What Causes Tinging Sensations At Bottom Of The Feet?

default
Posted on Mon, 21 Apr 2014
Question: I have had Parkinson's for 10 years. I get tinging sensation in the nights - especially in the bottom of the feet (most of the times) and some times in the arms and lower legs. I only get this tangling sensation during OFF-Time of my PD medication. This tingling sensation is causing me lot of frustration in the nights as I can not sleep in the night. I am currently on Stalevo, Sinemet (100/25), Sifffrol 2.25 mg and Endep 25mg. Do you have any suggestion that will help me with the tingling sensation ? I also feel irritable in the nights and can not lie on the bed. so, I so, I sit in a chair most of the night and only get to sleep from early in the morning (4/5AM) till 8/9 AM.
