jennifer i am also a parkie 56/8. i also have problems with stress related tremors. fortunately i was able to retire 3 years ago and this has been very helpful. my tremors are on my right side but i am blessed to be left handed. two years ago, i started taking mirapex . this allowed me to stop the sinemet cr that i was on. i also take eldepyrl and amantadine. regretfully, this has not helped my tremor under stressful situations. i also have a problem with cold weather. it exacerbates the tremor in my right arm and leg. when i am cold and stressed, hold on to your hat. this has caused me to make every effort to avoid the cold. to avoid stress i have taken the attitude of "don't worry, be happy". IT WORKS !!! regards murph p.s. not using caps is useful, since i type with one finger. lol
