xaxa My dystonia started before I was dxs four years ago. Initially it was a twisting and turning in my foot but as time has gone by it has moved to my leg, hip, lower back and arm on my left side. I started Requip when dxs and 18 months later started Levo/Carbo. In the last year it has increased in intensity and my Levo/Carbo has been increased to 6 100/25 a day and often at night if I wake up I will take another one. (which is why I am up right now at 3:30 a.m.) I am 55 and am worried about how bad this can get and how much Levo/Carbo my body will take before I start to have side effects. So much for the golden years.
