Pam Dyskinesias (strange involuntary movements) are the result of Sinemet/related drugs. Tremor can be very difficult to treat. After my DBS brain surgeries to control bi-lateral tremors I tried Stalevo (Comtan and Levodopa) and my abs started twitching. i don't take any PD meds as they only helped once.
