night.Each bout would last about half an hour and I would be dripping in sweat from coping with the pain.A dose of cough medicine containing the "said" ingredient has reduced my symptoms greatly. Massage helps but that isn`t always possible.A friend lent me an electric foot massager but by the time I had hobbled about fixing it up the dystonia had gone anyway,but if you can keep something similar in a place where you can access it immediately,then I am sure this might help.
Good luck...great suggestions already offered with the above posts.
