I have been quite distracted and have thought of answering many threads as I read but haven't, which seems to be a permanent characteristic now.

Anyway, Sinemet helps both bradykinesia and rigidity. I do not have a regular tremor, but do recall my neurologist saying way back at diagnosis that tremor is harder to control. Bradykinesia and rigidity are very linked together for me and dystonia is the worst of both. Sinemet is the only relief. The agonists used to work alone, so they are useful for some for awhile without sinemet. I took eldepryl and mirapex before taking sinemet.
