I have PD on the right side also but it causes very little problem in using my right right hand. the only time I have tremors is when my hand / arm is 'resting'. How about the rest of you??? Bob Chapman Bob, I have more problems with stiffness than tremors. Maybe it is easier to do things with a "tremor" hand. I have learned to do many things with my left hand, but still eat slowly & usually am only half done with a meal when everyone else is finished. Sometimes I'm hungry by the time that I get home from a restaurant !! I would also like to know if anyone takes more than 4.5 mg of Mirapex per day. Is there a 2 mg pill? Thanks, nancy v
