    • Close Parkinson's Disease

      I'm 37, mom of 2 young kids, married & work full time. In 2003 I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, and by 2006 my doctor started saying MS. 4 neurologists later, not MS and not stroke, I was back to stress and FMS. In April 2008 I finally saw a new neuro specializing with movement disorder patients who said it is too soon to know if I have Parkinson's or not, but I definitely have a movement disorder. I look forward to learning much from the people here at DailyStrength.

      Treatments

      Requip Working / Worked
      Requip was wearing off too soon, going to XL to see if peak dyskinesias will go away
      Baclofen Considering
      Doc wants to get the Requip XL going and then have me try this for my dystonia... well see how it goes
    • Close Dystonia

      Have had stiffness/rigidity/slowness since 2003- it worsened considerably in 2006 with new middle of the night toe twisting and arch pitching dystonia, then to fingers/palms about 8 months later. I also get occassional neck cramps- but not twisting, just the charley horse kind

      Treatments

      Baclofen Working / Worked
      my doc wants me to start it in a couple of weeks (in addition to Requip XL) to see if my dystonia will get better. will see....
