Shirley, I'm no Dr. That said I will now voice my opinions. First my PWP was told iniatially essential tremors. I dissagreed for several reasons. So to appease me, mostly to prove me wrong the nuero put George on carbidopa/levadopa 25/100 1 tab 4 times a day. Nuero stated if it helps it's parkinsons if it doesn't help it is not PD. Within 7 days Georges tremors showed great improvement. However your 3 times a day may need to be tweaked up a bit. Just food for thought from our experience. Hugs Juanita CG for George 75/71/64 PS That nuero is no longer Georges nuero. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
