That's a great question! The search results don't specifically address coffee and Parkinson's tremors, but here's what is known about tremors and substances that can influence them.

Parkinson's tremors are "resting tremors," meaning they tend to show up when the body is at rest and can actually calm down during movement or sleep. Caffeine is a stimulant, and stimulants can increase nervous system activity, which may potentially worsen tremors for some people. However, everyone's experience is different.

Here are a few things worth considering:

- Talk to your neurologist about caffeine intake, as they can give personalized guidance
- Track your symptoms after drinking coffee to see if there's a pattern
- Stress and anxiety can also worsen tremors, and caffeine can sometimes increase anxiety

It's always best to discuss any dietary concerns with your doctor, as they know your full treatment picture and can give the most tailored advice.
