Hi Dianic. I am 85. Just wondered your age. I may be having a new valve put in. I should know more after Thursday. Have you spoken with you Movement doctor about this? Doing the DBS? Is your primary doctor giving you anything for the anxiety? Rytary can cause anxiety. I stopped it because of that. Maybe that is what is going on.

I am on 0.125 1/2 tablet of Clonazepam for my anxiety. I was not sure it was helping so we added the other 1/2 at night. Still not sure I feel any different. Still have tremors. So it has not helped that.

Hello. My hand tremors are not that severe but noticeable when I paint.I do have tremors in my right foot now as I am typing this. I work as a nurse and had a stressful event happen and after it was all resolved and over I noticed my tremors were more severe. So yes stress and anxiety can increase tremors, at least for me.
