OK, the tremor seems to have straightened itself out. Near as I can figure, I must have just had some temporary imbalance that got fixed with the next two doses of Stalevo. But when I woke up this morning, at a time when I'm at my lowest level of dopamine, no tremor. So we'll say that's taken care of.
That's the good news.
The bad news... I was taking my 6pm Stalevo last night. Only I was taking it at 7:30 because I had forgotten to take it at 6. I filled up a glass of water, took the pill, swallowed about half the glass...
Now, the next step would be to dump the remaining water in the sink and put the glass on the counter.
I dumped the water onto the counter and put the glass into the sink.

An Unexpected Christmas 'Gift' -- TREMOR!!!
I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease nearly 11 years ago. And for all that time, tremor has never been a problem for me. Every now and then, just a dab in my right thumb, maybe my forefinger.
Today is Christmas. I was just settling down to plow through a delicious prime rib sammich, when all of a sudden my right hand starts shaking. Also my left hand. They don't shake all the time, as you'll see in the video.
