Does anyone have trouble with typing? I can't seem to keep my fingers on the correct letters and I don't seem to apply the same pressure to different letters as I type. I also seem to to inadvertently shake when trying to type. I make so many errors. Could this be a Parkinson's symptom? Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Just have to keep on plugging along, and do the best you can.
