Movers and shakers easy listening and puts a smile on your face when feeling down. Do any listeners suffering with tremor dominant Parkinson's find that the tremors stop when sleeping ? Neurologist not interested just wondering if there's any research into why the tremors stop when sleeping

Has anyone else tried the natural herb centre, as my husband had bad reactions on medication, exactly the same reactions. Would be interested to know. Thank you.

The love of my life for the last 17 years was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease nearly 4 years ago, at age 52. He had a stooped posture, tremors, muscle stiffness, horrible driving skills, and slow movement. He was placed on Sinemet 50/200 at night for 7 months and then Sifrol and rotigotine were introduced which replaced the Sinemet but he had to stop due to side effects. He started having hallucinations, lost touch with reality. Suspecting it was the medications I took him off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) In March this year his primary physician suggested we started him on Natural Herbs Centre ( Naturalherbscentre. com ) Ayurveda Parkinson’s Protocol which eased his anxiety a bit, i’m happy to report this PD Ayurvedic treatment worked very effectively. His Parkinson’s is totally under control, he had a total decline in symptoms, the tremors, shaking, stiffness, slow movement and speech problems stopped. I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you
