Has dyskinesia got you down?

Or in better terms

got you up?? 

It is hard to relax when your muscles are dancing to their own beat, if only it would share the music with you. I don’t have anything that I know of yet that will stop it in its tracks, but there are some things that help. My best helper is my wonderful weighted blanket.

 

It sounds silly and I don’t know why it works, but it does. The consistent pressure and weight on your body is very helpful. Just make sure someone is around to help you get out from underneath it!

 

I first noticed this in the dentist chair, it seems weird to love the x-ray vest so much that you wonder if you can get out the front door with it. But, instead of committing larceny, it occurred to me to look into another solution. I also use this as a sleeping companion. It is easier to manage around than a body pillow and I can tuck & bunch it as needed.

 

Below is a link for the one I have and love. Check it out!
