Has anyone seen this? It's probably fairly old news.

Don't know if it's relevant to PD but it kinda ties in with the Prof Gershom Zajicek theory I posted earlier.

I've gone back to the classical guitar after giving it up because my left hand was giving me trouble. I feel that my tremors are not quite as bad after a practice session. Or am I just experiencing some kind of placebo effect or afterglow? Has anybody experienced this too?

Keep strumming away. I started playing video games again because it is a great way to strengthen hand, eye and mind coordination. It took me a year to become competitive but I have the time.

I play bass in a jazz group. My left hand gives me trouble. I can't play as well as I once did. Sinemet makes playing easier. But between tunes my left hand shakes like crazy. Still I persevere. After a couple of hours of music my brain feels lit up and I'm in a much better mood. I can actually feel my brain being turned on.
