I used to do that in the morning. Now I take one dose of leva/carba and a half dose of Amantedine before bed. The result is I can move around a bit in bed while sleeping , Get to sleep right away, no more weird dreams, and easy to get out of bed through the night and in the morning it lasts until my first dose of the day kicks in, well most of the time.

Hi there. My husband has hand tremors as soon as he wakes but it subsides a lot once he's had his first meds. The anxiety upon waking comes and goes. I'm getting him to do the special deep breathing for the vagus nerve as this is supposed to help with anxiety. He does fast walking later in the morning which has improved many of his overall symptoms (in addition to his PD meds of course). Hope this helps.

Thank you - I've also started walking 7h00 in the morning and it helps a lot - I will add the breathing exercise
