Regarding tremor- it was my first sign of pd and I had it for a long time
before noticing any other signs.  Falling was next.  Both got worse and I was
diagnost about 10 years ago.  Believe it or not, when I had to stop all other
medication for a time (on a test for a new drug) the only thing I could take
was Benedryl.  Taking it in the daytime of course made me sleepy but it really
helped the tremor.   I'm back on 3/100's Senimet and a full dose of Mirapex (1
& 1/2 mg) and a 50 MG cap of Benedrl and my tremor is virtually GONE.  The
Mirapex made me react like the Enegizer Bunny after sitting in a chair doped
with Large doses of Sinemet CR.   What works for one does not always work for
someone else but keep trying new drugs like Mirapex and old ones like
Benedryl.    [log in to unmask]
