Restless foot

Hi ugly sick old men, lately I've had an annoying problem with my right foot, and especially in bed at night I can't keep it still. Definitely a form of dyskinesia caused by Levodopa.

Tips for solving the problem? Thank you .

Do you have Parkinson’s? If so carbodopa/levodopa may provide relief during the on period. But nothing works great for me during the off period. I do find some relief using magnesium lotion and cbd lotion together at bed time. Also castor oil may help or frankincense oil. I’m not an ugly sick old man, but rather a beautiful senior warrior woman.

In the off phase I don't have this problem.

don’t take levadopa for three hours before going to bed

That's more or less what I do I take the last dose at 8:00 in the evening and the foot discomfort starts after two hours

take smaller doses and further apart later in the day. Sounds like too much dopamine to me.

You need more around midday as the overnight natural replenishing runs out, but as night goes on you’ll be making some of your own so on top of the meds it might be too much.
