Default Dystonia...advice needed

When your dystonia began, how did it feel to you. This is a personal question.

I am trying to figure out if my right forearm muscles and my right leg muscles are screaming at me because of fatigue of my ever worsening tremor, or if it is newly encroaching dystonia.

My "off" score this morning on the UPDRS was 55. My "on" score was 28. The reason it was so high "off" was due primarily to my tremor which is getting really bad and the reason I had been considering early DBS.

Thanks,
