So When I Woke Up My Foot Was Moving Around By Itself

I'm guessing this is not good if I am trying to convince myself I don't have PD.

It felt kind of anxious. Thinking back, maybe I could have made it stop, but what I did was swing it under my opposite leg so it stopped.

I do not see anything that points towards PD yet. Could be Restless Legs Syndrome. There is treatment, medication, can't cure it, but it is not any where near as bad as PD. Still very annoying. I believe there is a group forum for restless legs here at Health Unlocked .

I didn't think I had PD because I don't have any symptoms other than the left hand tremor. But then the DAT Scan showed the imbalance in the contralateral Substantia Nigra.

Thanks kaypeoh. I am praying for your well being. Good luck to both of us.

I'm leaning strongly toward VieLight but need a bit more info before committing. If we last long enough there should be stem cell or FUS tractotomy in the future.

I went with the $40 option. I point it at the back of my head while I use my recumbent bike (for 10 minutes).

Don't look at the light. The IR is bad for your eyes.

Not what you're looking for?
