Early on, I was prescribed Propranolol. It did nothing for the tremor. Every male in my family has high blood pressure. This has been determined to be a genetic trait in my family. I now take Metoprolol due to having PD, which as I understand is a more selective beta-blocker yet still Propranolol. It works wonders on the high blood pressure but as my luck would have it, nothing for the tremor. As a matter of fact, nothing I have tried helps with the tremor. All I can really say is try it. If it works, great! If not move on to the next one or learn to live with the tremor. Big choice, huh?

I have a tremor only in my left hand. If I twiddle my thumbs, the tremor disappears. I've been using this technique for five years as a way to mask my malady. It also has the added benefit of making me look contemplative and deep . . . . Unfortunately I haven't figured out a way to twiddle my thumbs and type at the saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame time.
