As for me that’s a tough question because we all are so different. Maybe a change in you’re meds, if so you need to talk to you’re Neurologist.

For me mine are really triggered by stress, anxiety, anger any emotion that takes me out of my comfort zone.

It will be interesting to hear what others have to say. Is it just on one side?

Try the hand mudra formed by touching the tip of your index finger to the tip of the thumb, both hands. Hold lightly and breathe. That one helps me and it's easy. Another one specifically for Parkinson tremors is Vayu mudra... bend the index finger so the tip is at the base of the thumb, then lay the thumb on top of the bent index finger. YouTube search 'mudras for tremors' to watch videos.

Propranalol (Inderal) works wonders for me whenever I'm in a situation where I know my tremor my be particularly active. I take just 10 mg an hour before I need to be steady and I can go up to 3-4 hours without a single shake. The down side of propranolol is that it lowers your blood pressure quite a bit, which may be a deal-breaker for some. Worth a try.

Getting up and walking about, getting absorbed in a book, conversation or something else, and to relax - marijuana
