Yes I have had numbness which started in my foot before dxs. It has also crept into my small toe and the one next to it as well. Shoes make it feel worse. In the summer when I wear sandals it doesn't bother me as much. The numbness and tingling has also affected me in my face, also on the left side but after getting on the meds that seemed to go away. That creeping feeling seems to be the progression of P.D. I was quite aware of it before
dxs. That was 5 years ago, so for 3 years prior to that my worst symptoms were numbness, dystonia, slowness, dragging of left foot and rigidity. Also, I had lost my sense of smell at least 10 years before these symptoms came into the picture. I find if I rest often its not too bad, also wear bigger shoes so that your toes have room to move. Unfortunately it has not gone away and at times it seems to be along the outside of my right foot. I try to keep exercising to keep the blood flowing. Hopefully it will slow things down.
