My husband has had PD for about 5 years. For the past month he gets the worse toe cramps about 15 minutes after taking his meds. His big toe curls up and his other toes curl under. This happens for about 45 minutes and then goes away until he takes his next does. Does anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions on supplements to take?

I'm a new member also. Had pd for several years now. My toes do the same thing occasionally but only happens when I am low on my meds. I have found a couple of positions which I can relax the muscles that cause my toes to do this, but I have to be barefoot. Even then I have to concentrate very intensively on relaxing those certain muscles. When it happens out in public places I have to just find a place to be less obvious and after a while I can limp back to my vehicle and wait for it to go away. Just another aspect of life that makes me thankful for everything I can still do.
