Following on from Libra's thread that I did'nt want to hijack I wondered if anyone can shed some light on how to manage foot dystonia (foot pulling down and turning inward, v painful in am) and more generalised dystonia. Neuro advised adding a sinemet cr in the night (gives headaches due to clenched teeth and nightmary dreams), gp thinks I should take quinine tabs, neither have helped, takes till my third meds of the day to get some relief and feel reasonably mobile. It feels like this posture is changing the shape of my foot. Have had internal dystonias for some time, those are worsening too, ........ in the mean time I am doing a rather strange hobble/shuffle punctuated by the odd yowl!

Pd certainly has a way of demolishing all dignity....
