Rayilyn, I agree with you. Each of us has a different reaction to each drug and what works for one does not for the other. Believe it or not my tremor has worsened since the September 11 terrorist acts. I am not afraid of what the future holds but am so terribly sad for all those who lost loved ones and for the workers trying to clean up the horrific mess in Manhattan and I hate to see our young men go off to fight an enemy who is certainly Satan's advocate. Then I remind myself that although 7000 died 20,000 managed to escape the Towers. Anyway I'm trying to not let stress take over and that's a pretty hard thing to accomplish. Possibly the drugs react negatively as the stress increases or vice-versa. I am noting all the good suggestions those on the List are passing on and will be seeing my neuro soon. I will gladly give up taking all drugs once I talk to him about it and show him some of the email I have received regarding the foot dystonia. Surely getting rid of the pain in my feet merits trying something different. I will be glad to throw out the steriod. I've taken it off and on for a couple of years because my hands from time to time become useless - even opening a door or buttoning my clothes is so painful that I resort to the Presnesone again and again. My main complaints with PD are the toe dystonia, the pain in my hands, the tremor and my inability to sleep through the night. I can't really complain. Others have it so much worse. I do appreciate your imput.
