Up to full dosage now!!!!

Greetings!!!
It's been almost 2 months now since I started the Pimidone, I'm up to the full dosage that the doctor wanted me to work up to, and I have to say....I AM LOVING THIS!!!! It has been amazingly wonderful to have control over my hands again. I still have times where when I am stress or drank too much regular coffee at work, the tremors show up again, but when I'm not stressed or loaded up on caffine, my hands are almost always rock steady. I have noticed towards the end of the day or first thing in the morning before I take the medicine, the tremors are there, but love the Primidone!!!
REAL TEST....this past Friday night!! I had a date with someone and I REALLY didn't want the tremors to show. I knew it would be way past when I normally would take the medicine by the time I got home, so I went ahead and took it before the date. It worked!!! Had a great evening getting to know someone very handsome and nice, and the tremors seemed to stay away. Normally, that would have been stressful enough to kick it all in. I am so thankful for scientists!!! lol
Now, I go until August 20th with the medicine. That day will be a review day with the doctor to see how things are going. I am curious to see if the medicine will remain effective at this level or if as time goes on, the dosage will need to be increased.

So until next time.......Happy waves!
