    OMG, I deal with this several times a day! I thought I was going crazy because I can’t find a doctor who can help me with this. But I know it’s from the c/l because when I was in the hospital a few months ago, I didn’t take any PD meds and it didn’t happen at all (on my last day there, I took a c/l tablet and I started thrashing again…they thought I was having a seizure). My new neuro put me on amantadine recently but that’s not helping me at all. The thrashing seems to get worse when I try to exercise and whenever I eat anything with sugar in it or when I’m super stressed. I’ve been dealing with this nightmare everyday for about a year and I really hope I can find a doctor who will help me. Thanks so much for posting this!

    I notice that when I eat a lot of salt, my feet and lower legs get swollen. But they usually go back to normal after about a day (and back to my regular diet). Maybe try to have him cut way down on salt for a week and see if that helps. If it doesn’t, then it may be time to talk to the doctor.

    Well, I just found this article, so it looks like it’s best to stick with the supplement, not the essential oil…
