I am having some difficulty with wrist / forearm pain that started when my neuro suggested artane (triphexyphenidyl, anti-cholenergeric) , after tritating up for 2 weeks my tremor was worse and had progressed to the left side, so I called doc & we titrated back down over 2 weeks. I have been working now with a double mouse / double screen / keyboard shortcut scheme (autocad engineering type work) but still having horrible pain. I am wondering if this could be a statin induced myapothy. so I stopped simvastatin yesterday. I am concerned about the cholesterol / PD relationship after the recent Penn State study http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25639598 that has been discussed here and elsewhere.
I have spent considerable time on this site in the last year since my Dx. and am amazed at the quality and quanitity of both subjective and objective information (with references that I can follow and substantiate) and am beginning to believe it (this site) can help me more than any other resource I have found (including my healthcare team). |

I am new to this whole process. is there a tutorial or guideline to using this site? I am not very computer literate outside of my field. I looked in what I thought are the obvious places, but whenever I try to do almost anything, reply, post, I get a bad answer, get stressed and give up. it took me about an hour and a half to post these messages, what with the miss-strokes and wiggling. I am investigating voice command for autocad, but with no luck so far..
