Welcome Lynn PWP are all different with respect to effectiveness of meds and progress of the disease. They helped me on the first dose but never again. I understand that tremor is the most difficult to treat. Two DBS (deep brain stimulation) brain surgeries in 2003 almost completely stopped my bilateral tremors, although it still get some minimal movement. DBS results in everything from death (uncommon), stroke, infection to getting your life back. One size does not fit all.

Hello, my name is Lynn. I was diagnosed with PD 3 years ago. I found this group when I was looking up some information on PD. I Am hoping to get some helpful feedback from others who also have the disease How is the medication working for others? It doesn't seem to help me much. Should it make the tremors quiet down completely? I'm sure I will have lots of other questions, but they will come later. Thanks in advance......Lynn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
