Default Painful dystonia

In the past week I have been having painful dystonia in my leg, It causes me a lot of discomfort and I can't keep still, it twists my foot and pulls my body forward. I have called my MDS but have not yet been able to talk with her or make an appointment. I have just stopped the medication Luvox (fluvoxlamine) a week ago because it was giving me side effects, I had only been taking it for a month and was having difficulty breathing and some involuntary movement. My question is for those of you who suffer from dystonia as a symptom of P.D. What have you tried that has given you some relief? I am presently taking Levodopa/Carbidopa 100mg/25mg 4 times a day, requip 3 mgs 4 times a day. Up until this past couple of weeks it seemed to take care of my Parkinson's symptoms although it was wearing off after about 3 1/2 hrs. I have tried massage and it did seem to help but only temporarily. A few hours after the massage it returned with a vengeance.
