To give the readers some perspective, my symptoms were so bad that 1 week before Rick E. passed away I tried the same thing and failed. Thhis week, I put sheet rock in a bedroom in my house and only normal aches andd pains. No tremors.

I'm normally a minimalist when it comes to medication and the N'gist had to talk long and hard to get me to take what is normaly a med for people who were depressed. Thanks Dr. for your persitance that I try it.


Ill keep posting the progress (I hope) as and/if it keeps up.

Another update; Still no tremors since 09 Jan when the Mirazapine was added to the other meds but still the other PD symptoms remain. HOWEVERI'll take this any day. It has given me back a large portion of my life. I can do physical labour 75% of a work day, minor of course. Still no negative side effects that I can identify or connect with the anti depresant.

I wonder if it is the Mirazapine or would other anti depresants do the same or is it my body chemistry or just plain luck that it is doing this for me?

fINALLY, I have been able to quit drinking with a straw and don't feel uncomfortable when we go out for dinnder. I'll keep updating this as the PD does what it does.. Here's hoping.
