Is it safe to consume alcohol or does it make the condition worse?

It would be more down to what medication you receive so best have a look at your info leaflet or contact your GP or pharmacist, but alcohol in moderation as always. I find my meds will affect me after 1 drink so best be sensible :)

It's rumored a few ounces of red wine can help with tremors (if medication allows.)

Red wine is fine for me, too much of anything else is a no go. Drooping right face isn't attractive when out in nice places, funny to watch people's reactions to it though! 😅

Not what you're looking for?
